You don't get what I'm saying Andy :P If they added a TOUCH SCREEN to the REVOLUTION'S controller...it'd be a SCREEN. But you're watching the real action on your television SCREEN. So, it'd add up to two screens XD
Yea I forgot about that. XD
Oh well I guess a touch screen controller would suck. I just hope the controller itself doesn't suck. XD

G-Man (I have no idea why I call Luigi G-Man, I guess because the G stands for green. But I just like calling him that XD) used to be my best on SSB. And would be my best on SSBM if his up-B didn't suck big time. XD
But on almost every game I play I pick Luigi over everyone else.

And you're replying enough, there isn't any set number of posts you got to post. XD

SMS got me mad on something. But I have no clue on what it was. XD


Ok here is a topic. What game ticked you off the most. The game that just pissed you off and you just didn't like one bit (I'm not talking about the game itself, I'm talking about something in the game that made you so mad).

For me it was StarFox Adventures. Something in that game pissed me off (I think it was the C-Stick, it was messed up and was moving around and around and around when I was playing) so much that I jerked the controller out hit the bed with it and then throwed it on the floor really hard. Hard enough for me to mess it up and had to buy a new one.
I'm sure none of you have done anything that bad before. XD

Hey, don't go crazy on what I said earlier. I was only joking. I suppose it IS difficult to tell whether somebody is joking or not on the internet though.

Ok here is a topic. What game ticked you off the most. The game that just pissed you off and you just didn't like one bit (I'm not talking about the game itself, I'm talking about something in the game that made you so mad).
Now THAT'S a question. I haven't played any games recently to really be able to think of anything. Although it was kind of annoying when my Tetris game wouldn't let me score any higher. Hahaha, the scoreboard was stretched to its limits (this happened many years ago, back in GBC days on a GBO game). But there really isn't any game I CAN THINK OF that really ticked me off in such a way.
Ho-oh..........phoenix. Need I say more?

You know what the sad thing is? I have never every played Tetris. I've played other games like that but I have never played Tetris. XD


Well ToysRUs.com has done up a page on the Revolution it's nothing new. But at least they got a page up (they used to only have the 360). They do have a line in there that says "is rumored to be available in March 2006", sadly I don't think that's true.

I'm thinking about doing up some small FreeWebs (yes yes I know, it sucks but don't you webmasters and stuff think about that XD) on the Rev. Pics and info and facts and all that other stuff.


I must say, this is the sweetest looking GBM I've seen. Almost makes me want to get one (almost XD).


4 more days till the Tokyo Game Show. And this better not be the last post till then. XD

I was watching G4 today and they said they were going to be at the Tokyo Game Show and will be showing the 27th of Sep (it's not going to be live, because if it was then we would all be in the bed XD). Now what I'm wondering is if the TGS is the 16th or the 27th. O_o

I wouldn't say ALL of us would be in bed, some people live in places with timezones quite similar to that of Tokyo (ie. me, I'm only half an hour ahead of them).

Not that that matters anyway, nothing I say lately matters. My world is imploding, but it doesn't matter.

Paul to the rescue!

It's teh 16th, 17th, and 18th ^^
Ok, I hope you're right Paul. Because if you're not it's the end of the road. XD

I don't think I could last to the 27th if Nintendo was going to let out the controller at the TGS.

Ok here is the plan, you fly over to Tokyo and go to the TGS and get lots of info on games and stuff and come back and tell us about it. XD

That's not true, you bring up lots of good topics and ideas.

Rent it? That's a good one. XD
Remember how long it took me to find ToS? XD


I wonder if a topic about this came up in here. Oh well. XD

I wish Nintendo had a fighting game series. I'm not talking about SSB, that doesn't fall into the fighting category.
See Sony has Tekken, and Microsoft has Dead or Alive. But Nintendo doesn't have one of their own that is only on their systems (I know Tekken was once on the GBA but that was the only handheld at the time, there are 7 Tekken games out right now and 6 out of the 7 were on Sony and the last was on the GBA).
I love Tekken games, and if I had an X-Box I would get DoA. But to me it's sad that I can't find a Nintendo only fighting game for it. I just hope they get one on the Rev.

Hmmm...You're right 0_o;

They should make a cool one =D But you know how Nintendo is with mature games ~.~;
Well Tekken isn't rated M. And DoA is only rated M because of the story line, you got girls that.... you know. XD
Unless you're talking about a mature (not the rating) type game.

