ah okay! I watched the video for it, and I have to honestly say I may be slightly interested! BUT just slightly interested don't be getting any ideas into your heads.
pretty kool idea, im sure a few ppl dont like the new control, but that happens all the time, when nintendo first came out with the D pad for the nes im sure a few ppl didnt like it but soon after ppl tried it out they loved it. look back at what everyone used to play with Ataris 2 button and joystick controller woooooooooo glad nintendo came around .
do I think nintendo will survive : of course.. I'm pretty sure the age group they aim for far outnumbers the type of age group that thrives off of "Mature" games.. plus they just have such a nice vivid outlook on some of the wierder genres.. and I believe their controller will compliment that even more than the stylus complimented the DS
How should they do things differently that they did with the gamecube : Hmm... they should try to lessen the amount of hardware they release, and focus more on bolstering their gaming libarary.. cube had all that "link GBA to cube cable" and "Modem/broadband adapter" .. and the memory cards were just stupid.. you get like a (#) blocks memory card.. and you find out that 1 game doesnt take just 1 block.. they take like 10 blocks or 4.. or 6.. that whole aspect annoyed me very much
so u nintendo fans finnally admitted that nintendo sucked...refering to gamecube....after its totally disappointing show on the cube, u think its going to steal the next generation console wars???wrong. nintendo is not competing (in terms of hardware atleast)
"nintendo is not competing (in terms of hardware atleast)"
What a dumb thing to say. Nintendo hasn't released any specs for it so how would you know. I remember GC was also being pre-eliminated from the hardware war last generation and look at RE4 now.

nintendo said their hardware is equal to the other 2 parties participating in the 'console wars' .. noones gonna put something out without up-to-date graphics...
For Revolution to be successful it's absolutely essential that they get decent third party games for the system. Their last two systems have almost entirely been made noteworthy simply because of first party titles (especially the gamecube, which had like 1 extremely good third party title). If they don't do this the system won't be able to compete, they won't be able to rely on Zelda, Mario and Metroid forever.

well for one thing, in Gamepro's June 2005(#201) on page 60, it shows E3 Hit List, Xbox 360 PS3 and Revolution with a note that says " nitnendo has said it will not compete with PS3 and Xbox 360 in terms of hardware, so you can expect mid level graphical performance and a significantly lower price point."
The specs aren't out. That is all i'm saying about that. And i was just mentioning RE4 to point out how GC can handle good graphics. I could have easily mentioned some other game.

RE4 is the best in terms of graphics for GC games unfortunately. I have always liked the PS and X-box graphics better. The thing people forget is that the kind of games Nintendo puts out are not meant to be graphic games.
