blowMeNeo Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Everything here are people speculating. We have seen the controller and the game console itself. How do we know that a steering wheel and other accessories won't be available when the unit is released? We don't. No sense in debating this, lets wait and see the final product.

Laughing-Man Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Clearly you are not old enough to drive, because in the real world , one must turn the steering wheel more than 360 degrees in one direction (left or right ) to make a perpindicular turn.In a racing simulator, the same steering principles would apply. Try spinning that controller 720 degrees clockwise and see how much fun a racing simulator would be :wacko: 586532600[/snapback] One of my roommate in colleges had a steering wheel for GT4, I could be wrong don't really recall having to turn the steering wheel 360 in that game. Turning the steering wheel 90 degrees made the car do a sharp right, which would eventually rotate the car around 180 degrees if you had enough room.@Spartan_X: IGN clearly said these are not games for the Revolution, they were showing possibilities for the controller. Read the article, they use Black and White and Rome: Total War from the PC as examples too so it is pretty obvious it is not for the Revolution.

I was talking about the steering weel in games... It won't be a problem since you can tilt it atleast 90 degrees. I really don't see the problem. You would't have to rotate it 720 degrees at all....

People hold TV remote controls for long periods of time all the time, they should be used to it. You hold a controller up to play games, how is holding this tiny remote going to be any more painful? I thought it would look painful at first, but I remembered how much I hold remotes in my hand for the TV and such, it doesn't seem like it would hurt that much. Its square like the original NES controller too and I didn't have many problems with that.

iconboy Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 hey all heres my 2 cents... I love Nintendo, but someone really needs to smack them and wake them up! This is the same mistake they made with the N64 and Gamecube- they made a controller for mario and... nothing else! Miyamoto had a big hand int he N64 and GC controllers and he designed it for his games, and they are perfect for mario- but.. nothing else. How am i gunna use this controller with a street fighter game? its just weird.

Deathray Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 People are forgetting that even though this remote is so small, it can be put in skins and such for different purposes. Also, the design of the control is not final yet, and to truly judge it, one really has to use it to either say it's stupid or not in reality. But the possibilities are definetely, in my view, insane.

icecaveman Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 jmole so purchase additonal controller. That's even difficult to get some places since they are often only sold WITH gamecubes at retail stores in some countries.
