Revolution?

Earlier this week at the Tokyo Game Show, Nintendo unveiled their new controller for their next generation system (The Revolution). The controller was ment to look like a TV remote in order to appeal to a broader audience. It's got tilt and light reflecting functions so you can drag items on your tv... kinda like a laser pointer / mouse. Nintendo is also planning on providing access to their back catalog of games (NES & N64) via broadband. If you notice the controller could easily be flipped sideways and would work like the old school ones. Also check out the trailer for Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. If you've ever played a metal gear game for PlayStation you know how cinematic they are. With the power of the PS3 this game looks ridiculous. This 8 minute long trailer is in Japanese with english subtitles, but the graphics will blow you away. It's been a few weeks since I've posted something on video games so now you know...
