notice how red, silver, yellow,lime green controllers were never made? also 1=x, 2=y and on the nunchuck Z2=c, Z1=Z power button was made circular and turns off the console rather than the controller.
You know what's sad is the bait. I always used to think of Wii controls + classic franchises = new ways to play them. These games are literal (Wii Sports, other gimmick games); we've only had two Mario games, one Zelda, and one Metroid with another on the way. Hardly any 3rd party support has really dried it up, and most of that gameplay regards swinging to attack.
I'm a classic gamer till the end, so I always like to see what's happening to my favorite franchises before seeing new ones.
I remember hearing of the nintendo revolution controller and I was all like "OH NO THEY DIDN'T" and nintendo was all like OH YEAH WE DID!!! then I forgot about it until the wii came out.
the connecter port to the wiimote from the nunchuck was changed to a smaller,less bulky verson. but they shod of kept the x and y button. 1 and 2 is so not nintendo. but to the side of the x and y buttons, ule notice a a and b letters. (likely for virtual console NES games)
i think it should have stayed the Revolution only because every age group could play it unlike sony or microsoft which is just young adults,but i could see for that reason why Wii.Also they have the virtual console which revolutionizes previous games and consoles that may have been discontinued
that's sad, they had to rename the revolution to wii, the reason being something about "... wii stand united..." and some other crap that is implying stuff about wifi...
Wii has gotten stuck in my head, i keep forgetting to call it the revolution...
I believe it's because the Wii name would appeal to casuals more. When they said revolution I though it meant that gaming was changing for the better but now I know that Nintendo only cares about non gamers.

A game where you just swat flies? A game where you shake the controller upward to jump? It's only now in the middle of the Wii's life do we realize these are monumentally retarded ideas for games.
It had awesome music, yes. But it's monumentally stupid content to make a full fledged game out of. I mean, sure, it may have been acceptable in the 80s but it sure as hell isn't today.
I doubt they would build an entire game around fly swatting, but it would probably be fun in the context of a game like Wario Ware. Anyway, the point is kind of moot, since I don't think they've released any sort of fly swatting game, and I haven't heard about one.
Wow that looks really fun..I am very interested in how the flashlight and sword will work. I'm not sure I will get a NR...if its hell lot cheaper than PS3 then count me in.
Geez people. Anyone who denies how amazingly fun the new controllers look is a total idiot. Stupid fanboys... why can't you guys get it through your thick skulls that all consoles are playable? Why don't you guys venture out of your little sony/microsoft comfort zones and at least TRY nintendo? it's just a gaming system. Geez. the stupidity of kids these days is driving me crazy.
What is going through you people's heads? That thing looks awesome, and I for one am definitely getting a revolution! If you think it's so horrible, then why even comment? Gosh! Critics ruin all the fun for people trying to enjoy something...
nintendo is gonna be the new sega with this crap. they are getting destroyed on the console market and they come up with this? If it was for the DS/Gameboys nintendo would be making games for sony and xbox. here i used to stick up for nintendo especiall against the sega fanboys. R.I.P
yes phlipsidenigga, and i supose if your mother's batteries run out for her vibrator she can turn the controller sideways too and pleasure herslef....turn it sideways to get an old school pad? hahahahahahaha. what else are we gonna hear from these dumbshits? just take a good look at the losers playing revolution in the clip... it looks GAY you dorks! REVOLUTION=DEATH OF NINTENDO. (good ridance, we've endured enough of your shitty sub-par gimmicky elementary machines) NEXT!
Hey!! if u guys don't like the new controller then fine.. say dont like them, and u dont need to buy them!! A word for 'the138misfit68' SHUT UP!! Dont play these games then... u dont need to play other games!! you can just play ur donkey kong country for the rest of your life.. GEeezz
i was wondering if the games were like this, u know movement oriented and all, like thoes $20 ones or what ever for the low bit sports games. its a niffty little idea

No thats not , dumbo!
the nunchuk's buttons are Z1 and Z2. Z2 i think became the only Z.
buttons 1 and 2 were x and y ffor the revolution.
The Power button is retangular instead of circular.
I think the B button is a bit sleeker too , IIRC.

Well, here we are in 2007. And what have we learned from this "revolution"?
-Nintendo is full of a bunch of self-righteous assholes that give themselves far too much credit.
-The concept is actually way more gimmicky than we expected.
-Games where you grate cheese, fold laundry, do the vacuum and perform dentistry actually suck moose balls intensely.
-The control isn't as fluid as they make it out to be, and 1:1 sword movement is likely impossible.
Fuck you, Nintendo.
