Now, wireless is great and all, and yes a wireless controller that always works perfectly is superior to any wired controller.
I just wanted to make it clear that the feature just means nothing to me, that's all. I just have no need for it. All my hardware is in one room already, cable modem, computer, EVERY SINGLE CONSOLE I OWN, and it's all currently hooked up at that. However, the only wires you'll see are the JUNGLE YOU WILL GET LOST IN behind my PC and TV. Recently, I've come across some nice little things that bundle up the cords so you no longer have to worry about all that extra length, and I tend to hook up all my stuff from the start so it's not tangled up. What I'm saying is, I don't have a huge cord problem.
Ah yes, the rumble pack needed batteries... That SUCKED! I've mentioned it before and all though :D.
GR, the only thing is, they could have designed the wave bird with a rumble switch built in to disable and enable it. There, you have your favored mode, and others who prefer all the features they can get from a game, no matter the triviality, can get it. Besides, when I'm playing OOT and MM, I like using the stone of agony.
If they pack in wireless controllers from the start next generation, I will have no complaints at all, given two caveats. One, they better have rechargeble batteries. Two, it better have a perfect signal that can only be interrupted by a nuclear blast nearby. I'm not going to be beaten in a time trial all boss melee because the controller messed up one time and I fell in a bottomless pit because of it. One other thing. If it's rechargeble, they should harken back to the old famicom. I mean, it would be nice if they set up a recharge station so you can just put the controller in it's slot like you would a portable phone.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
