The joystick is just a Nintendo 64 controller cutted and with a wire to the rest of the controller, the rest doesn't seems so bad, although, it looks like it needs more buttons, where is the "Z", the "R", the "L", and the "C" buttons like a Nintendo 64 controller, a Gamecube controller has even "X" and "Y" buttons right? weird thing to have "A" and "a" and "B" and "b".
As always, you put too much images.
What the?! 8 posts?! forget the double-post rule, you just made a record. I know there is limit in the size of the post but you can reduce that at least to 4 or 5.
It looks like a remote...

Yeah I know I broke the rule, but the news were just coming in and the quicker I posted them, the better, so I used the quickreply(thank God I added that function)(also, this posts are considered important and the rule also states about important posts are valid). Ok, no more double posting. About your questions about the controller, you didn't read the posts right? You just looked at the pictures. I'm just going to say that this will be the best console for "First Person Shooter" games. It will definitely be better than a mouse or touchscreen. This controller gives us an infinite possibilities of game ideas. The conference is now online and translated.EDIT: Forgot to say, the "b" and "a" are the "X" and "Y" buttons. I don't really know which of both names will the buttons have. The first attachment(the control-stick) will have two "Z" buttons. You can see them on the pictures on page 2. Did you noticed that if you rotate the controller you can have a NES shaped controller?

Yeah, you're right, I didn't read your posts, it was too late and I was not going to read all that.
About the NES shape, yes it is pretty similar, it's just stretched, it still looks more like a remote to me.
Well, since until now Nintendo 64 had the best controller for FPS and the joystick looks exactly the same (they just cut it from a N64 controller, they can't fool me), Revolution would surely be at least as good.

Want an awesome but short introduction to the controller in form of video, check the link to the video on the first page, the one that says "Controller in use".
There are a lot of posibilities with the new controller. There will also be new extensions created in the future, so every genre will be perfect.
PS: I think FPS will play better on Revolution than on a PC.

[glow=purple,5,300]Wow, the controller is awesome. Link's right about the FPS. Maybe we will also get cool strategy games like the ones for computer.
The video was cool (The old men are happy, LOL). The sword fight at the end was cool. Nintendo is making a true Revolution.[/glow]

Ok, I never said the controller wasn't cool, I said that you make too much deal about it.
I saw the video too, its cool, although they exaggerate immensely
