arab_freak Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 Remember when those buttons were removed to make way for this? Why did they put them back? In my opinion, the "pause" and "return" buttons looked a lot nicer.
Cubechris Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 That return button looks wank, and a pause button ain't needed, just press Home for that I guess. As for + and -, meh.
Dante Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 Well [-] & [+] are used for games now like Zelda:TP.
martinist Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 no idea, maybe it was to add more functionallity to the controler, + and - can do alot of things where as pause and return can do just one
AshMat Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 I never really thoguht aqbout these buttons until i watched the Gamespot marathonyesturday, and it was used in a few games.
blender Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 maybe when they decided that it was not a dvd player , they became slightly irrelevant
arab_freak Posted November 11, 2006 Author Posted November 11, 2006 So...what do they do? I thought they were "too far" for your thumb to use properly in a game.
ZeldaFreak Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 pause screen and all that select screen, it would be be better to have "||" and "->"/"+" buttons in my opinion
Caris Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 If you press the return button it brings you to N-europe.
gaggle64 Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 Do they not control the little speaker volume? That's what I would have thought anyway.
AshMat Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 Do they not control the little speaker volume? That's what I would have thought anyway. Maybe on some games. But none of the ones they played on Gamespot yesturday.
Jasper Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 The + and - buttons are actually much better looking on the controller. Simplicity is what they aim for.
Guest Stefkov Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 I never noticed when they changed back, i saw them like that, and then saw them when they were + and -, i like it better as + and -
Zechs Merquise Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 the gaming world shakes! I will not buy a Wii now, I hate + and - lol
Jasper Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 In reviews it could be handier saying 'pressing + shows the inventory', easier than 'pressing back' or 'pressing pause' - it just doesn't fit that well with A, B, 1 & 2.
Zell Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 I like the + and - theme. Makes a lot of sense if for instance if you increase/decrease the volume with + and - rather than "start" and "select".
