A few days back my brain reported on the Gamecubes controller, saying that the controller will now have four shoulder buttons.

Well, he was wrong, and he's now busy paying his informant a "little visit"... according to him, anyway.

But he did give me this to tell you.

(Opps. Sorry. But there may be something else. Shigsy has already told us that the Gamecube controller we saw at Spaceworld was not the final one. So what could be changed?)

(There is a RUMOUR... which I'll have to say from now on, that the controller has a built in memory. So what? I hear you cry...)

(Your controller could be your own personal one, and could have your stats on say... PD2 on it. That way, you wouldn't have to bother bringing your memory pack over everytime you wanted to record the scores.)

(As I said though, this is unconfirmed...)

(People have been coming up to me in the past few days. "Brain?" They'll say. "What?" I would say...)

("Why do the pictures of Rogue 2 look so jaggy?")

(And I'll say "Wait for the videos.")

(That's all for today. Brain out.)

The central 'A' button on the right hand side of the controller was always round, and a lot larger that the surrounding 'X' 'Y' and 'B', kindey shaped buttons.

I still think they should use the N64 Start Button.

I'll say it again.

The Gamecube controller has THREE shoulder buttons.

But...

The a button is now round, instead of kidney shaped, and the start button is smaller. Still more to come.

I thought they ahd those didi memory cards. But an inbuilt memeory card wouldn't just be inovative it'll mean buying a GC with a controller will have built in rumble, memory and has an excellent feel.

Just one more thing though does the GBA have an inbuilt memory card? will you have to switch controllers if you use the GBA as one? I see problems in this idea.
