[solidius23]

hmmmmmmm after seeing that video it's growing on me in a little weird way. will just wait and see to give final judgement.

If the sword duel games are anything like the ones in the big arcades down here in miami(were you move left and suddenly your character in the screen swings right) then give me a new controller, but if it works as smoothly as I imagine it should (it's nintendo come on) then hell yea I would love the concept. Maybe you can add more then just a joystick to the back

Various folk, including IGN, say that Metroid Prime 2 on it really rocked, and seemed very comfortable. Imagining it, playing an MP game with that could work, and tiring.

This controller could be as good as mouse and keyboard for FPS games.

 

Also, here is an interview with Nintendo VP of Marketing, Perrin Kaplan.

I expect the controller to have a more ergonomic shape at the bottom so it's more comfortable to hold for long gaming sittings.

Im considering buying a Revolution now.... I'm just imagining how fun most of the games on that will be on that, and online >.<!!!

Thats IGN's concept.

[Agozer]

Is it just me or is the D-pad bigger?

[Wizard]

Just you.

[Agozer]

Just you.
