Is Thanksgiving soon enough? Probably not for fanboys, but that's when 1UP.com's Patrick Klepen reports that the much-anticipated gaming console will be available here in the U.S. Nintendo hasn't made a formal announcement, but Klepen writes that "Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has talked to Japanese newspaper Sankei Shinbun about the much debated release date."

I just hope the Revolution's games aren't as exorbitant as Xbox 360 games. If gaming companies really want to reach out to the mainstream, as they claim, maybe they should rethink $60 games.
