Place your bets now on what features the controller will have using this handy cut-out-and-keep guide!

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/blog/26516

If you weren't already excited about the Nintendo press conference, I thought I'd help you out by adding a little fun competition to the proceedings!

Below, I've made a printable cut-out-and-keep checklist of all the features the controller might have, also leaving three spaces to add your own ideas.

Before June 7th, post your answers in the talkback thread below, after the conference I'll confirm the correct answers with the other NWR staff members and check back and see who got the most correct answers. (15 being the maximum)

In the event of a tie we will select a winner by random. The prize will bragging rights on the forum for sometime, but I'll also throw in a nice little Nintendo Gachpon toy from my collection!

Any posts marked as being edited will be discounted, so make sure it's your final answer before hitting the post button! (one entry per person)

Good luck, see you back here after the megatons have hit!

Could you make a new post with just your answer for the number of triggers (don't modify your original post).
My bad, I should have clarified I wanted a number not a Y/N. (now fixed)
Cheers!

Bman87301 · « **Reply #9 on:** June 03, 2011, 11:59:31 AM »

Just to clarify, I believe there will be a standard Wii-style remote (up to four), as well as a separate auxiliary control device. Unless stated otherwise, these predictions are for the standard controller.

Face buttons: 11
D-pad: Y
Dual analog sticks: N-- just one on the remote itself, a second may be add via a nunchuk attachment
Rumble: Y
Screen: N
Camera: Y-- for tracking, not for taking pictures
Speaker: Y
Triggers: 2-- two more may be add via a nunchuk attachment
I.R: N-- will be replaced by camera tracking
Microphone: N
Rechargeable battery: Y
Motion sensors: Y
My idea: will also feature an auxiliary control device with 6" touch screen as well as its own buttons and dual analog sticks/sliders
My idea: auxiliary device will allow for the option of wirelessly diverting the content to its screen, to free up the TV and/or allowing portable playability around the house (within wireless range of the console)
My idea: auxiliary device will have varying functions-- being able to function as a secondary input method (such as a keyboard, or writing tablet), or as a DS-styled secondary view screen

Face buttons: 11

Just to clarify, this count excluded the POWER button. Counting the POWER button, the total would be 12.

I'm so Confident that I already made my Winning Sheet.

I honestly don't know why the extra space got introduced to the original URL but it's fixed.

I just wanted to point out that i think it will have a controller dock/charge stand to hold the controller upright so you can view the screen while not holding the controller.

edit: and 3 points for me already?

Holy crap! Assuming this is right, I'm eerily dead on so far.

This article more or less describes my idea of the auxiliary controller exactly... It's a damn shame that part is only going to be worth three points for me. Let's just hope I got the remote prediction right... that's where all the points are.

this was pretty much the same as your idea right?

If that's the case I hope that (3)DS(i) hook up for additional controllers is supported because that controller ain't gonna be cheap.

BlkPaladin · « **Reply #19 on:** June 03, 2011, 04:03:43 PM »

Face buttons: (numerical answer) 7 (4 action buttons, +, - , home)
D-pad: Yes
Dual analogue sticks: Yes
Rumble: Yes
Screen: Yes
Camera: Yes
Speaker: Yes - to maintain backward compatibility with the Wii games that actually used it, and so it can be used as a gaming device.
Triggers: (numerical answer) 2 at the end of each rumored handles
I.R: No, it will use the camera in place of the IR/sensor the Wii used.
Microphone: Yes
Rechargeable battery: Yes - Kind of cheating with the article that was just recently put up.
Motion sensors: Yes - again with the backward compatibility

My idea: It will be able to used as a portable game-player, like a souped up DC VMU. (It will have the DS chipset reduced similarly to the way the GBA chipset was reduced on the DS/DS Lites. This will also help run the touchscreen)

My idea: The system will support 3DS/DSi connectivity easily because of the last idea.

My idea: The controller will cost at most $80US. (This is based off of an estimate that one manufacture made when the first rumors of the controller came to light.)

LOL!

Looks like you guys are really getting serious with this competition! :-)

There is some strategy involved now...should you wait a couple more days to see if there are any more leaks/confirmations or go ahead and make your predictions now.
Leave it too long however and it could be too late!
