April 20, 2005 - GameCube owners are no strangers to Budget Monks Productions' Broken Saints. The online anime comic turn successful DVD was born to life around the same time that Nintendo launched its home console and many believed the story of Broken Saints would eventually land on GameCube. While the videogame adaptation didn't come to fruition during GameCube's life cycle, that didn't stop regular IGNcube readers from closely following the online comic, which years later continues to gain recognition.
Now, as Broken Saints catches the eye of Hollywood and is shopped around to various videogame publishers, franchise creator Brooke Burgess has begun to drop hints about Nintendo's next-generation console, codenamed Revolution. Why should Nintendo fans care? Well, Brooke is in a position to know. Not only is he a videogame industry veteran who worked for Electronic Arts, but he has in recent months dealt closely with console publishers.
Brooke plans to reveal what he's heard about Revolution on the Broken Saints website in the near future -- possibly, he says, later this week.
IGNcube directs readers to check out the Broken Saints blog for more on the subject.
