Nintendo saves the gaming industry
Thank you, Nintendo. Finally the gaming industry has been saved. Now, some idiots will jump to conclusions about the new Nintendo Revolution controller. But if you actually do some research, (watch the video at IGN), you'll be amazed at what Nintendo has done.

Finally, we are moving away from buttons. More buttons and more sticks can only go so far before it becomes something like a keyboard. Infact, the 360 controller even has a keyboard extension. Why not just use a computer?

The fact is, this is the way personal computers were before the mouse. You used a bunch of keys and buttons to control the computer. This is very similar to the way game consoles are today. Now Nintendo has gone and done the same thing Apple did 20 years ago. Games will be completely different - innovative, amazing to look at, and fun. First person shooter? Use the controller as a virtual gun. Baseball? Use it as a virtual bat! Fishing? Cast out and reel in with the controller. I'm sure there will be many other possibilities as well, and Nintendo demonstrates a few of them in their video.

It will be very fun and different to play games on the Revolution. Honestly, I can't wait. While Microsoft and Sony have absolutely no innovation, Nintendo decides to take a huge risk and put a completely new and amazing product out. After watching the video, I'm certain that this will be the future of gaming.
My feelings exactly. I can't wait to buy one of those gems.
