Shows a lot of balls by nintendo going in this direction. Lets face it microsoft are trying to make their xbox 360 into a friggin multimedia pc whoring features on it that have been in pc gaming for years now, sony have their batarang controller and what both ms and sony have in common is their consoles are just more powerful so more polygons on the screen and thats it. If it was left to these 2 companies games would just look better every few years and that would be it.
Nintendo were the first to have a gamepad, first to have analogue controls and first to have a rumble feature. And of course ms and sony copy them because when it comes to innovating new stuff theyre both practucally clueless. Interacting with games the way this controller allows would make for some amazing gaming. People are just whining because its not what they expected, bottom line is NOONE here has tried the fucking thing yet, and beacuse its different its automatically gonna suck.
And the funny thing is nintendo has now grabbed all the attention with this new design, it is NOT something you can judge based on friggin pictures, untill you've tried it you've NO idea wtf its like because its never been done before.
And for the people that are obviously afriand of change and innovation, theres ports for plugging in gamecube controllers here.