I hope it's let out I am sick of waiting to see the controller. And since the PS3 and 360's controllers are done they can't really make a rip off of the Rev controller (unless they pull a PlayStation and remake their controller).
And it's Rev and PS3. Me is no getting a 360. XD

The Nintendo Revolution Controller

Revolution Controller pics:










Revolution Controller Links:

Ok guys I want to ask you to do a few things before going "AHHHHHHHHHHHH Nintendo is going to go to hell because of that Controller". I want you to take the time and read, I got a few links here that most likely will change your mind of the controller. If you're like me then when you first saw it you thought it was the stupidest thing in the world and might have thought Nintendo is going to pay for the look of the controller. But please, take the time and read the pages I give you.

http://hardware.gamespot.com/Story-ST-15143-2567-x-x-x
(There are two pages to the link above, remember to click "Next Page" when you get to the bottom)

http://www.gamespot.com/news/2005/09/15/news_6133389.html

I know, it's a heck of a lot of reading. But if I did it then anyone can (because I hate reading XD). But if you're lazy like me and don't feel like reading all that (yes I did read it all XD), then I have a small run down of what it can do below (as in way down the page).


Revolution Controller, my thoughts

When I first saw it I looked at it as something really really stupid. Before it came out I pictured something like a GC controller, but it was wireless and had lots of things on it. How wrong was I when I got up this morning, got on GameSpot and clicked the link to the controller. There it was, sitting in front of me was a remote control. I was shocked sooooo much and had a feeling of such let down by the controller. Then I was like "What is Nintendo thinking by this remote?", I wasn't thinking about how Nintendo comes up with crazy ideas and they work too. Me being a Nintendo FanBoy I still had hope in Nintendo and had hope in this remote control. So I got out there and read about it, and I had and open mind on it. It has a type of USB port on the bottom, you can use that for the analog stick, you might be able to use it for a headset in online games (shooting games). As well as lots and lots of other stuff, it's really no different then the USB port on top of the PSP. That has lots and lots of potential, for all we know there might be a converter made for it so that you can play games with your GC controller (I know it has 4 ports on top of the Rev).
Nintendo has always been away from the norm, analog stick rumble pack, 4 controller ports, small CDs, touch screen, two screens etc. I'm sure lots of people saw the N64 controller and went "<_< What is this? Since when did we have 3 hands? This controller is stupid!". Wasn't so stupid when everyone got around to play it. I think this might be the same with the Rev. To me it's the worst looking controller I have ever seen. But sometimes looks is not the same as playing. For all we know, this controller might just change gaming as we know it. To me, after reading all them GS pages I got to say Nintendo hasn't lost it yet. They are not thinking outside the box, they are remaking the box.
I think Nintendo is taking the right road with this. As of right now most games are looked at as good because of the graphics. I saw Kill Zone on the PS3 and I was shocked, it had killer graphics. But the thing is, if games are only as good as the graphics then we're done for in the gaming stuff. I don't see the graphics getting much better then they are now. If it was just for graphics then I say we got 1 maybe 2 gens left before graphics won't get any better. What happens then? We stop playing games and just leave it at that? Nintendo is looking back and then looking ahead. I'm sure some of you have played Duck Hunt on the NES (my cousin has it and every time we go over to his house I play that game). You got the little game gun and you blast the ducks. And I know most of you own a N64. Well Nintendo kind of took both of them things and put them in the controller. The trigger button is back with the Rev controller. And I think that will be great for shooting games (more on that below). The pointer or whatever also moves when you move your controller when looking at the TV. They are rethinking gaming and doing stuff their own way. Well I think I'll say the specs and stuff below.
For now most people is going to see the Rev controller and be pissed at Nintendo. Before I saw the DS I thought two screens was a stupid idea, well I was wrong. Untill everyone can get their hands on it and feel it and use it, it's going to be looked at as a stupid idea. I just hope down the road Nintendo will let out a controller that is like the GC controller.


