Nintendo Revolution Controller Revealed

Nintendo's profit has mostly to do with the Gameboy, so they can afford to risk 3rd party home support. who'd want a third conventional console anyway?

Nintendo is the only one who could do this, financially, and engineering-wise. should be fun and accessible. it still won't replace the conventional systems however, your arm/wrist would fall off after hours of Halo.

Good article about Nintendo and their business strategies

this thing just looks like it was designed for kids like those sports games where u interact with the tv ie bowling, baseball, and soccer. I'm a bit old fashioned on some things and I'm more comfortable spending the type of money these systems r gonna cost on a system with a controller that is the most comfortable for me rather than an expiremental controller that I KNOW I'd personally break out of frustration in less than a month, lol. If Nintendo keeps up their pace with recent system releases, we will see them go the route of Sega sooner rather than later. Atleast they have gameboys to keep them a float, and on that note, what the heck is up with the gameboy micro?

you can use gamecube controllers if you want as well i believe, and the remote looking thing also has expansion ports for various additions to the controller or secondary controllers etc you'd rather use instead. Plus, sega works for them now :)

well if Nintendo were to lose more 3rd party titles, there'd be no way for them to compete especially in the biggest video market in the world, the US. I wish all of these sytems would wait a while cuz all I want is another system to keep me as happy as my Genesis back in the day. man I miss that system, might have to buy one off of ebay now, lol.

i thought japan was a much bigger market... especially for ps2 and psp's, but i think nintendo is much bigger there as well....

they might have a higher per house ratio but that's also cuz they have just a few less people to buy them than the US. Sony is #1 in Japan with Nintendo #2 while in the US it's Sony #1 / Microsoft #2 / and Nintendo a distant 3rd. The main things that really killed Nintendo on this last generation of systems was a severe lack of 3rd party development support which is linked to the other factor: no real online service.
