It's cool and everything, but I don't like how it looks like a remote.. and the button placement. How are you supposed to reach the A and B buttons while you're doing the d-pad? I know with two hands, but some article said you only hafta hold it with one. And yes, I've seen the trailer.. but yeah, I don't like it much, but I'm still getting the Revolution, for sure.

The A and B buttons at the bottom aren't used in regular gaming, they're used for when you flip the controller over to play old-school games.

I'd never be able to use a remote as a controller.

lol...i don't think they understand how the controls work....

The remote is used as remote.
The a and b buttons are only used for old school games.
The muenster cheese tastes good.

The rest can be figured out by watching the video of someone using it....but i don't know where it is :P

^The Video

And it is confirmed that "Reveloution" is not the name of the system. Apprently they already have a name but will not reveal it for a few months. I hope its not  crap name like the wi-fi network name they came up with(Nintendo Wi-Fi Network)

I don't think that many people realize that.

AHH I CAN"T FIND IT!

there's a pic of the official nintendo racing wheel, where it's just a plastic U and the 'remote' part plugs into the middle

Figuring that the remote does 3d motion, possibly you would be able to use the wheel for flight games. I can imagine crimson skies being incredible on this system.

some1 pls find the pic of the wheel :P

Nintendo has done something innovative with that controller, but what are the chances of a lot of third party developers actually making their games playable with a controller that is that much different?  Extremely low I'd say.  

Nintendo finally stopped using prorietary formats to hold their games, and now they're using a controller that just doesn't relate to the rest, and I think it's going to be their downfall.  They at least need to put out a normal controller AND that controller.

don't worry kids.

they have a convertor on the way. you just plug the remote part into the middle of a wavebird-looking controller and it changes it back.
