IMO, it sounds like nintendo is once again going to distance themselves from third party developers with another whacky controller. which no doubt will be good for the game thier designing it around. but i dont will be good for some other games.
I so agree with this statement........Nintendo never thinks of third parties when they invent their controllers and then they wonder why their 3rd party relationships are suffer.......I'm not saying that the controller is the main reason but it does leave an impression or idea of Nintendo's relation with it's 3rd party.

Have you tried playing fighting games on Cube? I know some people would say hey if you want to play fighting games you can buy an extra third party controller, but I just don't agree with that view.

Is it really that hard to come up with a controller that's innovative and yet caters to third parties?