Revolution Controller, a few things it can do
If you done read all them links then don't worry about this since it's more or less something you done know about.
The Nintendo Revolution Controller is way different then anything we saw before. Here is a few things it can do.
On Screen Movement
Lets say you are playing Metroid or another shooting game. With the Rev controller you'll be able to do more then just move around and shoot. You remember what I said about Duck Hunt. Well this is like that game lots of us has played. You don't move the C-Stick or this or that to point and shoot. You use the controller itself to do that. Here is a little quote from the first link.
"because the console actually tracks where you're pointing the controller at the screen, thanks to a small transmitter hidden inside the top of each controller. That's right, you can move around onscreen just by pointing the controller in a different direction."
That means on like a Metriod game you point and shoot, you don't have to move the gun with the C-Stick (I'm guessing it's the C-Stick, I've never played a Metroid game on the GC so I wouldn't know) to shoot. Because the "B" button on the bottom of it acts as a trigger. So it will be sweet for shooting games.
The Port on the Bottom
That USB type port is for sticking in an analog stick or a headset or whatever Nintendo has planed for it. I think it's a good add on and might change a lot of minds when/if Nintendo makes tons of cool (I never say "cool" XD) stuff for that port.
The Controller Shape
Oh.... yea, it's strange. I really don't know what to say on the shape because it's way way way way out of the norm. Like I said before, Nintendo isn't thinking out of the box, they are remaking the box. Nintendo really isn't the one that just goes with the flow, it's stuff is different then all the rest. And for some reason 99% of the time it turns out to be really good (even if it doesn't look good at first). We should all have an open mind on it.
Remember, the controller can be turned side ways and used like the old NES controller. So in a way you can play the old style.
The Controller Buttons
The controller has 11 buttons on it (counting the D-Pad as 4 buttons) and a power button (but I'm not counting that one as a button). And the analog stick has 2 more. So a total of 13 buttons on it. The strange thing is, the GC controller has 12 buttons (but it does have a C-Stick), so it has less then the Rev.

I think that's about it, and I know no one is really going to read all this. So I guess I should stop now. XD

Ok firstly, I am really surprised at what Nintendo have come up with for the Revolutions controller, it makes the systen and it's controller overall look kind of like a DVD player, you know with it looking like a remote controll that you use for TV's, DVD players etc. But we all know that Nintendo come up with innovative ideas on each of their consoles, and this is exactly the same, one thing that worries me though, is having to get used to using both hands on two seperate controller type things, usually you have both your hands on one controller, but these are seperated, that would feel wierd at first, the Gamecube's controller was just simple easy to pick up and get used to using it, but they do already have somewhere to plug your GCube controllers in so you can play Gamecube games with them and stuff.

My initial reaction like you said, was WTF!!!! have Nintendo gone mad?.. Like I said, I was surprised, but this is just like you said, like with the N64 controller, which was strange but rather easy to get to grips with, but I like the idea of waving it around to see the action on screen, for games like Zelda, even though it may make you look like a complete moron, it is quite fun to do XD. Just using something similiar in shape to a TV controller to play games, is something I never saw coming, me being a Nintendo fanboy also, I am yet again amazed at the ideas coming from them, certainly out of the normal with this, but it does usually turn out as a good thing, I just can't wait to see some videos of Revolution games coing out, because there are ones for the PS3 and XBOX 360, but they are coming out earlier, but I am thinking the wait will be worth it, and plus the controller is wireless, no more wires getting tangled up with eachother, in my point of view, that is a good thing, I do have to say, I like the look of it and they are Revolutionizing gaming, just like they did with the DS, like you said, some games are only as good as the graphics, but Nintendo aren't looking at graphics as we know, they are going to have really nice graphics in the Rev's games, but they aren't going for all out power processing for it, like Sony and Microsoft, they are focusing on the main factor of gaming, gameplay XD. Sure graphics are sweet and all, but they don't make the game. XD

At first...I was very taken aback. The thought of a vertical controller shocked me and made my faith in Nintendo falter.

Then I read what it could do.



Sensing 3D movement is beyond cool. Beyond anything ever done. Can't wait to be playing Metroid Prime: 3 and actually move the controller to look around. At the moment, my thinking is that it'll pull the player completely into the game. Got an evil zombie in front of you? Literally hack it to pieces with the controller emulating the axe you're holding. x3

This absolutely kicks butt.

I think the new controller is absolutely astonishing! I have to disagree with you Andy, because I think this is one of the best designs (if not the best ever)

I know Xbox and Sony are going to be a little puzzled, and quite mad that they won't be doing something more futuristic.

As we can see Nintendo is becoming more and more innovative, while strengthing its hardware so it can once again be the number 1 gaming console.

I think that what Nintendo Exec's said foreshadowed the actual design of the controller, and I laugh at how many people were wrong about the design. I mean literally every single person was wrong. "wow" Nintendo's NDA's really do work XDDDDD

Anyhoo I am off to spread the word of the new controller ^___^
