New opportunities with new controller?

I was thinking about about the Revolution controller and thinking how would it work with normal games, I know they are going to make a shell for the it (or so I've been told) and you can plug Gamecube controllers to the top of the console as well. But that would just be a waste using those when the Rev controlelr offers something different. But I still don't know how games things like fighting games will work with the sensor, not to mention the lack of buttons and how hard it would be to use all of the ones of the controller at the same time.

I know the controller offers something different and would be great for games like the FPS, where you can aim better than with an analogue stick or RTS games which would be as easy or easier to order troops around. But is the Rev remote going to be sacrificing control over specific game types while gaining better in others and what effect will this have on the consumer if popular game types are not as compatible as they were with other consoles.

 The Rev remote is a new thing, and the success of it really depends on game developers. While it does seem to have good support from Square-Enix making FF:CC and Ubisoft making Red Streel for example and also its own franchises already working for its console, without third party support taking advantage of the consoles controller the console will once agin have to rely on just Nintendo and a few other companies and is likely to fail just like the Gamecube did.

So I would ask, do you think Nintendo has tried to innovate too much for games developers who are not willing to take risks with something as bold as the Rev controller?

Or do you think that the Rev controller is going to be the start of new and inventive games that will give game developers the chane to do something new?

What does everyone (who sucks) have against Nintendo?

I mean everyone goes on about how kiddy it is, and yes in some ways it is, but it doesn't mean that it is bad.

The Windwaker may look kiddy but the game is actually better than 80% of other games on other consoles and its actually worth playing but people think its not cool to play it so just don't. People who avoid good games just because they seem kiddy, must just have serious self image problems.

Games like GTA are pretty good, but the real reason its so popular is just because its supposed to be cool to be gangster and such. I mean why would you want to be a gangster anyway their mostly just junkies.

Nintendo have made the best looking console this generation as well. PS3 is a grill and Xbox 360 is a mutant ipod breeded with the massive uglyness of the origional Xbox and yet its probably still the least popular.

Nintendo have tried to shrug of the kiddy image by having games like Resident Evil, Eternal Darkness and Red Steel, has just been announced for the Rev. But no its still thought of as kiddy even though its the only one to not release a barbie game on its console (not including handheld).

Aslo how can the DS be crap i mean it may not be as cool as a PSP but at least it has more then a handful of games that are actually worth playing. Wow you can play movies on your PSP but you can only put it on your memory stick because UMD sucks so much and buying movies on UMD isn't a complete waste of money *cough*. Nintendo are the only company that can actually make good handheld consoles and it really shows it by how much better it has always done.

Nintendo are really the company that made video gaming what it is today, it was the gaming company that stopped the gaming market from completely crashing in the 1980 and if it had crashed then it is very likely that gaming would never have become as popular as it is now or would the technology used in consoles be as advanced because people would have not had Nintendo to leed them forward.

Nintendo Kicks ass. :P

Lol

You know whats great elves and popcorn I would try and explain it to you but it would only further confuse your simple mind. :P :P :P

New name for the Revolution?

I personally think it should either be called "kick ass" after how badly its gonna kick ass compared to the other consoles.

Or Fuzzbo or Funnzo. Fuzzbo would be a fuzzy Rev with sharp teeth and Funnzo would be "Its cute and cuddly, with lots of fire power".

Kick Ass :P

You know how Nintendo are the Best and everything else **** (isn't good)

What should i get a PS3 or Xbox360? :? I'm not sure which because PS3 will have JRPG's, MGS and has region-free games.

Xbox360 is out now has Oblivion and some FPS gsmes. But on the other hand UT2007 hasn't even been announced for Xbox360 and I do like Final Fantasy more then Elder Scrolls. But Halo 3 should be good, but Killzone might actually be playable this time round hmmmmmm.......... :P

Oh well as long as I get a Rev atleast I'll know that I will definetly get games with GAMEPLAY, that always eludes the other companies :P

Wow I've written alot and its just a load of cr :P ap. Oh well I guess I've just gone crazy, maybe I should delete this so that i won't be sent to a shrink. I hope I don't have to pay for the shrink I mean their expensive and if I get one i won't be able to afford these consoles which I've went on and on about for so long.

Wow I've written alot I think I should stop now anyone reading this must have gotten bored on about the first paragraph, then again they might be sad losers..... I mean smart. Well I can't really tell the difference, their more or less the same thing... I mean their completely different but oh well. Also I guess its smart people who make the games that I enjoy playing and everything as well so I guess its good that there are those kinds of people. The world would probably be a crap place without them and we'd all be crawling on the floor and hitting each other with sticks or maybe thats just me. :P

Wow I've written alot maybe I'll add more tomorrow, I guess I'm lazy but all this typing makes me tired. zzzzzzzzzz ................ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ......................... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ................. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. :question: :question: :question:
