Screw the Nunchaku and the classic controller

These expansions ruin the concept of the Revoution imo.

Imagine :

You come home from work, are a bit tired. You put yourself into the couch, relax and watch some tv. But there's only garbage. You think - what else can I do ? Then you grab the revolution controller laying on the couch table beside you and put the Rev on (with the on-button on it). Then you can play some stuff with one hand, while the other hand...
Hopefully mostly easy to play games and no loading times will add to this concept.

That'd be just awesome and I'd play certainly much more. (if there will be a good line-up this time)

Though I have to admit, that for some genres you JUST NEED a Nunchaku.

All together now: One Revolution Thread Future!

Im not sure the Xbox 360 got 3.2 Million Threads I think the Revolution deserves at least half.

Aw, Mario Kart avatar dude takes swipe at competitor to justify own foibles... :(

Its strange that you think me talking about the number of Xbox 360 posts is a bash toward the actual 360, I probably read everyone of those threads, I dont hate or dislike the X360 I would own one if it was'nt going to be $650AUD.

Back on Topic, I just dont hope having all these NunChuck controllers, Expansions and Remotes does'nt make things even more confusing.
 
On the subject of one handedness.

I found it surprisingly easy to use the left analog stick holding the GC Pad with just my left hand. Now if you add 2 trigger buttons (ala nunchaku addon ), then it should be possible to play most NES games with just one hand.

Are you implying that your other hand would be manipulating your penis as you bounced Mario around the screen?!

If the revmote doubles as a universal remote, cable of switching half decent televisions to the game channel (with a quick boot up) yes I think you may be onto something. Nintendo really wants to have immediate/simple gaming I think. Not sure if I like that idea though.
 
In the latest issue of GI, Miyamoto suggests that Nintendo will package the various controller add ons with games, much like they've done before with the N64.

But, how are they going to package this stuff with the Revolution? We know you'll get the nunckaku set up, but what about the classic controller? Imo, that needs to be packaged with the Revolution, for "regular" games as well as the Virtual Console games, especially from N64; Nintendo shouldn't just assume that people have a Gamecube controller already.

Revolution:
Revolution system+Nunchaku controller+Classic controller add on+1 free Virtual Console download=$200 (or $250)
