Nintendork

TellyN one sesnsor works for 4 controllers and it doesn't compromise the size of your virtual workspace. Only the physical workspace of having 4 of you fighting on the sofa.

"Partner".. It doesn't mean anything except perhaps more profits for Nintendo over their previous distribution model. Perhaps the one that was blamed for some of the failures of the GameCube in the UK market.

What does this mean? No black letterboxs on modern TVs? I thought this shizzle was like standard with Revolution.

You should sing it and send it into 4cr voicemail. Their Skype number is shout4cr and they'll definitely put you in the podcast. You'll have to submit quickly though.. they'll be recording this week's podcast today or tomorrow. 4colorrebellion.com

Certainly not. We've got polls, the original huge thread and photoshop threads.If it is growing on us it surely can go in one of those.

It's hard to balance it really, we know we'll get at least 1 FHC and Nunchaku at launch, the shell will be a relatively cheap and easy to produce accesory because it's just buttons- all the power, chipsets and wireless tech is in the FHC which will slot in. It's not fair to compre it to the WaveBird as technology prices have declined somewhat. It would be in Nintendo's interest to include the Shell so people take advatage of the back catalogue right away.. but not everyone has the internet. Which would make me lean more towards the shell not being included as standard. Only about half the population have internet access last I heard.. that would mean Nintendo would be making a lot of people pay for a Shell which they might never use- It's already cheap and not unreasonable to expect people to pay for it on launch. I think chances are higher that there will be 2 FHC and 1 or 2 Nunchaku in the box. Putting a shell in the box shows: We're not confident our ideas can work.. this is just a backup. By coming out with all FHC guns firing they show that this is something radical you've never seen before. iPod cut out Firewire, Nintendo can cut out classic controllers. They could come out with a load of packages- it's good business to offer packages and bundles.

Yuk on a stick.

Should really be in the creative bolox gallery.

Shows how well people learnt how to use an apostrophe in school.I'm very interested in Kojima's title really.. I hope it rocks- I'll probably buy it.

I hate all the freaking puns. You're not funny people. Besides that the name is okay.

My main worry for the Revolution's game library is that it would have F-Zero and Mario Kart and Wave Race. I don't consider that to be a vaguely suitable racing selection.. I don't think this title will be either of them. I think it's gonna be a simulator because simulators sell a lot of consoles to the average market.. it won't be Gran Turismo, but neither was Forza or Project Gotham.. but they were still pretty good I heard. I agree with Jay. On another note I think this control scheme will be bullshit before I even hear what it is- I'll probably just like use the shell or not buy this game at all. I can't begin to see how it will involve interesting and accurate controls.

Smowza that's better than the real thing, I love it. It doesn't say Wii but Sony have two icons for PlayStation.. the classic one and the new fonted one

This thread's title can be summed up in two simple words: "Your loss." Fin.

I strongly argued against Nintendo including 2 controllers with the system a week or so back. I thought it was a ridiculous move and be unjusitified for all those people who want to play alone. But I think now the name Wii has two i's and they've explained all this togetherness spiel. I am starting to come to term with the idea. Imagine one person has a Wii in their front room... *haze* D00d: Hey what's that? Dood: My Wii D00d: Rad man, you've got 2 controllers.. wanna play? Dood: Sure D00d *haze of fun* In the end, D00d buys a Wii for himself too, it comes with a second controller and hey presto.. just by sharing it with people that come into your house it opens up multiplay and just that 5 minute vs. match of Smash Bros. may be enough to make someone buy it. Why make people come to the game store to try it out and understand the concept? You've got the greatest freaking marketting tool ever. Wii in a base set of houses and it spawns with every person who plays it, loves it and buys it. Again and again. *haze* And you're back in the room. My conclusion is Nintendo will add in a second controller despite the cost factor, and it will work in their advantage because everyone in the family will try it.. show their friends and it will spread like wildfire.

Geist sucked I heard.

Videos of people playing games with the controller, bringing the games out of the 'box in the corner' like they did with the GameCube advert. Bring back the Nintendo start up ping, fade in the Wii logo, hold for 2 seconds. Done.

Chris Moyles hates it, but he's a 360 fanboy. He likes to play Fifa a lot.

When you go to a photograph's individual page- at the top of the photo click 'all sizes' then it will bring up the code so you can paste it on a forum for example.You can then choose the size from a variety of sizes, then below the image you'll see html (which won't work on the forum) and a direct link to the image.

Best photoshop yet.

Stop whinging

What's that Perrin..? Huh? I can't hear you*... My balls are bouncing too loudly on your mother's chin. * I actually agree with Perrin entirely, sure it's on the extreme end of the scale but I think Nintendo needs to go radical to destroy this image they have.

Meo, great avatar buddy. I agree.. they will eat this up in Japan but the success in the West cannot be secured. Welcome to the forums.. I think they'd probably consider something that echo's togetherness and the idea of ripping down walls between demographics of typical gamers- to some extent their idea is still revolutionary. It may single handedly destroy the stereotype of the 'gamer' It's still a Revolution at heart and I think it's pushing the games industry instead of recollecting what you have and keeping them happy.

American men hate Japanese cars, because of what it did to the economy. America has no real electronics production industry.. therefore they will probably have no gripe with a Japanese named games console. I think the result of the name pushing people away is slim and none in a global media world. Very few Americans still follow the ideology that Japanese products screw the world over.

I won best outfit at a fancy dress party for going as the duracell bunny, totally last minute.. made it in about 4 hours out of a coke bottle and painted it black, printed out Duracell and the logo and everything, taped it to my back and rocked out with my battery out. Totally unrelated fancy dress info.. basically I got bored of them after the third party and I just don't go to them anymore.. the effort to benefit ratio doesn't work unless it's on a weeknight.

Award for funniest post in the thread goes to Demuwan. Classic.
