It has been announced and displayed. Nintendo has revealed their big secret. I have looked at it and read up on the possibilties it could have. And though I am somewhat shocked I am also excited. I think this could really be something fun to use. A controller like this would fit in perfectly with games like Halo or Burnout. I can be used for games that computers play like Starcraft or Sim City because it is like a mouse pointer. And best of all it could be used to swing in sports games or even slach away in a Zelda game.

Well, even if the price is somewhat high, the new Nintendo system is on my wishlist for 2006.

Have any of you seen it? What do you think?

Well, I am of the thought don't knock it until you try it. PS and XBOX are merely upgrading their systems not changing them. The controls are the same with a newer shape. I still can't stand dual analog controls or having to memorize what 16 buttons do in a game for each and every game you play.

I am not yet sure how this will work but i will for sure give it a try. If it is nice I will get it.

I can see a lot of problems with this.. :/

Firstly people won't recognise it as a controller, and secondly you probably have to point it directly at the box to send a good signal, so some sore wrists will be occuring! ;)

IGN has the best info on the controller you should look there if you have any questions about it. It uses sensors so you can just point it in the general direction of the TV.

I will have a more complex cradle similar to what the Gamecube comtroller looks like for newer games/more hardcore games.

The whole idea of it is to get new gamers or older gamers who gave up on video games once they got too complicated to play them so I don't think the controller will be all that strange. Besides most people use a similar remote daily for the TV or dvd player. Most people will instantly feel somewhat familiar with it.

Though it may have it's problems for sure. That is why I will wait to test it out.

I can almost see all the disturbed and disgusted faces of all the gamers....^^

I was ready for a surprise but I didn't expect funky remote controlled sex-toys *wacko* :-D :D

Honestly? As long as one can control whatever moves on screen, it will fulfill its purpose. Though the GameCube has a high probability of being the last console I ever got.

I WILL test this thing out though, as soon as cuttily possible ^^.

Innovatively controlled greetings,

They say you can Gamecube games on it. It has a little flip on the side so you can plug up to four GC controller in. Besides what would be the point of releasing a zelda game just a month or so before the Revolution if half of the peole couldn't play it?

So it must be able to play GC games. It is free online super smash that I am looking forward to.

Boomerangs for you then. And a big bill too >:(

I will enjoy playing my games for free online with my standard wireless cradle* and with the $200 or more I saved buying a Nintendo product I will go out for a steak dinner and get the a few sets of the new LEGO star wars. *satis*

I am just giving you a hard time. Don't take it too personally. ;)

*for those who haven't read up on the new controller, there will be a basic craddle that fits over the current controller that is designed like the newer systems for more advanced games and additional buttons for more options.
