Let's bust a move!
Just kidding, just want to get your take on the controller Nintendo revealed for the Revolution, which the console name should be. There's been a lot of mix reaction toward the controller Nintendo revealed not too long ago. You have Nintendo fan praise and bashing the controller. You have people using the controller as another reason why Nintendo has no idea what they're doing. We have people thinking this move in the right direction. What do you think?
I'm in-between at the moment. I can see this controller making my game experience much more inter-active. Just imagine playing Zelda on with that controller and swing the sword around with that controller. That would be pretty cool. One of the downfall I see to this controller is will I be comfortable using it? It's different from any controller ever released on console before. So, not sure if I'll like how it feel yet or not.
Though, in the end, looking at from Nintendo's point of view, it's a move in a direction of being different and new. The current path Nintendo was flowing would just end up with them being gone from the console business sooner or later. Release another generic controller along with generic games would lead them where? A nice spot in dead last behide Microsoft and Sony. Meaning Microsoft and Sony are getting majority of the sales, not Nintendo. I still believe this good move on Nintendo's part, but only time will tell if this was the correct move to make or not.
