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!

How dare you say that!!!

If it wasnt for the opinionated, ill considered and oft needlessly stateted discussions occuring within the Prime forums, wherein in-depth, though provicking discussion is ignored, mindless chat is ridiculled, and only the most populist, shallow, SUN inspired topics is ever taken seriously, we would be forced to experience another ice age!

Only this time it would be names Bob!

And why do we complained at for chatting in these Forum posts, there isn't really much to discuss, and that was from a regular, people need to think more carefully about where they are posting their topics, not just Newbie, but regulars and Notables alike!!

Never!!!

I was replying to the original question in the correct and proper manner...

Not in the garish and childish manner in which you randomly express your Tellitubby-esq opinions...
