i think all that video did was prove how retarded the controler is.

95% of the time i play games it's becuase i'm home not feeling well, or if i'm tired---

don't get me wrong, i think Wii is going to have it's moments, but personally i can't see someone lifting their hands up every time they want to catch a ball in madden or the like... it's just not feasible.

i think that this controler would have been a nice add-on controler, but for what it is, ii'm not impressed

oh tell me about it. god forbid you'd ever have to move your arm. you know what else is retarded? manual transmissions. i can't see someone moving their hand AND pressing down with their foot every time they want to change gears.

if you're not feeling well or extremely tired, i can see you not wanting to use the wiimote. but how many gamers only game when they're sick or tired? probably only one :chuckles:

honestly that video wasn't great. you didn't get to see much usage of the wiimote at all. this one is much better:

:rofl: at the quicktime video link

:edit:

my wrist would kill after doing that for over an hour.
:edit2:

and i'm trying to do the same motions he is but i can't do it, i look like a freaking retard. i dont have the motor skills to spin my right wrist like that. i think it's an overly excessive system. i really do.
:edit3:
so i figured it out and i don't feel like a retard anymore, but i still think the things an idiotic design.

you know those ideas you had in 3rd grade to make a videogame system that you had wetdreams over then you realized you were crazy? this is it.
:Edit4:
ok, so i think the idea is growing on me, now i feel like a fag.

480p looks fine on a computer monitor... but not all HDTVs are good at upscaling 480p to 720p/1080i
