SuperChunk's further N6 controller analysis

[ilovetogame]

i actually do agree with what you are saying here. if you could just turn on the console and play a game on the controller or watch netflix or watch a blu ray or dvd or whatever (if the system will allow movies to be played) while someone else is using the tv that would be pretty awesome. you could play touch games like on current phones, or virtual console games, or gamecube games or standard controller project cafe games, including playing 4 player games without even needing a tv. that would indeed be incredible.

still though, not advancing the motion technology of the wii would be a pretty bad idea. i mean the motion plus is good but it is in no way good enough motion tech to hold out for a whole other generation. i'm sure the other two next gen systems will have much better motion controls than wii motionplus. i mentioned, in i think your other thread, that the ideal controller would be advanced motion tech where you can combine the two motion controllers to form a starndard controller so there is no need to have 4 motion controllers for each hand plus 4 standard controllers.

But seeing as how these hd screens on controllers rumors are so persistent i'm guessing they are true. so what about if you had advanced motion controllers, a step up from the motion plus, in both the lefthanded and righthanded controllers plus IR pointers in both as well and there was a slot on the inside face of each controller where this HD screen would plug into so when it is connected in thats your "standard" controller! That way you have advanced motion controllers ready for a much better generation of motion control games, plus a standard controller, plus the HD (touch?)screen in the middle so that you can do all the things you suggested in your post superchunk, but its all in one controller!

granted it would be an expensive controller. but from what i've read the wiimote costs like $6 to produce or something crazy like that, so they have insane profit margins on the current motion tech. They could probably just sell this advanced motion/standard/HD touchscreen controller for like $60 at maybe a slight loss but then make it up with the price of the project Cafe system. I mean if Project Cafe is only a few times powerful than the ps360 it could reasonable sell with one controller for a small profit at a fall 2012 launch for $250. but $350 would be reasonable if they included a WiiSports like game plus extra to cover the expensive cost of the controllers. then by the time Project Cafe had to deal with the other next gen consoles the controller should be profitable as well as the system costing less to make so they could easily drop the price down to $300 if the other consoles launch at $400
