Iwata has revealed the Revolution controller.

[supa_al]

People should not get too negative towards the new control. People should realize that its "another" way to play games. People can still play using the conventional controller, but there will be certain titles that will use the new function.

 

 

 

Remember, this is for the developers, to use their creativity and do what they want with it.

 

 

Most games that will probably make good use of it will be like certain sport games and fps.

 

Most likely not for platforming, but who knows.

 

 

Basically next year will be interesting. There is something for everybody, and not just graphics.

 

Peace.

Here are two amateur attachment mockups that I saw which I think would be pretty damn awesome.

Wheel Attachment

Now that's cool. No need to buy an entire extra wheel pad to enhance the game experience, just buy an attachment and you're set. The future for this controller might be very bright indeed.

As long as ALL the attachments (exept basic controler like the one IGN put) are under $10 ^.^

They will probably come in bundles with games that need them for awhile too, Kinda like how Goldeneye came with the Rumble Pack for awhile and That one game came with the transfer pack errr i think some pokemon game...

It was Donky Kong 64 and possibly, these tie-ins could help. Espeically if their useful.

Goldeneye and teh starfox came with rumble, pokemon came with transfer, and donkey came with expansion (which unlocked some more stuff in perfect dark also)

Perfect Dark was nothing w/out an expansion pack

[Wizard]

It added more stuff in PD. Playing PD to it's full potentinal.

I can remember about 3 years ago. I went to my friends house and we played it accept he didnt have a expansion pack and it was so lame you can only play 2 player (not too sure). I remember donkey kong 64 that was such a fun game. I can remember buying it and the expansion came with it.

i remember being really super pissed, because PD was supposed to support the transfer pack, and you would take pics of yourself with a gameboy camera and put yourself in the game.

 

but nooooooooooooooooooooo, because of columbine they had to take it out >_<

 

Supposedly some of the code is still in the game, and someone has gotten it to SLIGHTLY run with tons of gameshark hacking, but it doesnt really work to the point where you should bother to try it.

The Gameboy Camera and Printer were one of the most novel ideas ever. Man, those were the times. The resolutions sucked balls, it was grainy and black & white... but damn, they had some value.
