Rev impressions from un-named source
April 21st, 2006
DailyGame wanted to give us some insight and details on the Nintendo Revolution controller, but they havent been able to get their hands on one. Instead of scrapping the idea, they have gotten an interview with someone from leading publisher that is hard at work on a Revo game. Check out the interview below. Answers are in bold.
Theres a lot of talk leading up to E3. What are you most excited about at E3 this year?
Anonymous Source: Thats tricky, because we all know so much more will be revealed at the actual show. With that said, Im excited to see more about Enemy Territory, Crysis, Ubisofts Project Assassin, the PS3 Ratchet and Clank, Zelda, but am most eager to check out the slate of Revolution titles.
Yeah, Revolution is up there on our list too, although more from a curiosity standpoint than an excited one.
Nope, be excited. What Nintendos doing with their controller is as important as the analog stick or mouse were. I love what Ive played with so far.
Sounds like youre just drinking their Kool-Aid

(Kool-Aid = Entwicklungsunterstützung)
I dont get their Kool-Aid, I just know I like what Ive played. If the first-gen stuff is this fun, I cant wait to see what else people come up with. If were looking at the equivalent right now on the Revolution of what Nights, Mario 64 or Ape Escape started in terms of analog control
.
Its really that amazing, huh? Do you think it will lose some people, or is it going to be universally accepted?
Well first, I must say I agree with Nintendos recent silence. People really just need to come into contact with it to understand it. Im sure Reggie and Iwata could talk and talk, but people really need to just use it. And releasing screenshots side by side with photos of what people are doing with the controller, like you saw in the Red Steel article, is great because the screenshots alone dont give you the same context.
As far as the Revolution being universally accepted, Im sure youll have a lot of people who choose not to try [the controller] and write it off. But I think in general, people are going to love it, and I think new people are going to love it
. Its a much easier experience for someone who doesnt know games to learn a game with it.
So if they write it off its probably because they didnt try it, then? Thats a pretty rousing endorsement on your end.
Thats why I cant wait to try everyone elses stuff. Ive tried some early stuff, and it sounds kind of silly, but the fact that youre sort of moving with what you see on the screen, it tricks your brain a little more, giving you a better feeling of speed/immersion, etc.
Youre not suddenly going to think youre having that Peter Moore lucid dream, but sometimes your brain lets you get tricked better, and you get a slightly new sensation in a game context.
