    Re: Nintendo Revolution

    You can try the 360 though. It is playable this year.

    What I heard Reggie say about the controllers was that the Revolution can play all Nintendo games, and if you put all the controllers side by side up to the Gamecube, they're all different. Now imagine what a controller would be to be able to play all of those games.

    Its not quoted because I don't know the exact things he said, but that was pretty much all that was said about the controller.

    Re: Nintendo Revolution

    What could it possibly need to include? 1-2 joysticks, 1-2 d-pads, 2+ thumb buttons, 2-4 index finger buttons, and 1-2 center buttons. Hell, the most off-the-wall thing they can do is to make the controller a single control stick with buttons on and a secondary part with d-pad and anything else that isn't on the control stick.

    I think what he meant is that you can play all of the NES, SNES, and N64 games with the GameCube controller.

    Re: Nintendo Revolution

    You know... you could just... but a different controller... I don't like the Xbox controller and never use it nowdays. I bought a cheap adapter and use my PS2 controller. I do the same for my PC, and if the Revolution will let me play all the NES SNES and N64 games, I'd ofcourse, buy an adapter if I need to.

    Yeah, I'd expect a repeat of the last generation where Microsoft and Sony go for the $299 price point and Nintento goes for $199.
