"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.

I really really don't agree with you. ToS was good but it never really held my attention like BK did. The story, the overworld, I just felt like I'd seen it all before. I think the atmosphere (and the music) of BK really drew me in, and I thought that the combat was absolutely fantastic, and one of the best turn based systems I've ever come accross. I really hope they make a sequel or something.

I am pinning all my hopes on Revolution.

I'm barely playing games now. I've only got Baten Kaitos to occupy my time right now, and even that doesn't totally absorb me. It's great, but T.O.S is so, so much better. If the Revolution doesn't excite me, I will actaully give gaming up there and then. Zelda is the only thing I really want - oh, and there are still a few DS games, but that's it. Games are really in a slump right now.

Music is my thang now - just got a new guitar and amp. Woo :D

As do I. There's only so many times I can complete Resi Evil 4.

Gutted with gaming right now. X-box 360 is offering nothing REALLY new than what the current generation offers.

I hope Nintendo inspire me again because I've lost hope. Zelda... then what?

I hope Perfect Dark 0 is inspirational.

*'Shatters' gerrid's face*

It's true that the second controller design is genius.

Much love for the second image. Not holding my breath waiting to find out what the end result is going to be however, will be purchasing the new Xbox and having Ninty's offering as my backup console at my girlfriends house unless they really pull something out of the bag

Of course, the mere fact that they'd suck would definitely be enough to stop ninty using touch screens on a consle...

Aha, those idiot Yanks.

I CBA to explain quite how useless and rubbish a touch screen and / or anything relating to gyroscopes would be again. But they would be, so there.

They've already said its not gonna be a touch screen. I wouldn't mind wheel shoulder buttons though.
