News: Nintendo Europe Talk Revolution

More comments about there being still more to the Revolution than we've seen so far, as well as confirming the console will definately hit in 2006!
Nintendo Europe are looking ahead to 2006 in a new article on their site discussing the various delights the company has in store for the next twelve months (though annoyingly still nothing on Zelda beyond a "TBD" release date).
The company's listing of the Revolution as among the year's delights - as well as a "2006" release date on Nintendo Europe's Revolution mini-site does seem to confirm once and for all the console won't be slipping to early 2007 for Europe. Encouraging stuff - one year from now, Europeans will already be playing on the Revolution!
Date-wise, the article just says the console will launch on an "as-yet-unannounced date in 2006", and still say the console is only "code-named" Revolution, though the company could very possibly go with that as it's final name for the console, as they did with the DS.
Echoing comments made by Shigsy though, Nintendo once again finished by teasing us there was more suprises in store:
"We've already been given a sneak peek at its potential with the revelation of the groundbreaking one-handed controller with motion-sensitive technology. We already know that Revolution will let you play all your Nintendo GameCube titles and also a back catalogue of downloadable Nintendo classics. But if you think that's all there is to know about Revolution, think again... 2006 is going to be very interesting indeed.
