what nintendo has been hiding

I would like to try the controller myself but it seems like a real innovation. It may enhance the way we play games and mabe the games themselves Smile

As the moment, any current consoles present a lot of great graphics and framerate, so the innovation of the revolution's controller should make the gaming experience more interactive.

I'm excited, but I'm scared that it won't go well because there may not be very many developers who will want to take a chance of doing something creative with the controller. But Nintende will surely give us great titles.

I don't know...I'm kind of skeptic of the controller still. I mean because the controller doesn't have that many buttons I'm not sure if it will translate well onto sports games such as Madden and other EA games.

I don't think it is necessarially great that fps can be played better on the consoles; the PC will always work well with fps better than consoles, plus pcs probably will have dual or quad cores before the decade is over so programmers will have to adapt as they always had to with increasing hardware innovation.

Yes, higher end PC will be dual or quad processors near in the future. But not so near. Actually, quad processor systems are out by now but how many could afford it? What will be the price range in the future? The multi-core hardwares like Xbox360 and PS3 will be the mainstream real soon and both system are capable of using mice and keyboards. The last two peripherals are the main reason you say the PC is better for first person shooters, right?

Also, do you know the reason why Valve develops their latest project for Xbox360 instead for Windows Vista? Sure PC is upgradeable to pack a lot of power, but you still have a lot to worry about the drivers. How much will it cost to get the latest graphics card and the Ageia card to get it up to par with the next-gen consoles? The distinction between the consoles and PC's are closely diminishing therefore "PC will always work well with fps better than consoles" is nothing but a mere tautology.

Nintendo has done it again.
Theyve made it clear that they only really plan on developing for 1 type of genre..... again. lol

Although theres no denying that the controller is very unique, one cant deny that it is very gimmicky. I love nintendo, ive been with them since the original famicom days...but if they ever want to recapture the market like the good old snes days, theyre gonna have to do some better planning.
The problem is that the controller is not practical for alot of different types of games.... i DONT want to play a fighting game with a remote like that...nor do i want to play a racing game with a controller like that.

Anyways...i hope nintendo proves me wrong and shows us a whole bunch of things that the controller is capable of doing ....... but in the meantime im gonna have to say that im not sold on their idea.

Ive given them so many chances....first with the gba being replaced so damn quickly, the n64 just...lacking in every sense...and the same can be said with the gamecube.

That is why Nintendo is making shells for the controller, so you can attach it and play in the regular way. It might cost money for attachments, but you do not have to buy a totally different controller to play other games.

i agree with tumor boy on the game gendre thingy, mario's multitasking in all sorts of things, but getting back on the topic of the controller itself, it seems like a pretty strange type of a controller, i mean it looks like a freakin' tv remote! but when u put things into prespective i mean, using somthing like that for motion sensory and attachments, it gives the controller some sort of flexibiltiy wehn moving to different game gendres, for example it can just go from some fps game and then for some totally new twist just trancend into some sort of platformer game, i mean that has to account for something?
