Posted September 17, 2005 Did anyone stop and think about the controller demo clip? After watching it, yes, it's obvious that the TV screen isn't shown switched on at all throughout the clip, but maybe that's a hint at something else. True, it may be that Nintendo just didn't want to show us any game footage, or it could be that there is still something else they don't want us to see. Could it be that there is still a surprise in store for us when it comes to how the games are displayed on-screen? Remember the mention of the psuedo-VR display? Any ideas?

Posted September 17, 2005 The guy turns it off at the end. True, pressing the off button on the revo controller probably wouldn't turn the actual tv off but you're reading way too much into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 17, 2005 I read somewhere that the controller isn't Nintendo's trump card though, that they have more in store to tell us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 17, 2005 I read somewhere that the controller isn't Nintendo's trump card though, that they have more in store to tell us No, he didn't say the controller wasn't the trump card. Eurogamer: Is the freehand-style controller your trump card, or have we got more exciting stuff to look forward to? Jim Merrick: Let's just say we have more surprises in store. Although only a subtle difference, that's a big difference from saying head on "The controller is not our trump card." He just said there are more surprises in store. Personally, I wouldn't expect anything as major as the controller. It'll mainly be things to do with the wi fi network me thinks. Bless your exciteable cotton socks though!

Posted September 17, 2005 Here we go, people already ready to start rumours. Soon they'll be a news report from the rag online magazines claiming that something else, bigger then the controller and online and the downloading games service will be revealed at.. next e3 or something. They definately produced something really shocking though. I didn't think with all the speculation and thinking and wondering that they could in the end come up with something that hadn't already been dreamed up and in the end they left everyone speachless.

Posted September 17, 2005 I read an interesting article yesterday(i'll try and find it) where a nintendo rep states that with the DS announcement in January, they only announced the two screens, because they couldn't show the touchscreen working properly because of lack of software, so that is why they delayed the announcement till E3. He noted that this is a similar situation with the revolution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 17, 2005 So if this is true, can we expect another "roumor wave". You just know that people are going to be saying all sorts of things about this other surprise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
