Popular Post gizmo1990 Posted July 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 27, 2016 @Rev My version of your post. NES: Better than rivals, dawn of a new era. Perfectly suited to the times. SNES: Great robust design. Excellent controllers for the new console age. N64: Truly inspired controller, well made. GameCube: Great, both console and controller. Wii: Brilliant, functional. Fantastic controllers. Wii U: Pedestrian but functional. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's got a decent screen in it that'd make it expensive enough already, they're not going to be doing that and high power. Begs the question though, why the delay? Could be software, could be the newer chip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything else has been massively flawed. NES: Better than rivals, but not particularly interesting. SNES: Good, although simple. N64: Weird. Almost good, but actually a bit rubbish and broke constantly. GameCube: Super amaze. Would be better with two proper analogue sticks and two bumpers, mind. Wii: Bit shit, especially connecting everything to the remote. Pro controller a bit shit, but workable. Wii U: Unbelievably appalling. Pro controller possibly the worst official controller ever and still better than the Gamepad. Is Rev short for revisionist? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PopeSmokesDope Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 err what? NES was huge everywhere appart from here it seems, massive step up from the Atari's etc SNES was superb! Came out after the Megadrive but the MOde 7 stuff and audio chips blew EVERYTHING away, from memory the sprite stuff cause slow down (Super star wars iirc) but it looked amazin!

A handheld delivering PS4/X1 levels of power. I'd imagine they'll use the current chip otherwise it's going to have a battery life of about 30 minutes isn't it?

freezycold Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 It could be a scalable design, low power consumption when running on the battery and ramping up when connected to the power supply/dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So mainline titles Zelda 2, BOOW or OOT are as much spin offs to the same degree as Koei Tecmo collaboration Hyrule (Destiny) Warriors?

Popular Post DeNeo Posted July 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 27, 2016 I created a mock-up based on the Eurogamer report yesterday. I quite like the idea of magnetic Wii-style controllers that attach to the screen portion, with the L, R and Z buttons as triggers on the back. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it'll have to be smaller than that, but it looks about right. Nintendo's WiiU prototype is actually a lot like that: http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/wiiu/nintendo-land/0/0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and it had the correct number of buttons for SFII (the 6 button controller notwithstanding - which I recall being really hard to find). Also it looked better on the SNES. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
