Revolution Easy To Port To 48

Despite suggestions that the Revolution will not be as powerful as the other next-gen systems, 1up is reporting the system will be easy to port games to. From the article: "It's easy to see Nintendo's logic, though. Even though Revolution won't have the same memory bandwidth as Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the familiarity with current generation development and tools that Revolution takes advantage of means most companies shouldn't have much trouble working Revolution into the mix."

    I will say that the more system resources available, the lazier programmers are allowed to be. I'm not saying that's necessarily a good or bad thing, but it is pretty ridiculous to be hearing that a DVD-9 is not enough room to store a game.
