"Revolution controller revealed!"

At nearly 25 percent, it seems most readers who took the poll believe the Revolution will incorporate a DS-like touch screen. And while Nintendo has gone on record stating the DS offers a glimpse as to what to expect from the Revolution, it has also said the "revolutionary" aspect of the system will not be a DS-like dual screen controller.

From IGNcube. hahaha those stupid Americans. But what do you expect, it's IGN. Anyway, here's the results in full:

Trackball - 4.2% - 648 votes
Squishy feel - 4.5% - 704 votes
Gyroscope - 12.8% - 1974 votes
Brain wave control - 11.6% - 1802 votes
Touch screen - 24.6% - 3790 votes
Wheel - 0.7% - 111 votes
Glove form - 4.6% - 714 votes
Reconfigurable layout - 12.8% - 985 votes
No buttons - 7.0% - 1083 votes
Nothing - 16.8% - 2595 votes

I swear people are so stupid. "wheel". But seriously, anyway, Nintendo harp on about how their new controller will be so simple to use that no one will be scared of it, so why do people keep suggesting stupidly non-simple ideas like Reconfigurable layout or Trackball? I'm betting it's like the Gametrac.

Here are some official images!!

I hope I got your hopes up and dashed them into the ground, shattering them into a thousand tiny pieces with my title.

The overworld in Tales is awful, though. And I prefer the art of Katos.

Yeah, the overworld in Tales is a little weak graphically and it seems a tad bland, but at least its got freedom. A downfall in Kaitos is that it is pretty linear, with no side quests at all - Tales has all these directions, and you could just go and something else whenever you want.

Words can't describe how much I hate the characters in Kaitos. Honestly, I really don't care what happens to them. And that is the biggest downfall, because the game is void of any attachment and emotion. In Tales, you are with them through and through, and they all have decent personalities, humour and interesting skits. Kaitos characterisation is so one dimensional, it hurts.

I stoped playing Baiten Kaitos because i couldent stand the characters, the combat system is fun at 1st, but ultimately it feels like going back to the pre-rendered games of the PS1 era.

Heh, it made the presentation all the better.

"Mr. Iwata, I finally know how to use Powerpoint!"

Baiten Kaitos and Tales of Symphonia are both fantastic.

They sure are.
