Nintendo Revolution Controller

The Nintendo Revolution controller. It explaines it in itself, it's weird. It is from Nintendo people. Well, Nintendo has finally announced and shown off their new controller at Tokyo Game Show 05' in Japan (lucky japanese). The controller is in a remote kind of style. So now, if you lose the controller, you can say the ever popular phrase, "Darn, I lost the remote!" Ok, so it is weird, but this is no ordinary remote, it has the controlles on it. This is going to feel WEIRD in you hands. So, you probably won't get this remote mixed up with the T.V. remote. Now, there is an analog stick, but one thing, it is an attachment! Oh man, that is Out of the box. This is actually pretty cool. I mean, easier to hold. Now on the remote controller (the main one), on top there is an on and off button, a D-Pad, A button, then the select and start button are in the same row, but with the home button in the middle. Under that is the usual B and A buttons, then 4 lights labeled 1-4. Probably to tell you how many controllers the Revo can read. Under that is the classic Nintenod symbol, and under that is the slot to connect attachments, such as the analog stick. On the back is a weirdly placed B trigger, which is weird because there is already a B button. Now on the analog stick attachment, there is of course the analog stick, and 2 Z buttons. Yes 2! Who knows what those are for. Apparently there is no R and L trigger, so we are still wondering what is going on with that. Now, there is no C-Stick, but that is ok. You know why? The controller is you C-Stick!! "What?!" you ask, well, the thing has a sensor that is used as the C-Stick. Move it left, the camera goes left, move it right, it goes right, and so on. This is really, really cool. The only problem with this, is that if you move it slightly by accident, it moves. This will get annoying. We are hoping that is not the case. The thing is wireless, which is good. My thoughts on the Revo controller is that it is going to change the video game controller market forever. It is a very "Revolutionary" controller, very original, very surprising, very hopeful. I will enjoy using this controller. Ton's thinks that this controller will either bomb, or succeed. He thinks that the controller is great for FPS'. I agree, the analog stick in the other hand, and the sensor aim, great for them. We want to know what you think! So please leave comments. One of our loyal readers, d.s., says, "I'm not feeling the controller. It's different. It might end up being truly "revolutionary", or it might put Nintendo 6 feet under. I think this is a big move by them, very risky. I'll have to try it somewhere else before I would decide to buy it." He makes good points. Check out his blog, he has more about his thoughts on the Revo controller. It is called, "That's Doug's Life. My thoughts, My life, My blog". So we want to hear from you.
