They need someone to help with online. Either Google or Valve would be good choices.artwalknoon said:

Yay, scroll wheel!
And yes, the screen would work fine as a third or fourth button, the only downside is shunning fighting game fans.

Nintendo consoles have never had clickable sticks.

Bluetooth? I don't think you could push all the visual info over it. Wi-Fi can be used for local connections and it would definitely be able to handle the load.

i'm trying to think of a good use of clickable sticks.

well we know it's a home console. it can't be a true portable because of the 3DS. at the most, you'll take it around the house. but not outside

so i think it's safe to say we can get rid of the clicky sticks.

I just hope Nintendo puts a second analog instead of another "C-stick" and the d-pad needs to be better than the Cube's was.
Still, the Cube's controller is my favourite ever.

I'd rather they just release SS this year, then start working on a Wii2 Zelda that comes out in 2013. At least then we'll see what a current gen Zelda is like, before 720/PS4 come out and render Wii2's hardware outdated too.apana said:
Besides, SS being on Wii2 implies that it uses the same type of motion control, which would be unfortunate.

I liked it and can see it working. I'm just worried about that bit snapping off if I grip the controller too hard.

if nintendo adhered to a controller model not unlike the classic controller pro, i have to think there would be a lot of disappointed people. am i wrong in saying that?

Nintendo consoles have never had 6" touchscreens in their controller or HD video output either. They should put real analogue sticks on the controller, and at this stage going with non-clickable sticks is just being obtuse since every other platform has them. Even if they don't think they're strictly necessary, more options for control is not a bad thing, especially an "invisible" button that won't intimidate casuals who probably won't even notice it's there.
Oh and the stick should not do that frustrating as shit thing that all Nintendo analogue sticks do where if you boot the system/game holding it in one direction, it thinks that direction is "neutral". I have no idea why Nintendo sticks still do this.

Best controller of all-time?
Well it would be if it was stand-alone... and y/x were concave.

plex said:Hey guys, I think I've come up with an idea how to combine the dualsticks aspect with the tablet-concept.
Not really sure if this has been suggested before, but here it is:
The tablet would recognize the rotation and auto-adjust the orientation of the screen, just like the iPad does.

assigning important or even mildly useful movements to clickable sticks is a pain in the ass and should be discouraged by any means necessary.

agree with you. classic controller for classic games. i like the way games like GALAXY and PRIME 3 play with a wii remote/nunchuk.

Looks good and seems like something that could be what Project Cafe is about, but why rotate it in tablet-only mode? Seems like it would cause less confusion just to keep it the same orientation.
Edit- Or have the Wiimote on the right side to begin with.

It's fine. Knifing in CoD is simple with it, although I prefer it to be relegated to secondary functions like bringing up the map in ME2. It can make sense like in Demon's souls where it controls camera locks and the right stick is the "camera/targeting" stick.
In a perfect world every game would have customizable controls.

Agreed on both points, but stick clicks are a special kind of ass, especially for zooming/crouching.beelzebozo said:

Indeed. I still need to buy one of these bad boys. Rocking the original Classic Controller.goomba said:

I think this design is more likely than the CCPro + Screen designs we've seen floating around, especially if the 6" size is accurate. It'll be interesting to see how Nintendo approaches it.
Probability aside, the drawing itself is nice.

Alien Coded DNA said:This is pretty much my thoughts as well. If I'm able to play Nintendo games (Zelda, Mario, Smash Bros etc) and COD (TES, FF, Fallout, GTA etc) and the like on the same console, it will be like a dream come true.
Man hell yeah, that's all I want. And depending how different the controllers are, if they even are, I would love to see the 3rd party games have extra content for them compared to the other consoles. Wishful thinking here though.

Well, on the Wii they were renamed to + and - which made more sense.

I would replace Start with "Menu" and Select with "Pause." Have both actions be consistent between all games on your platform.

Select has already been renamed to "Back" and "-." Both of which make as little sense as Select.

Discomurf said:sure... here is version 2
Two X buttons is the "big reveal" the sources were alluding to :O
In the Wii OS they are "move forward a page/channel" and "move back a page/channel".

this , "back" "select" "-" all don't make sense neither does "start" or "+" really.

Actually Valve would be quite likely so long as the system would support the games that they want to make. Nintendo is still relatively lenient with third-parties who use their online and Valve is a respected developer that's talented in a genre that Nintendo lacks. Nintendo would likely be okay with Valve using Steamworks for their own games like Sony is, so long as Nintendo gets the games.
