Yeah. That's it. For real this time. But it's not just a TV remote. It has the abiltiy to sense motion and distance from the console in all three dimensions, and a light-gun esque sensor that lets it point and click like a mouse... Which will make First Person Shooters REALLY simple to control...

Other than that, I have really mixed feeligns about this. It could turn out some great games, but I have a bad feeling that this thing will make third party developers run, run fast as they can to the XB360 and PS3. And if THAT happens, Nintendo is screwed no matter how great their games are.

Well. What are your all's thoughts?


I think XBox is the new king of the hill, however I don't think Nintendo's going away in the near future. They've got a LOCK on the younger kids (like 8-14, or something) and a lot of parents who grew up on it are making a return. I bought a GC a few months ago. Plus now the GBA Micro that they just introduced can hopefully make up for the DS debacle, although I think currently it's only available in Japan. They're offering huge chunk of their gaming library from the last 20 years with it, so that'll be enough for me to pick it up when it comes out.

Why do you think developers will abandon the platform?
