Nintendo/Revolution Press Conference

[Dylflon]

Brun olol!

Xantar, I had big post planned in response, but instead I'll make one simple request:

Please find three posts you've made in which you are critical of anything Nintendo does. I'll be shocked if you find one.

I fully believe that within 18 months of Rev's launch, the majority of the system's games will be played with a Wavebird.

Your point being? I've never claimed to be impartial. I'm a Nintendo fan. I'm perfectly willing to say that their marketing sucks and they tend to whore out Mario, but I also like their games and have always liked them and don't see any reason why I'll stop.

Meantime, if you don't want to actually answer any of my points, and want to hide behind ad hominem attacks all the time, that's fine. It's not as if I was trying to change your mind or anything.

That's true, although I get the impression from Jim Merrick that he would like the "non-revolutionary" controller to plug in to the motion-sensing remote control device so that you can have your regular control and motion sensing at the same time.

Although since none of us has three hands, I'm not sure exactly how that's supposed to work. Maybe you could just give the motion sensor part to a second player?

have they mentioned whether the 'extentions' and the remote itself need batteries or just the remote?

Have they mentioned if they will need special Nintendo brand batteries?

they said sony brand batteries and batteries bought by bill gates will not work in it.


perhaps the other part (analog stick part) needs batteries too, but it may need an extra 'extention' to hold the batteries

I think the non-rev controller with have the standard button layout (four face buttons) or possibly six buttons for N64 games (and 2D fighters ) Tthe GCN controller ports are probably there purely for GCN games since some might be a bit more difficult to play on a standard controller.

Yes, I do like beer. In fact I'm having one right now.

[Teuthida]

Everything looks better in wood.

[GameMaster]

I'm most excited about trying out the Project Revolution Controller simply because it's radically innovative and different. Me and my friend are really curious to see how Super Smash Bros. will operate under this amazing new device.

[Teuthida]

The leading developers of HAL have led us to believe that the next installment of Super Smash Bros. works exceedingly well with the Project Revolution Controller of which was recently unveiled to the public. I quiver with anticipation at the sheer wonderment and sense of immersion such an experience will brandish. More details on the marvelous pairing of game and device should be expected in the coming months.

See if you can find some of this stuff next time you're at an actual liquor store
