Nintendo Revolution Controller Revealed

[FryzDog]

i Can't wait to try it out

[Purple Haze]

GC controllers sucked hard too. Why would I wanna use those either?

[SuperSnake]

I ****ing hate it. God dammit nintendo, you just lost a fan

[Lanky]

It looks awesome for fps's, racing games and adventure games etc.

I think that this is a great idea. Did you people actually read the article or just look at the pics?

[Starcom826]

wait i dont understand.

Is this going to be like the ONLY controller, or is it going to have a normal controller and then this 'remote controller'?

I mean it looks like a very lovely remote, but I like to use both hands when playing.

The other hand would be the analog stick thing. Supposedly you can also slip it in a control shell if need be. I'm willing to give it a shot unlike other people here. I'll decide after I try it in store or at a friends because the press says it's surprisingly comfortable.

Don't judge it by looks, though most people do.

Hi neowin forums

EDIT: of course they didn't read the article. read the comments these guys are making!

[Amnesia]

you guys are not being open minded. How can you say it's terrible?

It's a REMOTE!

It's not like they gave it a weird design!

Holy Crap! Why can't people understand that using the controller as a whole

requires TWO hands, however they've given you the option to remove the 'remote side' just in case a game only needs that.

It is THE ONLY controller. (Nintendo isnt going to launch another controller with the Rev)

[benjeeeboy]

I personally think it's amazing. Reading through a number of forums, it seems that while there are people who won't try no matter what, generally the reception is good and people think its exciting. That really surprises me, but I really hope it takes off because this could make games fun again.

Swingy swingy:

Did you people actually read the article or just look at the pics?

You forget what site your on? :laugh:

pics, reading is such a pain for most, people stop jumping the gun and read ( like they are going to read this post anyways i save my my keypress lifespan)

[Amnesia]

@ jerry, they haven't announced that have they?

Can you provide a link?

Maybe you mean, "that is the only controller they have announced thus far"

Anyway, I agree with one of the posts above.

People will have just looked at the pics.

Neowin forum users are just like

"Gwarsh, pretty pictures, My nut understand wurdzzz"

[kryptonik]

Reserver your judgement until you see the controller in use. This is too innovative to judge from the pictures. ;)

GC Controller can be used

[Chanser]

All I can say is wow, Nintendo have my order in :D.

Has possibilities of making work-out(exercise) games :whistle:.

Then you could have a heart rate monitor accessory, to monitor your fear or controlling your exercise.

did you expect that someone flaming here was going to actually read the article :p

anyway... that thing looks nice, the posibilities and if it can be atached to other things that make endless possibilities

[Epimetheus]

By the gods, this thing could be used for a lot of things, swing that controller and hit a enemy in Zelda, LASER PINPOINT ACCURACY IN FPS!!! COME ON HOW CAN YOU NOT LIKE THAT!? The damn thing is nearly every controller for the past twenty years in one! Plus it has tilt sensor, it can become an attachment of a attachment, like that bongo things and DDR pads.

Dear god, most innovative thing yet for controlling games in a non geek/idiotic way )EyE Toy DDR Pad) and you guys just crap all over it. Wait before you speak is my best friend.

[Doli]

I think Nintendo knows what it is doing folks, give it a chance folks and wait until there is more info and video of it in action.

[Galley]

Who was the friggin' genius who decided to have TWO sets of A and B buttons? One set is capital, and one is lowercase. WTF? :wacko:

[Starcom826]

Well with this either Nintendo will change everything, or will create a niche market. The former is good for it, and the latter is not necessarily bad business either. It's actually an interesting business strategy.

[thagame]

R.I.P Nintendo

[Epimetheus]

The one thing I'm disappointed about is. NO GAMES SHOWN. GOD DAMN IT NINTENDO.

[Amnesia]

@jmole, I didn't spot those on while reading the article.

Those are some great pics, and now I understand how they said the controller will be able to 'adapt' to the game.

(sadly that may mean we have to buy many attachments)

But that looks great! Sometimes I do like to have one arm lower than another when playing so that'll be usefull.

And it there are attachments, I think it's quite obvious that there might be another controller released with a nice revo design but without the motion sensor etc..

[User6060]

definately a BIG gamble, i'm not going to try and judge this before i can get my hands on it and see if its intuative.

[Epimetheus]

We now have backing from Square-Enix, EA, Ubisoft, Capcom (possibly don't quite yet) Ubisoft, THQ, and probably midway. The devs are liking it so far. :D
