Nintendo's Reggielution Continues Apace

Gorf writes "Nintendo's now famous Reggie Fils-Aime had a presentation at the Ziff Davis Games Summit where he discussed the upcoming Nintendo DS. The full transcript is available on Ziff Davis' games web site 1UP.com." Reggie's immortal first lines? "Hello, my name is Reggie...and I'm addicted to my Blackberry. In fact, to me it's a 'Crackberry.'" 1UP is also running a related story indicating "Nintendo's DS handheld will likely see release in North America before Thanksgiving weekend, according to several sources at the [same] summit", though it's argued: "Less confidence is evident when it comes to Nintendo's ability to deliver a fleshed-out software lineup at that point, however."

I think the GameCube has, far and away, the best console controller ever. So...nyah.

The problem is just that cross-platform designers fail to utilize it properly. If their game doesn't work as well on another platform, their options areto release it anyway, or change it to make it work. I suppose they just choose the former.

Unless, of couse, your idea of a good platform is one that's identical to all the others, I don't see how you can have a problem.
