More idiot "analysts"...

[Paco]

What complaints? Other than idiocy like? It's too complex and I don't know which of the things to hold when I first pick it up (takes like five minuites to figure out...), I can't think of anything...

Ever picked up a controller you didn't like?

You'll pretty much need one for SNES and N64 downloads, as well as many third-party titles, so I am sure that they will be widely available and widely used. No question about it.

You're taking it for granted that everyone, or a majority, will want to download old games.

As for the last part, it sure looks like what you'd really rather do is criticize it instead of think of how it could be good for the industry.

How good it could be for the industry? Dear lord, Nintendo has brainwashed you into thinking there is a problem with the industry. It's thriving in case you didn't know, and it's expected to grow. I'm sure you'll try to sell me some doomsday prediction, but, please, spare me. I'm enjoying the current generation and I'm pleased with what I've seen of the next generation.

EDIT: I realize that, if successful, Nintendo could help the industry grow in a new direction.

I've only talked in probability based on the current situation and with the little information we know. I've repeated myself at least three times now that it could work very well and be embraced or fall wayward. It could also land somewhere comfortably inbetween those two extremes.

The new controller is not proven, and I've not played anything like it. How can you be so adamant about something you know so little about? I suspect only because Nintendo is behind it, but please feel free to correct me.
