Revolution Controller Finally Revealed News Story From 1UP.com

1up.com has a story where the Nintendo Revolution Controller is finally revealed.
Uh, I’m not sure hey. Look at that pic hey. I think it looks a bit dorky.
But it’s an awesome idea, but I’m not sure it’s going to be best for a next-gen console.
Gamers are used to holding a controller in two hands, opposing thumbs holding analog thumb sticks, index fingers pushing shoulder buttons… Having a new and strange controller as the standard controller for the console would be a big adjustment, and I’m not sure it’d be well accepted. The games would need to cater for it properly.
One saving grace is that apparently the Nintendo Revolution will have space for your normal Nintendo Gamecube controllers. Odd that. I’m not going to hold my breath over any of the next-gen consoles, as it will take me a couple of years to actually buy one, at the prices they’re likely to be released at.
Oh well, we’ll wait and see.
