Nintendo?
The Scene It controller is a rip-off of the Sony Buzz controller if anything. They look almost exactly the same.

Voted up for saying "should have" and not "should of," as well as Easter joke.

I was interested in the blue one when i saw it posted here http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2007/07/11/pink-and-blue-controllers-join-white-and-black/
But this blue looks WAY lighter then the blue one posted at 360fanboy. I dont want it if this is the blue colour.

America gets the pink and dark blue controllers. Japan and Europe get those, as well as the light blue controller.

What market are they catering to? Don't forget the hardcore online gamers that put you guys on the map Microsoft. And, no, i don't want more Halo themed stuff.

With the Microsoft Halo 3 press conference last night, I don't think you have anything to worry about. Halo 3, Halo Wars, that Halo short fim, limited edition Halo 3 XBox 360 for the Halo Nation, that comment that Halo is our generation's Star Wars, and then I swear Peter Moore said "Halo Halo Halo Halo Halo Halo" and some kid's head exploded.
Oh wait, you're not into Halo? Sorry, you're fucked.

Che,
Since you're so upset I want to know what style/color of controller would make you happy? Its obviously not the standard white, elite black, kiddie pink and blue, or even Halo-themed. What is it then? Since you are so "hardcore" would you prefer spikes sticking out of your controller? Perhaps a photo of Peter Moore and Major Nelson? Please. I need to know!

I am into Halo (still play the original online on my Mac), but I am painfully aware that it is coming out. The rest of the lineup isn't terribly interesting to me. What the High-Def consoles are really lacking right now are the quirky games that came out on the PS1 and PS2. I got a Wii because most of them seem to be going there, but they could also really benefit from shiny graphics and solid online support. I'm not that interested in the rehashing that's going on now.... Except for Pac Mac CE.

@ Rubang, thanks for making me chuckle at my desk.
@ Travis, sorry my use of the word "Hardcore" got your panties in a bunch.
I just want some decent colors, you know like Nintendo always did starting 11 YEARS AGO. I wouldn't mind the pastel Easterish colors if there where more coming down the pipeline. Hmmm, I dunno, maybe green (it IS an Xbox after all), royal blue, red, shit, I'd take yellow or orange at this point. Release them in limited runs if they have to.
I'm just a little peeved that it's either White/Black or these two horrid looking colors. Maybe I'll bye my little sister one, o wait she has a Wii.
@ Waves - I hear you man, every once in awhile i pick up a real gem on the PS2, a void the original Xbox or the new new Hi-Def systems haven't filled.

Ooh, those look nice. If I had a 360 I'd definitely pick up the pink one to match my beautiful candy pink Japanese import DS.

Actually, Pink is quite popular with the heterosexual male population as it signifies that you are secure enough in your masculinity that you can actually consider pink to be another colour, alongside red, blue and orange, and not something that is only for girls. Believe me, that pink DS Lite? Awesome. Besides, it is only recently that pink came into use as a female colour. Formerly, it was male, as it as seen as being akin to red, and therefore, more powerful. Here is some reading material on the subject: http://www.psychologytoday.com/articles/pto-20070622-000002.xml

i believe the most hardcore gamer controller would inject you with caffeine everytime you pull the right trigger so the more frags you get the more extreme you go!

the bright happy colors clash too much with the dark tones of the thumbstick/thumbpad.

No, but it might please my mom who also happens to be a 360 owner.

Aside from being blatantly ripped off from DS Lite colors, those pastels look absolutely disgusting with the other standard colors on the controller. No thank you.

You're right. I bought a pink DS Lite, but I was a little embarrassed because the cashier said my girlfriend would probably enjoy it.
