your link calls the controller the wii remote sad.gif i actually am a fan of the IGN name for it (the wii-mote)

that controller you posted about though, i'll admit it looks ugly, but it does look very functional and comfortable. i just wonder if the wii is going to ship with all of that stuff, or what it will come with as far as controller stuff goes.

on a side note there is a lightgun shell for the wii-mote for duckhunt/duckhunt sequel

Well, if you've seen their E3 presentation, you'll quickly realize there's absolutely nothing "revolutionary" about this console. So the name change is more than appropriate.

Personally, I think if they kept "Revolution" as it official name, it would have become the butt of jokes.

Actually, fans came up with the name, IGN helped it stick. Before it was Wii, it was called the revmote, then changed to wiimote.

I like the look of that actually  happy.gif

Only thing they did wrong was the thumb sticks.  I HATE the joysticks being on the same level, like the PS2  grr.gif

I disagree.  I think the new use of the remote is the next big thing.  Case in point:  Sony stole the tech idea from Nintendo and are going to use the same thing for the soon-to-fail PS3.  If you might recall, whenever a controller changes, the game follows suit.  Nintendo have always been the ones to up the ante on that side of gaming.


Totally agree... NEVER forget who was first with the analog stick.
