If you think about it people our favorite series make take a downfall do to the fact that the Revolutions controller is extremely clunky...do we honestly know if it will last long enough to make a Zelda game for it? and if so how long would it take to download these games? if worse comes to worse you may see the next new zelda game on a PS3 or X-Box360....people...the revolution may kill our good old reliable nintendo series...and it may remove meteroid which is also a Nintendo classic and survivor.Zelda and Meteroid are Nintendos workhorses because they are loved..but can nintendo make a system that would loose the workhorses to someone else?....Sony is already trying to buy Meteroid and Microsoft wants Zelda ot be its work horse for Mythical Rpg adventurers...are we about to see the downfall of a legacy? I pray not.

Nintendo wouldn't sell their best franchises to anyone. Even if they do go the way of Sega (blasphemy!) and only make third-party games, they wouldn't sell the rights to there characters. Besides, I like the new controller design because of it's unique features. You see, the controller will have tilt sensors inside of it that allow you to get more into the game. Imagine this (this is just my idea): You're playing Zelda and you encounter an enemy. You zoom in to first person mode and you swing your controller while Link almost perfectly mimics your moves. You slash, he slashes. You thrust, he stabs, etc. Straying from Zleda for a moment, imagine you're plaing an FPS and you're uncertain what's around a corner. Simply tilt your controller a little to peek around the corner. Of course, I imagine there would be a way to turn this feature off on the main menu, also. Another unique feature would be the ability to plugin various devices into the bottom of the controller such as an analog stick or a gun peripheal(sp?).

Here are some pictures of what this might look like:

@Dargon: Your dad is right.
@RpG: But who the hell wants to pay for the attachments anyways when they could get a controller with the basics already and i have seen and touched the controller and its extremely clunky and carppy. Everything about this controller is just not right its like taking 30 steps back. Its like the controller was a reject for atari in some sense and now they decided to use it for the Revloution. They should have it to where you can use your Gamecube controller aswell because these controllers are s**t. You cant do much with it and the tilt thing is bad i mean what if u pause game and set it on table then it falls off and unpauses itself and its hanging from table swaying side to side.your screwed! =Besides it will be hard as hell to do button combos or anything on a stick controller that was proven with the regular nintendos wirless version of the NES controller.

But there's where your wrong. You will be able to use the Gamecube controller. Learn something about the system you're ranting about before you start the rant. This forum is to discuss the Legend of Zelda, not flame Nintendo because of their unique designs. Please do not make any more threads like this. *locked*
