Talking 'Bout A Revolution
Now that the weekend has passed, folks from all over have had their chance to speak up about the revolution behind the Revolution. Hugh Williams writes "The blokes at Next Generation decided to ask a bunch of game designers, media and analysts what they thought about Nintendo's new Revolution Controller. Some were a little skeptical. Others were downright in love." Additionally, Heartless Gamer writes "Heartless Gamer blog has initial comments up regarding the Revolution controller, but more importantly comments on the various reactions around the internet regarding the controller." Finally, LATRINE! writes "Whether you like it or not, the Nintendo Revolution is on the way. Brittlefish has an article discussing some of the challenges Nintendo will face in gaining acceptance in the market."
Chief Gaming Officer at Sun Microsystems? That's got to be one cushy number. Sign me up for that.
Then again, I suppose crappy Java games for mobile devices don't just write themselves! :-)
That's what I'm gonna do too. I'm gonna put up a flyer on my campus bulletin board offering 40 or 50 dollars plus more for games/extra controllers once the 360 comes out. I'm planning on using wording like this:
"Need money for drugs, alcohol, prostitutes, or gas? Sell that old, outdated XBOX your parents bought you!"
Hey, I indirectly got a GBA from a girl who wanted drinking money. Best $10.00 I ever spent.

Actually, lawsuit is just one word.
Unless, perhaps, you were refering to some sort of suit, made of law. Like a "law jacket" and some "law pants".
What would you wear under yout law pants? Legal briefs?
Speaking of correlating words to definitions, it's "hear hear."

An interesting innovation for the "small handed" segment of the market. Hopefully a larger version will be available for the larger hand endowed audience that is likely to be more carpal tunnel prone.
I know he was getting at ergonomics, but, when you start to read this quote next to this picture it just sounds creepy. Something tells me this guy drives a H2.
"Sure, this is nice for guys with small units, but what about us guys with huge trouser snakes?"
I swear PowerPoint is going to be the downfall of higher education in western society.
More or less. Nintendo has already won this round of the console wars: every Star Wars fan will buy this system, because when the Star Wars game that lets you fight with lightsabers comes out for the Revolution, our living rooms are all going to look like this: this guy
I actually agree with the parent. In America, nothing is your fault. That's why we have informative signs like "Do not immerse in water" on your television. And my personal favorite, on my last television "do not attempt to eat or consume."
Cuz you know, sometimes you just gotta grab a bite.
-- I have fans? Wow.
