Then you must take the cheese.
For it is good.
I'm going with both of them.
Because I have enough money to own both.

Haha!

Yeh I'll get both a PS3 and Revolution if I can.

Now, you see if I make a remark about blood's comment I will get told off...ffs

Anyway, the controler looks cool, I just hope it works as good as they want us to believe.

I watched the video in gamespot and the japanese guy said that there will be an extra controller plugged in the main rev one that will be built for those old games.

He's lying! IT'S ALL LIES!!

I wondered what they were going to do, but I'm certain no one was expecting this.
It's a kind of weird situation, it seems smart and cool, but there are some drawbacks I think they need to improve.
Some people won't find the patience to hold a controller in the air the whole time. Even though we use controllers like this too, this has a bit of a drawback because we need to move it way too much.
It could also be kinda akward to hold this thing the whole time.

It looks like a interesting concept But I will have to reserve judgement until I get to use one for myself. If you hold it on its side it somewhat looks like a alongated NES controller. Not like that was the best designed controller but it would be cool for playing the older NES games.

Yep. I've read a bunch of testimonials, and alot of people really like it. I'm very interested to see what kind of games a control style like that will offer.

Definately I gotta say Myst comes to mind, but I can see a lot of games that focus on ....say...some type of game where you play with your character holding a handheld device, and your controller IS that handheld device.....Like, heh..this is just what pops into my head, but like a first person star-trek game, where the controller you hold can be a tricorder, or a phaser, and you could do various things with it....It's a very intresting concept, and maybe they could even elaborate on it, with like an aiming crosshair, or lazer pointer, and make a FPS game? It'd be sorta hard to run a fps game with this controller, but I can see if the FPS game was designed for use with the controller, it'd have the game's difficulty, and quirks and perks accordingly.

They callibrated Metroid Prime to it, and apparently, it plays like a dream. No more lock on, a true FPS. Analog stick to walk around, D-Pad for visors and such, A to jump, trigger to shoot, and aiming and looking around is done via the remote.

I can't wait to see how Mario and the *spoiler* new character that will be by his side*end spoiler* will play with this controller in Mario128! I bet it will rock! Ooh! and a zelda game! Or mario party! Imagine the possiblilitys for minigames! Or even rpgs! This will ROCK!
