![]() ![]() ![]() Info and Hands On from 1UP Nintendo unveiled the Revolution Controller at the Tokyo Game Show yesterday. Apparently the much hyped and secretive design was in fact complete wireless control. In essence, you move the controller in air where you want to direct the action on screen. I don't know what to think about this yet, but it is definitely "revolutionary". Additional accessories can be plugged into the main controller for added functionality. edit: this is interesting.

My first reaction: WTFM8.
But upon further inspection it seems like it MIGHT be workable. I don't know how intuitive it will be, especially since all of us have been weaned on the standed "D-pad-n-buttons" setup. Actually moving your wrist/arm to look around will be a huge change, but it may also provided unprecidented degrees of control provided they work out all the kinks. It's also gonna be weird as hell having both your hands separate, I might accidentally punch some onlooker while I'm playing Super Mario 128 ![]() Good eye on seeing the NES controller thing, Kaz. I didn't even notice that! Time to play some Mike Tyson's Punch-Out! EDIT: Wait, there's only 4 buttons? How the hell do they expect any 3rd parties to port multiplatform games? It was hard enough when GC has like 4 buttons less than PS2/Xbox, now it has like 10 less!!! -------------------- |
