Technology Nintendo Reveals it's Revolutionary Controller!!

#22
from the speech

"In order to prevent the console video from being to complicated we did not explain how we will solve [the issue of backwards compatability]. However, by taking advantage of the controller's expansion feature. You will be able to play the existing games, virtual console games and multi-platform games using the what we call classic-style expansion controller. This is an expansion contoller with the shape of existing controllers into which the free-hand style controller can be placed inside of. So please rest assured all of your favorite games will play well on the Revolution."

in case u were wondering "how am i supposed 2 play Tekken 7 on this thing??"

Props on Nintendo for being innovative.

Not props for always creating stuff that the ignorant audience they're trying to sell to will judge before they even try it.

those are gay i was expecting somethin like an n64 type of controller
they been saying all along it was going to be something inovative, why would they go back?

if it was not for N64 we would not have many of the features in games we have today, this is opening the new door.

it seems like a step closer towards virtual reality to me, without the mask though.

Aiight Ive calmed down and thought it over and finished the article, and shits dope. LOL.

It's easy to believe that third parties could be alienated by this device. However, the good news is that Nintendo has thought of that potential drawback and taken measures to address it. The Big N has developed a conventional controller shell that, according to executives, looks more like a Wave Bird. The "pointer" remote can be inserted into this shell so that more traditional games can be enjoyed as they always have. Obviously, it will be this shell that enables players to experience Super NES and N64 games on the platform. The even better news is that because the sensory functionality of the device remains operational even when it's in the shell, games like Madden could actually be expanded. Imagine, for instance, having access to all of the controls of a standard controller plus 3D movement options. Icon passing just got a whole lot easier.
Thats the saving grace, it will _still_ work like a normal controller if need be.

I just dont like the idea of using one hand to play games, and bending my wrist that way for extended periods of time doesnt sound like my idea of a good gaming experiance.

In the end I doubt many games will use this option, it seems more like a good idea for puzzle games and games on a track (house of dead type games), because it seems too hard to control a character around a screen. Sure it would be good to shoot in FPS, but how do you use it to walk around hall ways? Grab onto a wall and drag yourself around?

Hmmm... if they come up with a couple fun games, I may actually buy the Nintendo just to play around with them using this controller, and thats a good thing, because I wasnt even considering a Nintendo this gen.

Looks like I may have to save up for all three now. :(

It's gonna be impossible to play any game where you've gotta be quick with the thumbs man. I've been used to the two-handed horizontal controllers and this is gonna absolutely piss me off. Now I sound like a baby whining like a little bitch.

not like this!

did you watch the Video?

The Asians love this shit(ever been to an Arcade that has that Dance Dance Revolution game? Asians get down on that shit all day lol), so off them Alone Nintendo will turn a profit, and for Kids it is a good system, for people our age we will still need a PS3 or a Xbox360, but for Nintendo fanboys such as myself this will be a welcome addition.
