They shouldn't have bothered with that mock-up. It's terrible.

It just looks too huge to me (that's what she said). I wasn't meaning the quality of the mock-up was terrible, just the layout. I am 99% sure that it's based on a bad scale anyway since the screen is supposed to be 6" (diagonal, I assume), and that's clearly bigger than 6".

That would be terribly uncomfortable for long play sessions.

It'd be like holding a DS - a very successful, proven, portable console - I don't know many people who complain about the controls, or the feeling of the device in your hands.

Nintendo always has to be resistant to change:

Nintendo’s Next Console Will Enter the HD Era, but Not the Hard Drive Era
Stephen Totilo — Nintendo's Next Console Will Enter the HD Era, but Not the Hard Drive EraThe successor to the Wii will not include a traditional hard-drive but will bear some of the traits of competing high-definition game consoles, according to sources familiar with Nintendo's planned 2012 gaming machine. The console, codenamed Project Café, will include 8 gigabytes of on-board flash-based memory, presumably for game storage. That quantity, while nearly 16 times the storage capacity of the Wii, is smaller than the 20GB of room available in the original, optional hard drives offered in 2005 for the Xbox 360. The amount of memory in the new Nintendo console would also be dwarfed by the 250 GB drives offered in current, high-end versions of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. |
Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
I'd actually prefer that if they support external drives. Not that it really matters unless they change their outlook on game updates, DLC, and a greater emphasis on digital distribution.
Also, I wouldn't at all be surprised to see the controllers have built-in memory for save games (or at least removable media support) so your controller becomes your identity. |
Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
8GB? Finally something to compete with the original Xbox! Nintendo...one step forward, two steps back. This is gonna suck if every little bit leaks out piecemeal. Over analyzing everything will grow tiresome. ;)
Also, I miss the memory card slots in the controllers. It was super handy. Having it built in would be nice, but what happens to your save games if your controller breaks? |
Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
Then go with removable media. They already supported the SD format on the Wii.

Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
8GB? Sigh...
|
Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
8GB? Many PHONES have more memory. :lol: WHAAAAA?
|
Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
Yeah, I'm hoping that's just a rumor because that seems ridiculous, if true.

8GB isn't official, folks.

Why does Nintendo always have to shoot themselves in the foot?
N64 was ready to kick all kinds of ass but then they decided to ditch CDs and stick with cartridges. Sure, it was a decent system, but it had so much more potential. GameCube was a nice system, but they went with smaller discs that held less data, requiring more compression. And the Z button on that controller? Stupid. They just couldn't bring themselves to put a second Z button on the left side. No, they just had to have ONE extra button on the right side. Made it a bitch for companies to port over titles from the PS2. Wii, well, we all know about the Wii. <--------Still waiting for the glory days that we had during SNES... |

EVER!!!!!!!! |
Re: RUMOR - Next Nintendo Console to Be Announced at E3 2011
Close, but no. As mentioned the single z button was awkward, the c-stick was a gimped analog stick and the octagon surrounding the analogs sucked. The bean buttons were 'take it or leave it.' Despite all that, it was probably the most comfortable controller though, and definitely set the standard for wireless.

Hard drives are kind of obsolete technology. If this thing takes SD cards, then we can add and upgrade as much as we need. Look how much Microsoft charged for their hard drives, anyway, no real cost savings over SD media.
