This looks like it might be good, might not, but the thing I still don't get about either this spec or the previous one is how the hell are they going to control the thing. The analog stick is at the top, surrounded by the four buttons? So how will you, you know, steer and shoot at the same time?
The reason for the nunchuck is to allow you to press a button and have an analog control for different hands, the way it's done with normal controllers. You get rid of the nunchuck, you have to figure out a way to solve that issue. Really, it's not even that hard to do with this model--if it's held like a gun handle, put buttons along the side for pressing by different fingers with the analog stick at the top for the thumb.
Really, Microsoft continues to show they just don't get the ergonomics involved in physically playing video games. If this model comes out like this, it's going to be just as disastrous as the original XBox controller was for them.
My consoles and the fates they suffered:
Atari 7800 (Sold), Intellivision (Thrown out), Gameboy (Lost), Super Nintendo (Stolen), Super Nintendo (2nd copy) (Thrown out by mother), Nintendo 64 (Still own), Super Nintendo (3rd copy) (Still own), Wii (Sold)
