Hi there, I've come to this forum to ask a question to you fine people who have more expertise with home audio technology.

Nintendo Revolution is a home console coming from Nintendo.. only thing is they're keeping everything very secretive.

They've filed a patent which we're trying to make sense of at the moment, you can see an image of it here:

It's not quite the same.. we know it's not going to be an ethernet port because this would raise the cost of the system, and the system already has 2 usb ports and wireless built in.

Your thoughts would really be appreciated, and if you can confirm it t be audio or definitely not digital audio that would be great.

Other therories were that it was a firewire port, or some kind of Nintendo standard port for a reciever that would sit on top of the television.

Thanks in advance.

- Sp.

Just thought I'd add, the controller for the system is wireless.. and Nintendo's aim for the console is to make it as cheap as possible.. I forgot you might not know much about it.
There's plenty about it on Google if you're interested.
