Acid-Flux September 16, 2005 Share Acid-Flux Member September 16, 2005 (edited) Seeing as Nintendo is usually the lesser of the 3 systems to be bought (PS, XBox, Nintendo), they always have to come up with new ideas, and this one is defiantly a neat idea. I think Nintendo has stepped up in this console, and are going to have alot more of us "Coinsurer’s" talking. I use the term Coinsure loosely because I know alot of people who are programmers and have been fooling around with electronics / equipment have more respect of Nintendo because of what new idea's they come up with and how they are implemented. Anyways, that's just my feeling. Always, Nintendo released their design for their new "Controller" and might I say it's defiantly different. This is an interesting read, and I suggest that people who want a system that ISNT a computer *cough* Ps3, and XBox 360 *cough* read this.

Sir Shertown Pimp September 16, 2005 Share Sir Shertown Pimp Member September 16, 2005 seems shady, what if you have a really small tv how hard is it to point at stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penty September 16, 2005 Share Penty Member September 16, 2005 The point thing is only for certain aspects, ie like a light gun, the positioning system is independent of the TV. What I want is a game that uses two of the controlers for your hand movements and a mat for actual forwards and backwords stuff. woo woo duel weilding here I come!

Penty September 16, 2005 Share Penty Member September 16, 2005 On further thought I want a third controler mounted in a hat and instead of the DDR mat I was thinking of, I want something more like a huge iPOD wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymo September 16, 2005 Share anonymo Member September 16, 2005 I personally hated the Gamecube and I spit on Sony (sooooo corrupt) so I'm one of those Xbox people...but this console looks just too pimp! I thought the controller was ridiculous at first, but now I think it's brilliant! I'm now really looking forward to seeing this beauty in action...

Saris September 16, 2005 Share Saris Member September 16, 2005 Oh man, what a ridiculous idea. That has just crossed the Revolution off my list for good I think. Even though I'm also disappointed with the PS3 controller, it didn't cause me to burst out laughing like this just did. I can imagine 4 friends playing a game, and someone walking in who knows nothing of games --- it would look like they're all fighting to change the channel. I'm just flabbergasted. I know I shouldn't be too judgemental until I get my hands on it, but just the look of it is stupid enough to turn me off. At this rate, as much as I hate Microsoft for cashing in on this market, their pompous, endless boasting and arrogance, I might be getting the 360. This is not a good idea on Nintendo's part.

Guest zerodamage September 16, 2005 Share Guest zerodamage Guests September 16, 2005 (edited) That sure is different and Nintendo has always been ahead on that.. and they have to be. I mean somehow they outlived Sega and now they have MS and Sony leading the pack. I personaly am more curious as to what sort of hardware will be in this thing.

Norguard September 17, 2005 Share Norguard Member September 17, 2005 I think that if it weren't for the joystick, I'd be opposed to it, but it really is an intuitive design - something that everybody is capable of using, and with a little practice, something that can be mastered with a decent amount of accuracy.

VooDooPC September 17, 2005 Share VooDooPC Member September 17, 2005 I don't like it at all and probably won't be getting a Revolution becuase of it. I'm not keen on Nintendos crazy ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penty September 17, 2005 Share Penty Member September 17, 2005 Remember that the console also has 4 standard gampad ports on the top. Additionally they have stated that "shells" for standard controllers will be available that the controller will slide into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman September 17, 2005 Share Batman Member September 17, 2005 I showed my kids and they flipped!! They like the part about swinging the controller to swing a sword in the game.. The wife said "looks like I wont be hitting the wrong buttons anymore.".. We'll see how good or bad they are when it comes out.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdman September 22, 2005 Share Birdman Member September 22, 2005 That's is the worst idea for a controller ever. LOL. I guess I'll have to try it to be sure though, I actually enjoyed the N64 controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
