REVOLUTION CONTROLLER HAS BEEN REVEALED!!!!!

[N_A]

Well I think Nintendo has definitely acheived the uniqueness that could have a potential to reign the competition, especially now that we know that there is a cradle for the remote that has a conventional controller design to it. First of all, they could make a real nail in the coffin for the competitors if they would just support HDTV, but in terms of uniqueness, every freaking Xbox and PS3 game can probably be ported to the Revolution. However, any game that is made with the Revolution in mind, cannot be played well on the other systems for lack of a way to control it the way it was intended to be controlled.

Unfortunately, I think this can go both ways for Nintendo. Either developers like this idea, and begin to develop a lot of exclusives for Nintendo while porting all the other multiconsole games to Nintendo, or they will think that it is an extra hassle to try to program exclusive titles that use something vastly different from the other consoles to be worth the investment. However, if they care about the games, they'll realize that they can probably rally behind Nintendo, and make a lot of cash by making exclusive games, as well as conventional multiconsole ports.

Indeed I think the controller is awesome, and Nintendo definitely acheived the goal of uniqueness. Now that we've seen the thing, the other consoles have got nothing in terms of gameplay. All they've got really is the potential to have a better graphics, but games will essentially be the same. Here is where Nintendo will definitely go down in history as having initiated a "revolution" in console gaming, and likely to affect PC gaming too I'm sure. We can also be sure that Sony and MS will shamelessly rip of Nintendo in the next round, but to be optimistic, maybe this will allow Nintendo to return to the good old SNES days of absolute domination.
