You make it sound like Nintendo is catering to 3rd parties with the Gamepad at the expense of their own originality.  How?  By giving it analogue sticks and shoulder buttons?  Those are two things that Nintendo themselves pioneered on console controllers, and the industry is all the better for it.

Should Nintendo have left traditional buttons off of the 3DS altogether? 

How? By making the Wii a thing of the past. Having Wiimote/Nunchuk 2.0 as the standard controller and the Pro Controller optionally (basically the same as it was on the Wii) would have been the way to go.

The 3DS is an evolution of the DS in terms of control inputs, so nothing really out of the ordinary here.

I know I'm late to the party, but.... You're wrong Rol. Wii-motes 2.0 would NOT have been the way to go for Nintendo. Core gamers (the kind that buys the most SW) has never been too fond of waving their arms around. THey'd much rather sit on their fat asses and get even fatter. And the casuals have moved on to smart phones. Motion controls 2.0 wouldn't have captured the imagination like Wii did back in 2006.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
