The Revolution has begun.

Perfect for FPSes for sure...I mean analog, plus perfect pointing...Plus gyrscoping tilting..I don't think it gets better than this for FPSes.
Also pretty interesting for sports as well.
Baseball obviously is a no brainer, as well as football, and basketball also could benefit to make shooting more accurate and user dependant instead of some random variables.

I think this will make developers make new games instead of the same 2 billion GTA clones and 2 billion Quake clones they have made for years.

That looks fucked lol.. amazing actually.. I dont know if I'd like it tho..

Are you serious! WTF is that shit! Thats retarded!
I guess you have to try it before you can bag it...but looking and reading that makes it sound shit - IMO.

what the? that's a remote.My favorites are still the PS1/PS2 controllers. the ps3 one's look weird to me.

I hate having wireless things cuz I ALWAYS lose them. This is going to suck ass , but im not a big nintendo fan either way.

Don't tell me that crappy remote controller can play games because its looks crap. It looks gay too. I prefer the PS2 controller, they feel much comfortable when holding it and they looks sick.

They Say that the controller will have to be able to play N64 GAmes.
Ok. I Believe It.
But.
All the buttons are not represented from the N64 Controller....

Z-Button: There
Analog Stick: Present
Directional Pad: Present
A & B Buttons: Present
C-Buttons: Not Present
Right & Left Shoulder Buttons: Not Present

Nintendo might be screwed, unless they pull something brilliant out of their ass

what a piece of shit. Nintendo shows their true colours.

I used to love nintendo, now they've come out with this piece of shit TV Remote as a fucking controller, even the fucking Atari Joystick and red button pwns more than that crap....

my favourite controllers (in order) are: SNES :mrgreen:

. PS1, GCN, N64, PS3, Xbox (fat piece of shit) then the Atari's joystick and one button, so simple

They're going too Applish, not all people love the white hype..

And oh yeah, it's a remote!?

Idk, it might be a little bit too different for me.

if you can't see the beauty of this controller then you either will when you come to ur senses or you're a closed minded gamer that's contributing to the downward spiral of this industry

watch the video and think of what might be

anyone judging this controller on aesthetics over functionality I will flat out call a moron

I can't believe how many of you have missed the point entirely

by **Fitzy** on Sat Sep 17, 2005 12:38 am

Wow thats goin to be a pain in the ass to use
Lots of cramps id imagine!

by **Jing** on Sat Sep 17, 2005 1:10 am

thats one of the weirdest ideas ever

by **Jona** on Sat Sep 17, 2005 1:24 am

It looks like a fucking remote.

by **cyanide** on Sat Sep 17, 2005 1:37 am

Hmm, I can see the potential, but like Fitzy said, "lots of cramps, I'd imagine!" Looks like carpal tunnel's dream come true, unless of course, this thing actually succeeds.

Btw, that's one amazing hand model :shock:

Call me a moron

I didnt read any of these posts, but all I got to say is that is fucking stupid

by **Riot** on Sat Sep 17, 2005 6:37 am

Like I've said before, this will be Nintendo's last system.

by **hipn** on Sat Sep 17, 2005 7:19 am

Good for FPS but not good for sports at all....but it looks gay, but it probably wont be s bad...

by **#12** on Sat Sep 17, 2005 7:29 am

that is awesome for fps, but it will suck for sports. All other games will hard to play because the shortage of button

EDIT:if you look on the bottom of the controller, you can see a port for addons. Maybe it wont be so bad because of addins? imagine adding in your n64 controller into it. it wont be so bad for all games because of addins

How did I know End Boss was going to like this... I still think it'd be better used as like an external control for a vibrator or something.

by **#12** on Sat Sep 17, 2005 8:55 am

i can already imagine some guy making a nintendo rev sex game. just move the controller forward and backward..........
