Every time Nintendo release a console, there's always somehting special about it's controller. Ninty introduced the D-pad, shoulder buttons rumble packs (Analogue sticks were first present on the Saturn :). So what next?

Well, a few months ago Niny patented/copywrited the names "Tilt pack", "motion pack" and a few others. So what does this mean? Will there be the chance of Ninty allowing full 3D movement in games? MAybe you could navigate forwards backwards left and right by tilting the controller, openate horizontal position with the analogue stick, and then be left with lots of free buttons! That would be the perfect interface for a NiGHTS sequal if ever I saw one :).

How about being about to tilt the gun upwards and downwards in PD 2 by tilting the controller (and maybe holding downa button at the same time), rather than using the up and down "C buttons". I know that it would improve my acuracy infinitely if implemented well!

The possibilities are endless!

Sonic it should be in the Nintendo Forum then, some people really don't care what they are doing with their controller!! But I bet most Nintendo fans might be interested, but there definately isn't much to discuss about it!!

"Are they, cool. Well see ya!!"

WEll, u haven't read the topic...
it was about what Ninty could be thinking of when it patented the tilt pack etc, and what else they could do with their controllers..

It's cool Bonus, understood mate.

I just, personally having relatives that are Jewish, find this sort of topic matter...distasteful to say the least.

But hey, nobody was serious and I get that.

Ok, I know this is a joke, but let's drop the Nazi chat for a while.

Or ever.
