i, for one, will def be waitin around the net til 2am arrives. :-)

obviously im hopin that the controller is class and the system is cheap etc etc. but im just glad that they are finally revealing the console!
it will get the discussions goin again bout the console and generate interest in actually buyin the console, and not just leavin ppl guessin whether it'll have gyro or not.

roll on friday mornin!

Knowing me I will.

I'm betting for a controller that allows for gyroscopic movements and a trackball (maybe).

But I also believe that these are not essential and that normal games will also be developed for it.

I believe it will allow for some original/new concepts and game ideas but also allow for the old ones. I also hope Nintendo have found a way to get the maximum graphic potential with minimum cost and effort.

But the latter thing I'm just being a little too hopeful.

In the end I believe it'll be like the DS. Not as graphically good as its competitor but much cheaper and with original concepts being drafted from a changed interface. But also, like the DS, the system will allow for traditional games to be played as the new interface is a nice new option and not a requirment.

Most probably.

I'm not a morning person.

What site would be immediately updated after such an announcement?

do you think it could be a little visor that tracks eye and head movement?

That'll make the multiformat conversions easier...

Perfect, you've even got Ninty's support, looky:

Iwata says, "There are too many buttons and sticks on controllers for novice players."

... so we'll get rid of them all!
