the Internet buzzes on the Nintendo Revolution controller: select quotes


Thanks to the unveiling of the Nintendo Revolution controller last night, the internet has been cracked in half with tons of commentary on how Revolutionary the controller is. Video game journalist/comic writer, Kieron Gillens says that "If you don’t like the Revolution controller, you are fundamentally part of the problem and killing the fucking art form.". Strong words. Nintendo, was obviously pleased with how it turned out. Third party developers, whose support has waned from Nintendo's products in the current generation have been consistently impressed with the contoller. The usual parties aside, my favourite commentary on the Revolution controller comes from Insert Credit, whose snark makes me laugh. My favourite quotes from their Revolution discussion
"Nintendo has captured my heart and shifted my paradigms."
"Campbell: "Snake! You must turn the controller upside down!""
"Thus, 9/15/05 will be known has the day everyone on the internet whined, a lot."
"Well it's certainly no HD-Era revolution."
