Nintendo Revolution''s controller revieled! This is NOT a fa

Here is the link. So far, this looks pretty damn wierd. When I first saw this, I thought, this is a joke. Then, when I realized it REALLY WAS the Nintendo Revolution's controller, I asked myself "HAS NINTENDO LOST THEIR FRICKIN MINDS?" I mean the DS was a wonderfull idea, and I still love it to death, but at first, this seemed stupid. But, I read the article and now it seems pretty damn cool. Check it out for yourself!

Yes, that really is it.


No, really, that's it.

This is the controller with an analog stick attachment.

Ooh, rainbow colors.

Yeah, i saw it. Personally, I think it has to be one of the most innovative things ever. GYroscopic controls...imagine, being able to swing link's sword in zelda any way you move your arm, instead of pressing a single button to swing.

There is a wireless keyboard and mouse, where the mouse has a gyro in it. So its not that farfetched to have. The Gyro mouse is ok, just hard to get use to.

Aye, I viewed that article last night. The simplistic "pad" makes sense, but it looks even more awkward than the old ones. Plus, it seems even smaller! How am I supposed to get my big paws around that thing? *Walks off grumbling*

Nintendo also plans on an expansion to the controller, where it becomes part of the shape of a controller we have all come to love so much, and will have a hard time getting away from. No comment or picture of what it will look like, but here's a good speculation by IGN:

even thou I am a hard-cored pc gamer I still think that the duel-analog controller for the playstation 1 and 2 is the best on the market. I have seen photos for the PS3 and it looks way to small for me to use ( it looks like a small raser boomerang) this controler for the next nintendo looks like my hand would cram up in ten minutes lol.

Blessed Be to all those that still dream of the flight to the stars.

Ag! That picture is hard on the eyes Wolfy! That damn thing is *bloody* ugly.

well i love it. And for anyone talking about how it looks uncomfortable, it may seem that way, but everyone who has ever held the controller says it is very very confortable.

I'll agree with Harvey here. That thing is the fugliest thing I've seen since the last time Michael Jackson was on TV.

I feel my wallet getting lighter every second. Mini-Taw has probably got one pre-ordered why is parenting so expensive?

This thing has potential but it will depend on the way the control system of the Revolution's game implement it's use.

Personally I think it would make an awesome controller for FPSs

Post Sun Sep 18, 2005 8:53 pm

This controller has to be the neatest thing, EVER!
Hey, c'mon lad, it doesn't hurt yer eyes... I mean LOOK at it, that's sooo cool!
