Please, may the first or third be nowhere near the actual controller. The second isn't that bad, but could use some non-xbox360 looks

Id say that pretty much every single fake Ive seen in this past moths is a horrible idea for a controller.

Those don't even make any sense. They've taken the simplicity route a little too far...you need more than two face buttons and two shoulder buttons to play a lot of SNES games... how the hell would you controll any future games that way? I'm okay with simple...but I'm not okay with stupid.

Balls! Sega! um... Something I don't know how to hold! (seriously, do you press the buttons with your thumb and use your index finger for the stick or what?)

Ya, those really don't make any sense. I mean to give an educated guess about something, it would make sense to actually use what is known as fact in your hypothesis.
One simple fact nulls every single one of those....It will play all past generation games. The only game I can see those playing is Super Monkey Ball. 1 game out of the several hundreds, and it wasn't even developed by Nintendo.
IGN....are you a complete moron?

Nintendball? Well just like a bowling ball you are going need several different sizes depending on the size of your hand. I can imagine it now:
Person A: Hey you want to come over and play Super Smash Bros. on my Nintnedo Revolution? Person B: Sure! A: So...what size bowling ball do you use? B: What? A: You know, just out of curiousity. B: ...Maybe I'll just go play Xbox 360 at Person C's place.
And so Person A loses another friend to that arrogant Person C because of his video game controller.

It almost seems as if IGN is trying to sabatoge(sp?) the Rev by killing people's interest with their horrid designs. . .

I could care less what IGN comes up with. I will only make an opinion when nintendo releases a design

I'd use that Nintendoball and throw some sense into IGN editors.

The ball is cool but impractical, the second controller looked like hell... they could've at least put a couple more buttons on the face and made it an SNES wavebird with a trackball. The third controller looked very incomplete. Much cooler (though probably no more practical) would be to double the third controller and have one in each hand with different features

jasonditz...your on the right track.
Doubling the thrid mock-up for each hand would have some excellent pros that can only be beat by Virtual Reality.

In retrospect, this thread is hilarious. IGN is always made out to be completely horrible on these boards.

i remember when they predicted the gamecube controller....next gen...we just have to look to them..and then try to look at each design from a nintendo style functionalist view

I miss those mock-ups. It was always so fun to see new ones every week.
