I asked Nintendo for years for an emulator. One that is perfect for playing it's best games. I even told them I'd pay for it, too. Some of the current PC emulators (the N64 ones especially), no matter how awesome, aren't very compatible and slow. The Revoulution gots built in compatibility for more then 20 years of great games (including some Sega and TG16 stuff). No matter how good I got at finding roms, picking the right plugins, and even playing a compatible game with a shitty controller. It still wasn't right. I'm glad that Nintendo finally listened to their fans and made this a reality.

Sure, backwards compatibilty is a 360 and PS2 feature (although, still not perfect). But, I hope Nintendo can get this right. That way, I can kick anyone's ass on Goldeneye 64 and instantly switch to Shadowgate (without hooking an old system up or firing up the PC). The Revolution has the potential to take the emulation crown from the PC.
