Qouted from The Economist September 17th - 23rd 2005 issue. "And because most of the money in the game industry is made from software, not hardware, Nintendo makes the most profit among gaming firms, even though it only has a 15% market share, notes Paul Jackson of Forrester, a consultancy."

Don't you know this is a discussion about video games?
Get out and take your heathen facts with you!
Although I will add that the above probably includes Nintendo's portable-console sales, so a strictly GC/Xbox/PS2 comparison would probably skew differently.
--- Quote from: DavidGrohl --- Grab your TV remote (if you can find it). Grip it tightly and just hold it like that for about 15 minutes. Not comfortable is it? Holding your hand in a "C" / Soda can style way will get very annoying, especially if you plan on playing with the thing for an hour or more. With a regular controller, your hand can relax on and take shape to the controller.
Maybe if they were to offer a regular format controller to start with and then have an optional controller or maybe include it with the regular format controller, the Revolution wouldn't go down in flames.

1. With something like the Rev controller, you can't just put it out as an add on, it has to be part of the installed base so it's actually worth it for game developers to work with it.
2. I don't get how holding this thing is going to be any different from holding either end of a PS2 controller. Long knobbly bit, buttons up near the thumb... hell you've even got a groove in there for your index finger, so you don't have to reach up to the top of the controller for the trigger buttons.

Vgcats summed it up quite nicely. I'm willing to give Nintendo the benefit of the doubt as well just because of RE4 and ToS... there's fight left in them! Also, judging from the trailer, I imagine there'll be some kind of sword fighting game... I hope! I mean, Tiger Friggin' Electronics has done it, so why not Nintendo?

You mean there are people who still watch television? How quiant!

This is a mock-up, but before you get your pants in a twist, perhaps you should consider the fact that it might not look like that, but apparently there will be a cradle for it.
Change is good anyway.

Good point, this is just the first public mock up. Isn't the Revolution not even scheduled till first quarter 06?
