AshMat Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 At EIEF in Edinburgh (where I got to play Twilight Princess ) the stylus' were attached the DS stand with a wire. I assume they'll fix a hook or something onto the end of it and tie it to something. See image below for it it would work with the Revo... Why do i get the feeling blue tak won't keep it fixed?
dabookerman Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Well, they managed it somehow when they showed the revocontroller for the first time at ECTS... ECTS WTF!?!?!?!........
demonmike04 Posted January 21, 2006 Author Posted January 21, 2006 ECTS WTF!?!?!?!........ Exactly what i was thinking. Darkjak it was TGS, i think you knew that but wasnt sure of the name. I guess the wire theory will be the safest way for nintendo to promote the revolution in demo's then, but i can still sense store managers whining about messy wires after some idiot plays around with it.

gmanprime Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 They could just have some kind of a vest on the controller that a chain atached that dosnt get in the way.
gmanprime Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 On top of that they would need to have the nunchuku permanently attached. On the up side since people would need more room to play the demos revolution might get a bigger chunk of the stores. On the down side the complications and the room issues might cause retaler not to get a revolution demo pod at all.
Sonic238 Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 [...] The PSP at my game store was under strict supervision, when he told me the price I immediately gave it back to him and said no thanks, I'm not paying £20 to get one of those on launch. ...freudian? yeah i think it'll be a long wire... or another way could be that they put on the controller one of those metall thingies that make the thing after the cashier go *bleep* ... c'mon, you know what i mean! those things with a light attached on top, preventing you to steal something. argh, i surrender.
Kurtle Squad Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 Nindendo will probably make special Demo Pod versions of the controllers, in which the attachments are unable to take out without a key or something (which the shop will own). There will be thick wires attaching the controller to the pod, and if the shop isnt stupid, maybe cameras :p
AshMat Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 Cameras right above the tv pointed at the player so that their faces can be seen. electromagnets at the exit so if someone tries to walk out with it then it gets stuck to the top of the door and can't be removed until the magnet is switched off.
Nintendork Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 Come again? I still remember playing on the N64 demo pods at dixons, and the GC pods in both gamestation and game. There are 3 gamecubes and 1 GBA SP in my town, and 2 DS consoles. Thought the 1st DS was removed for space for the xbox 360. It's not a big town either.. We used to play SSX3, mario golf, f-zero in virgin in our lessons off.
xanikseo Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 I think they will use those elastic rubbery-plastic type wires. They're so durable, I have one of those thype things and I've done everything to try and break it, but it stays put...
Charlie Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 Why do i get the feeling blue tak won't keep it fixed? I don't know... You get some pretty damn strong blue tak nowadays
Smowza Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 i thought nintendo already said something about demo pods? something like it wasnt suited to be experienced on a demo pod. If they do decide on having the rev in demo pods then i hope they make a better job of it than they did with gamecube, they looked cheap and nasty (apart from the blue lighting).... most of the people who i worked with commented on how the cube was kiddy and never played it even when the shop was closed! er.. rogue leader kiddy??? madness
