So is this the new Nintendo System look? What do you think?

I don't get the "looks terrible" "failure" etc. comments. It looks like a box. Like every console ever. It's a piece of plastic. Seriously, you really think there's a major aesthetic difference between the varrying consoles?

Perhaps people are commenting more on the controller than the box. No, scratch that.

People are commenting more on the controller than the box. There, better.

If you mean the controller, we need more touch screen games. Touch screens are an underutilized tech, and poorly at best on the iOS devices because they just try to turn them into controllers. Touch screens with real controls in addition equal better and more interesting use of the touchscreen. Also, I would expect the system is designed for multiple control schemes, since it's Wiimote compatible, so I wouldn't worry about a "control downgrade."

Personally, I'm a graphics whore, and quite comfortable with touchscreens, and dual analogs. Imagine how much less Epic Mickey would have sucked if you had another joystick to actually control your camera. I'm all for the option of not depending on auto-cameras in my games ala the Wiimote when the autocameras fail.
