multiplayer

I'd like one...

PSP owners get Every Extend Extra and Lumines II while
we get..... Meteos: Disney Edition. great

A martial arts MMORPG set in the Ming Dynasty? Sounds awesome. I hope it'll be free to play though.

Nobody is claiming Nintendo invented these things.
What liteweight is trying to say is that without Nintendo taking risks to implement new ways of control, we wouldn't have the "pspads" and "xboxpads" today.

Nintendo was the first to introduce an analog stick for 3D gaming and it became a huge success which made Sony redesign their PS1 controller to include the analog stick for their system. Same thing happend with the d-pad, rumble feature, shoulder buttons, etc. Most likely, we'll see it happen again where Sony and Microsoft will copy Nintendo's gimmicky touch screen and revmote for their new gaming systems.

Shigeru Miyamoto and his team behind The Legend of
Zelda should really make an adventure game for this series.

^You just helped prove his statement about gutter mouthed illiterate 13 year olds on XBL.

Definitly a good read as his post is very well researched and thought out.
Here are all the quotes that I believe support his theory:

Satoru Iwata -

"When you turn on Revolution and see the graphics, you will say 'wow!'" "Our competitors have detailed the power of their core processor and display. But the advantages of our technology will also have no bearing on gameplay. I know, this is one of those mysterious comments."

"We invented the current way a console is played - in front of a television and holding a controller - but maybe that image will change."

"Work on Revolution is well underway. When you see it you will be excited because you will experience a gaming revolution."

Shigeru Miyamoto -

"I think maybe if I could do anything, I would make it so you don't have to sit in front of a TV and play. If you could have a machine that you just plugged in and played inside a virtual world that - would be just great."

"It's convenient to make games that are played on TVs," Miyamoto is quoted as saying. "But I always wanted to have a custom-sized screen that wasn't the typical four-cornered cathode-ray-tube TV. I've always thought that games would eventually break free of the confines of a TV screen to fill an entire room. But I would rather not say anything more about that."

"Sitting in front of your monitor with a controller, there's really nowhere to go from that paradigm, all you can do is make it prettier and faster," he says.

"What Nintendo wants to do is to open up that road, create something that goes beyond."

"Nintendo is always trying to be on the forefront of control innovations, like the analog stick, rumble or wireless. As soon as these are available, our competitors snatch them up. Because the user interface is going to drive the Revolution software design, that's what's going to make our software stand out. Nobody else is going to be able to do what we do with next-generation game software. So, I can't reveal anything. It's under wraps because it's the big gun."

Microsoft rushed the Xbox 360, and the result is a poorly tested product.

This can be said for any console really. So this isn't anything special we haven't seen before.
