nintendo nintendo... why dont you realize you do things the market isnt ready for...
They may just have to much creativity for their own good... they showed their new concept for their entire video game system called the revolution it is all based on a weird controller that can sens motion.. yes it seems kinda cool and fun for different games, but as much as some people might like the new type of game how will i play my metal gear, how will i play mario cart, smash brothers... how will any developer support you system and other systems, how will you support pc games?
here is the promo video:

Q: What does the conventional controller cradle/shell do?
A: This add-on makes it possible to play Revolution games in a more traditional manner. The shell is designed to look and function like accepted "regular" controllers, such as the Wave Bird. After its bottom casing is removed, the Revolution's free-hand-style remote is inserted into a gap in the middle of the controller shell. Gamers can then use the shell as they would a traditional controller, with a notable difference: the pointer remote's sensory functionality remains active. As a result, gamers get the best of both worlds: more buttons and two analog sticks along with motion-sensing operations. In a Revolution version of Madden Football, gamers might be able to use the combo to control players with the shell's analog sticks and execute pinpoint passes with the pointer's improved accuracy.

gamers are excited about the craziness of this controller/system, my only question is how do they plan to compete with graphics output of other systems and other built in features of the new systems.
by the way i recently bought a game cube, mostly for smash bros melee and mario party 6 and i love it.

that is cool i didnt read about the shell, but if it doesnt come with the shell for free that means that many people wont own it so will developers want to develop for it... like the 4 player extention on ps2 less used than xbox 4 player.
