Agreed.

 

Sure it's something different but it's like a "wow wtf is that" kind of difference. I'm not sure of breaking out of the traditional gamepad design was such a good idea at this point, but we'll just have to wait and see.

[Ryuken]

nice idea but the remmote shape ruined it plus it'll take some time getting use to

[Weirdy]

hmm...maybe it will have something else besides side scrollers

 

or maybe it's detachable and what's why you see two

 

but either way, that's...unique :s

Looks interesting, probably gonna have lots of attachments to it.

Wow.....This reminds me of how sometimes i play PS1 games on my PS2 with my DVD remote just because i can.

 

If this is going to be anything like that (But there wont be lag i bet) its going to be horrible.

 

This is just a total /fail on nintendo's part, The current controllers just dont have enough buttons, they work for most games, but on some games you can REALLY tell how they needed more buttons, This is the complete opposite of what they should be doing.

You know what, I finally figured out a way to explain why Nintendo has been screwing up so badly, starting with the Gamecube, then the DS, and now this and the gameboy micro, all in a simple catchphrase.

 

"All Gimmick, No Game"

 

hell, i support nintendo, but its the sad truth.

[Weirdy]

well...we haven't seen what the revolution can do just yet, so maybe we should wait on more news :s

[oshisama]

I dunno I love my DS.

 

Anyway I hope G4's coverage on the 27th is good.

No game? I beg to differ. Nintendo is the only one that has fresh games. I'm ashamed to admit it but Nintendogs is actually a fun game.

 

Also, your precious Hideo Kojima and Square have praised the controller. And I think they know more about game design than you.

[Sturmvogel]

Yeah...well if that's the controller it's crap. Of course its to early to tell as of now. But if that's the official controller then they better have some astounding shite up their sleeves for it to work well.
