There's been talk even here about how the new system from Nintendo, officially named Wii, has some potential problems.
One of the main things, is people are complaining that games may require to much movement, and be tiring, or if you just want to plop down and play a game, you can't because it requires movement, and therefore you can't just sit back and relax.
I came home last night from a small gathering of friends, and in the state I was in, I was thinking about if I had a Wii. I was thinking about how great it would be playing all those cool games, and then I realized something: Because of the state I was in, I wouldn't really be in the mood to play say Madden 2007 where just about everything requires movement on my part. I would just want to play with a "normal" two handed controller and relax for a bit.
Then it hit me, not only is there the VC to satisfy this need, with the help of the classic controller, but Nintendo has already said they'll be developing new games that use the classic controller and not the Freehand (lol remember that name?) controller.
So the whole point of this is, Thank you Nintendo, for thinking of everything, and quite possibly making the closest thing to a perfect console, we have ever seen.
