Im sorry.

A bunch of the reactions here are specifically from people who have found the clickystick experience to be awkward or uncomfortable on their other systems. So yes, they did own 360s/PS3s.
It's likely that they're just giving their personal opinion of the experience instead of specifically analyzing how it would affect Nintendo's financials. Some people are weird like that.
Hey, do both the PS3 and Xbox 360 controllers do the analog face button thing? I remember that the PS2 (I think) did it long ago, but I haven't heard people waxing on it any time in the last couple years at all.

Super Moon coming I want Majora's Mask in HD now
Don't be.
I'm waiting to see if Nintendo puts their own Nintendo-ey flavor on clickable sticks before jumping to a judgement. There hasn't been a controller of theirs yet that I've hated, so benefit of the doubt and all that jazz..

PS3 does it, but no one uses it. Don't think 360 does.

Awesome, good to know.
Pikmin is all I need! Ok not all I need, but it would be enough for launch for me.

hmmm u present good argument here , the reason why I dont want them is that if Nintendo chose to bring them then they would feel "pressured" to just map something to them just cuz its there ,,,, but I guess there might be no harm in adding them.
I think a better solution of "running" in generic games is to have more sensitive thumb sticks ,,, like what Kid Icarus has right now (although the circle pad caused me to fall off edges sometimes cuz it feels a bit resistive to move)
Not so sure on that. I'm kinda skeptical of Nintendo's ability to convince western developers. But think we'll possibly see fairly good porting rates in the first half of the generation..

I don't think we have to worry about nintendo doing something they don't want to do, they rarely do for better or for worse.
On the bright side it makes devs that much happier. And people like me.
It's not that they're blameless, it's just made out like the third-parties carried way more of the burden. It's the way it's argued, that when every shortcoming that Nintendo had is brought up, someone shoots back that it should have just been overcome by some roundabout method by the third-parties.
I don't see what the big deal is in any case, I don't see much love for big third-party games, in fact I see many just ripping on them for their tropes.

Was going through some of the newly published Nintendo patent applications and bumped into the "new" gun-shell design.
At first glance it seemed only the shell's design changed but then I noticed the "built-in nunhuck"...... with what it seems an extra button!?
Old?

You hit a big ol' nerve of big truth right there. I find it very, very funny that we make a big deal about getting support of big-name, headliner games - and then so many of us say something like "..but I don't really care for that type of game. Nintendo just needs it so that they do well!"
But is there new info or something? Where?

that's because whining is always the loudest. There are TONS of 3rd party games that were some of the best games this generation, bar none. Some being better than most of Nintendo's output imo.

That looks hideous and I would be terrified the Upad wouldn't be stable and would fall off.

Seems to not contain a wiimote anymore either.
The 'button' may be a replacement camera sensor but I dunno. Strange place for a button though.
Edit: oh, you're talking about below the control stick, I see. Guess it's to replace the lack of B-trigger.

Nice! But what the hell happened to the trigger in front? It even looked analog!
Seems like it will be more than just a plastic shell this time. It has to add the IR camera for pointing, since the DRC lacks one.
Edit: Also seems the "nunchuck" part only has one shoulder button. That would explain the extra face button on it.

I've occasionally wondered about analog sticks that you could hook your thumb into for movement in all directions, but the implementations I've thought of have generally seemed, in my mind, to be flimsy and easily breakable. Also people have different-sized thumbs.

Sorry, that was a reflex.
He's ruining tradition.
Subtitles go all the way back to when the first thread was born.
Since its never been done, than not having a subtitle is as good as having one no?
Hehe, that is pretty much it. We all like to think of ourselves as armchair analysts, which is fun of course, but also sort of makes us very clinical about our hobby.
Anyways that's my contrarian argument for the day.

And that patent.... I don't know if I'd be able to trust that to hold the pad sturdy when I'm flicking that around. A bit top-heavy.

I love that term.. "clinical." Very appropo.
And knowing my clutzy ass, I'd have the pad flung across the room within fifteen minutes of playing with that thing. Scary. And expensive.

I would get this if Crytek made that sniper demo into a real thing and made a bundle with this,,,,
yaaah Nintendo dont be throwing some stage from Zelda and packaging them with this would get me to buy it >.<*
That's the only reason I own the current Wii Zapper. Link's Shooting Gallery. So sad.
(and I still hate that tomb level late in the game. So difficult!)

IdeaMan, now that someone else has said they're in, had you heard anything about clicky sticks?

Just out of curiosity, how many posts does a WUST thread reaches before moving to another thread ?
Never seen such a vociferous community as here in neogaf x___x

That would be the worst design decision ever. "Oh, you wanted a gun trigger for this gun peripheral? Too bad, here's a tiny button you need to take your thumb off the analogue to press."

yeah I'm curious if that was part of the info he was saving
Now that I think about it... I should patent my idea.

Didn't he say that it wasn't a hardware feature?
(I honestly don't remember -- my memory is pretty crap)
edit: Wow, two solid bits of news in only four hours of the thread's existence.
I'm sorry, but Nintendo does not comment on rumors or speculation.
(which means that to them, these threads don't exist!)
