So...should we start emailing him about BG&E 2?

Even though I'm not a huge fan of Ubisoft games (well except for the fact that Red Steel looks great so far) it is great to see a developer so excited for the Revolution, and obviously putting alot behind it!

It is nice to see a company like Ubisoft supporting the Rev (or at least "pretty sure" about supporting it). Saying he's "pretty sure" they'll support the rev seems a little... eh... I don't know... I'd much prefer him to say "110% sure" but I guess he's been told not to say that...

One of the nice things - from Nintendo's perspective - about keeping everything behind the curtain, is that the impression of large amounts of third party support can be made... without actually having large amounts of third party support.

What I'm getting at, is that I think Ubisoft may be throwing this single game out there, with heavy amounts of help from Nintendo, to test the waters. They may not have anything else planned. In fact, Nintendo may not have anymore third parties on board for the rev than the N-Gage had. EA, afterall, still thinks the rev will be a "niche product".

A Myst game would be a good choice for rev

I like the Myst series. The first one was supposedly good at drawing in non-gamers on the PC.

I don't really think the Myst games "fit" on the Xbox. I often say that too many Xbox games are on the PC, negating any need to get one, and in this case I feel it's more of a slower-paced game...a PC game that doesn't need to be on the Xbox...and it's probably slower without a mouse.

Trying to draw in non-gamers and having a controller that works like a mouse or better, the Revolution may be a good home for Myst games.

Problem is, the series is over. Unless they have some rereleases or spinoffs like Uru or something.

Ubisoft games/series I do like:
Beyond Good & Evil
Myst
Prince Of Persia

Ubisoft series I might like:
Rayman

Ubisoft games I don't play much of but don't think I'd like:
Splinter Cell
Tom Clancy's...anything

I guess I don't like the realistic games. Red Steel and early FPSes on the Revolution may be exceptions, as the concept of "feeling" and directly controlling a gun or katana sound pretty engrossing and engaging.

Magical system?

The Revolution causes hallucination!! SIGN ME UP!

All third-party support is good thing, I'm not the biggest Ubisoft fan, but their games aren't crappily made at least, they are quality, even if the genres, gameplay elements, and styles of their games aren't something I care for too much.

Myst V would be a great game to show off DS-Revolution connectivity. In Myst V, you carry around a tablet and draw shapes on it to communicate. This would, of course, work great with the DS. You could also use the DS to take notes. The Revolution controller could be used if you don't have a DS, of course. I 've only played the demo of Myst V, but in Myst 4, there were a lot of things you could interact with by click-dragging. This could be replaced with using the Revolution controller for manipulating objects, levers, keys... whatever.

"They are as bad at Nintendo at slapping Mario or Metroid on everything. "

But all of nintendo's games are atleast fun...

It'd be great if the rev got a Myst game, or a new Cyan game (they're apparently working on something not myst now.) In fact, with Cyan's focus on intuitve, non-gamer firendly games, you'd think the rev would be a perfect fit for them.

Unfortunatley, I'm pretty sure Cyan views Nintendo as a mortal enemy.
