We know better than you nintendo, furreal. I'm shocked that it seems like the minority that thinks it's good that nintendo is doing what nintendo does... be willing to let them surprise you, jesus. i mean have people really considered the track record of the company here, or how it has changed the face of vidya games time and time again? People are hating on concepts from the company that is known for them. Even better when the concept is mostly speculation by gaming journals. Don't believe me? Nintendo is more close lipped than apple and we get better and more innovative things than the nintendo ipad (don't freak out ihards, i'm not making this about apple, it's just an analogy).
Most of Nintendo's innovation is more annoying than anything. Motion control as a whole was completely pomegranate and not any more fun or boundary-pushing than using a controller. The touch screen, while neat, is not that good a feature. Especially when games like Zelda PH and ST are entirely dependent on its use; that is really fucking obnoxious. I'm okay with it for like... puzzles in games. I will give them credit for the dual screens though because it HAS changed the way handheld games are played. Even the 3D (so far) has been nothing more than a literal eye sore, though it has potential so I can't count it out yet.
In any event, most of what Nintendo does to push boundaries is commendable in theory but just doesn't work well in practice. When Nintendo has a recent history of UNCOMFORTABLE GAMING what is there to look forward to, really?
