I understand Nintendo's stand on this and they have every reason to never release anything onto the iphone especially their main franchises that work best with physical buttons! The game designers at nintendo are probably not interested in making games without any use of physical buttons.

@taodon: Hah! Very well said.

@Gyaruson 2.0: I'd have to agree. The PS2 controller is still stuck in the 2D era with the analog sticks on the bottom where my thumbs feel awkward stretched down to use them. Play Mario 64 with the dualshock, it would never work. Now play it with the N64 controller or even the xbox controller and it feels just…

@artiofab: We started to reduced our whale oil consumption only when the Standard Oil company began selling a cheaper alternative to the marketplace, NOT when whale oil was overpriced to a point where it was impossible to buy and everyone was forced to either go cold turkey and lower their consumption or purchase…

@Shinta: That your solution? Or should we import a larger percentage of our oil from foreign nations?

@MrGOH: A lot of executives in the U.S. like Steve Jobs (correct me if I'm wrong) get a $1 a year salary but own massive amounts of shares in their company and get huge bonuses, which end up paying for their lifestyle. I'm assuming this is used as a similar payment plan Nintendo has with Miyamoto and its other valued…

If they have very high requirements for the GPU, seeing as they won't allow a WP7 upgrade to the HD2, this could have the capabilities for some high-quality first-party games by Microsoft. Right now the two Kin phones have powerful GPUs that could be later used for gaming, which sounds odd right now but they've stated…

I for one never liked the Song of storms and tried to avoid it every time I heard it in Ocarina of Time. Every other song was great and brings back a lot of memories even if it was just midi music, but not this one.

@se7a7n7: You're not installing android, just booting it up from the SD card, where it is installed. So no, this does not void your warranty.

They should make polyurethane replicas of this and mass produce it! I'm sure they can mimic the crystal effect enough where it would be hard to determine the difference from the real thing, and it does not have to be polyurethane. Then at least it can be affordable to the millionaires and not just the…

@legendnthemaking: That Chevy (owned by General Motors) is long gone. Today we have a company that is owned by the U.S. government and makes cheap imitations of their fuel-efficient Japanese counterparts in the name of fighting "global warming" and pleasing the car czar, if one exists. Same goes toward Chrysler, now…

Remember this?

@Uiru: You really have to be drinking the Sony kool-aid to actually believe Sony sold 7 times as many PS2's as the Gamecube within the last generation.

@Who wants toast?: @Who wants toast?: "First look at the most likely path Nintendo will take with the 'Wii 2': something about as powerful as the 360/PS3, possibly even less, with probably pretty much the same motion controls as the current Wii, only improved to be somewhat more accurate. "

I'm very sure the hardware costs to manufacture the Kinect are very little, and Microsoft is going to make profit in that respect. Microsoft wagered the most cash on development of the software put into Kinect, which justifies the $150 price tag.

This article has appropriately summed up the sad state of Sony. It will be hard for them to sell the Move when it offers very little to consumers for such a high price tag. Meanwhile you have the Wii which has 4 years of game titles available, and Kinect, something that offers a totally new way of playing games far…

@Tiller: I hope they build more on that part where Sonic is carved out a path by the player and then goes at super sonic speeds. I absolutely love to watch Sonic go at insane speeds, but having to control him for a long period of time while going that quickly becomes frustrating when our reaction times are only…

@N-Robes: It probably said that in the manual because I was never aware. I regretfully never read any manuals like most kids. Now I love manuals and read everything in them, even when it was more necessary back then than it is today.

It looks like this will not be a sequel to Twilight Princess, which I was hoping for based on what was rumored and what Miyamoto and Aonuma said prior to E3.

@pan1da7: D-pad on the bottom, analog stick on the top please. A second analog stick on the other side would be great too.
