However, when asked about what plans Nintendo has laid out for THQ, Brian was hush-hush on the matter. But he claims that based on his discussions with the hardware giant, he feels that "Nintendo is waking up."

Finally, when confronted with the question of whether or not THQ was in possession of development hardware, Mr. Farrell declined to provide specifics due to non-disclosure agreements (NDAs). All he would say was that "We're seeing more from Nintendo now [for Revolution] than we have an any other Nintendo platform."

Even IGN's Matt Casamassina finds what THQ said encouraging.
Matt responds: I know what you mean. I wasn't expecting much when I cornered THQ's Brian Farrell last night, but was really surprised by his comments. He's very optimistic about Nintendo Revolution and he's definitely seen more than any of us. He kept telling me he couldn't say much because of NDAs and even that is encouraging because so often we just don't know if Nintendo is even reaching out to publishers. The simple fact that he's under NDA means that THQ is working with the Big N. And if THQ is there, it's very likely that most of the other big publishers have been contacted, too.
 
well.. lets see if we actually start seeing games. Look how many publishers committed to the cube... said it was the easiest to dev for... then we don't hear anything else... or they give us lack luster games (or maybe 1 good game then leave).

Another pet peave of mine is that many publishers gave the Cube the worst version of the game. IF they are going to commit to the Rev... AT LEAST MAKE AN ATTEMPT TO MAKE THE GAME ON PAR WITH THE OTHER GAMES, please.
