[font=\"Arial\"]The Revolution is still a box shrouded in mystery and wrapped in an enigma, and thus the rumor mill simply can't help but speculate endlessly about it. As of late, one of the rumors is that of a touch screen on the already amazing 'Magic Wand' styled controller. However, I believe this isn't cost effective and thus not within Nintendo's strategy of keeping prices low. Personally (NB. this is based on nothing at all, except my superb intellect), I believe that there will be some sort of DS connectivity for some games to make use of the touch screen where necessary. I believe this would work a lot better than the GBA-GC connectivity debacle (no cords, yay!), and would truly be a synergy in revolutionary ways to play games.

Anyways, my soapbox aside, here is the quote that started up the rumor:
[quote][i]?The beauty of the new Revolution controller is that the possibilities for new game ideas are limitless. I'm sure that Nintendo already has a number of phenomenal design concepts built around 3D Pointing or Touch Sensitivity for their 1st party games. Our developers are inspired and excited by the new controller's features.?[/i]

[b][color=\"#FF0000\"]Man, I can't tell you hold old the rumor for a "touch screen controller" is, that is actually one of the oldest rumors and I dunno which is wors,e it taking so long to get here or the fact it even was bothered to be put up. People even made concept controllers, such as one that looked like a Wavebird (Wireless Gamecube controller) that was ntohing but a control stick, the A button and a touch sensative area. This is seriously nothing but a romor as far as a touch screen like thing goes. As for the DS Revolution connectivity, I'm pretty sure that has been confirmed because the revolution will be using wi-fi as well.[/color][/b]

I'll let you know about one reason why I hate nintendo; They never give us any information >_<

[color=\"#FF0000\"][b]Alright Dren, here is my responce to your "reason" for hating Nintendo. First of all, it upsets me, not because it's a reason to hate Nintendo, but it's an incredibly STUPID reason to hate any company. Now, why do I say it's a stupid reason? Well I dunno about you, but I enjoy coming home, all happy and excited about having a new video game system, and wondering to myself, "OMG, I wonder what this will be able to do. I can't wait to find out everything this is capable of." I don't like being told every single detail possible about a new system. I like to figure things out on my own every once in a while. Let me put it in a video game sense. Would you like it if there was a video game that told you the location of each and every single secret, power-up, item, ect. and didn't let you find ANYTHING out on your own? If ya ask me, its kind of.. I dunno... makes the game... boring? And in a way, if they did that with their systems, to me, the system would seem... I dunno... boring?[/b][/color]

Dude...lighten up. Give people their own opinions for once about nintendo. You constantly rant at people who say they don't like Nintendo. By the way, I said it was ONE of the reasons I hate nintendo, I have many others. I also never said I didn't like their Products.....I said I didn't like NINTENDO, not their products they give to the public. Mmkay? Mmkay. /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' /> Once again, lighten up and let people have their own opinions.

[color=\"#FF0000\"][b]I let people have their own oppinoins, Dren, but I should aslo be allowed to have mine, correct? I hat eto rant all the time, but I just get bad vibes from being here and I can name various reasons for it and most of them have nothing to do with Nintendo. But getting back on topic. I know yous aid one of the reasons, and I'm curious as to hear your other "reasons". I don't know why, I jsut am interested in hearing why people hate someone/something (Wow, this sounds familier. Note: So that you people understand why i said this, I just said this exact same thing at an MSN group). Now, I REALLY need you help on this one Dren cause you TOTALLY lost me... but how the heck can you hate a company but not ahte their products? I mean seriously, I'm having trouble comprehending this. If you hate a company, then why buy their products? If you like the products, then how can you hate the company that makes the products? Maybe it's jsut me, but I seriously can't figure this out, and if you say customer support, then it's on!

Side Topic: This reminds me of a T-shirt I saw once that said "I respect your oppinions, I'm just saying they're wrong"[/b][/color]

lol..it's called you don't like how the company handles things and how they do things, but they release nice products in the end.

[color=\"#FF0000\"][b]Care to go into more detail?[/b][/color]

How much more friggen detail do you want? I like nintendo's products but I don't like how their administration is.......Would you like me to tell you specifically WHO I don't like and WHAT products I do like? Gawds.

[color=\"#FF0000\"][b]I ment mroe like what exactly is it about the administration that you don't like, what is it that they do that you don't like, what is it that they don't do that you don't like. That sort of stuff. I mean, you said the admisntration you don't like, well why don't you like them? Did they cheat and beat you at Mario Kart DS or something? come on, give specifics.[/b][/color]

[font=\"Comic Sans Ms\"][size=3][color=\"#3333FF\"]Yea, I My self Would like to know the reasons. Curisioty Can be So Curel /dry.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'<_<\' /> [/font][/size][/color]

lol Tech. Curiosity killed the kitty cat! /ohmy.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':o\' /> Don't be the kitty Tech! /cry.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':(\' /> [list]
[*]They're not releasing any information on (I think) the best looking game consoles I've ever seen.
[/list]That's all I'm saying because you will think up a reason for me not to hate the administration for every reason I give and you will end up calling me stupid for hating them for those reasons. How do I know this? Because if someone says something bad about nintendo, you think it's stupid /happy.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'^_^\' />
