Hey man, as long as I get to play old school Contra on there, you can be knocked up with several children for all I care. :p

Re: So...


They really, really need to make a cradle for that thing that turns it into a normal controller with a full set of buttons. And they need to include it stock with each controller. I love the concept of this controller, I'm glad someone is trying to innovate here, but without the ability to play normal games they lose all the cross platform titles and force everyone into unfamiliar territory.

Also, I hear Sony unveiled a more final PS3 controller and... it's the Dual Shock, minus the rumble, add a 6 way tilt sensor. Gee, wonder why the tilt sensor got thrown in...

Why'd they remove the rumble? I still love my Logitech wireless PS2 controller.

They say it's because rumble interferes with readings from the tilt sensor (how'd Nintendo do it then?). More likely it's because of the lawsuit from whatever that company is that actually invented the technology and to whom Sony refuses to pay licensing fees. Microsoft and Nintendo have rumble probably because they're paying.

the WIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (sorry) rumble feature is in the nunchuk section, not in the remote.

It's been rumoured that it's going to be able to play ALL the nintendo games, so turning it into a NES controller would be a smart move for the 'old skool' gamers.

The nunchuck has a tilt sensor also. It's how that one game allows you to use a sword in your left hand to block. I don't think it has the ability to recognize movement in 3D space like the main remote does though.
