Well we all know that more information has yet to be released about the Revolution, and after something like the controller being shown I really wouldn't be surprised by anything anymore.
So, if you could wish for one thing for the Revolution to be revealed, what would it be?
Mine would be a NES/SNES/N64 all-in-one card reader. That'd be awesome.

Ya, then they could call it the toaster.
I want eight controllers to be usable at once, on the one console. Rather than four. So that four people could play, with two in each hand.
Man.

There are times in the Revolution controller video (such as the drummer) where this is shown! It would be great for music games, duel-wielding in FPS etc... It could happen!!
I definitely read a quote from someone high up at Nintendo that I saw on some respectable website that basically said no, four controllers at one time would be the max on the rev. No four players controlling two remote-things each, I'm afraid. Two players controlling two each is perfectly doable though.
I'd dig up the quote but frankly, I can't be arsed.

PPU, and not an ATI one, im not convinced a graphics card can get the job done well as true dedicated hardware

ds interactivity would do for me. a FF:CC style would be great.

I was just watching a video showing off the co-op mode in PDZ on the 360. I was very impressed, but I thought what could be better than that? a 4 player wi-fi co-op mode. I'm not sure whether it's been done in an FPS before, but I would like it if one of the supposed FPS games for the Revolution had this kind of feature.

yeah that would be pretty good to have a co-op mode on a fps. the revelution has really got me excited. i can't wait for it to be released.

Like Mike-zim said, some interactivity between the DS and Revo, not like GBA-GC which did virtually nothing at all.

I think some original peripherals would do me. Like a water jet that squirts you in the face when you get hurt!
Honestly though, I'm quite happy. I just wish people (the public) would start listening to the developers (apart from Mark Rein) and realise that the Rev is innovative and fun and has backing and that the other systems are same old dame old.
I mean great, you can either have a specialised PC or a tricked out BluRay player as the other two options. Yawn....

A game like Trespasser would be amazing on REvolution. The game is so perfect for the revolution controller.

I want a very good 1st person shooter, because I think that if done right, it would make Halo and Perfect Dark Zero, seem like something from the past, with its past gen controls. Fngah!

Now that you mention DS connectivity, I remember it was said about a few months ago, that you would be able to download demos to your DS from Revolution, but unfortunately, I can't remember what site reported it. I think it was IGN og something.
Anyway, what I would really like to see on Revolution is a FPS like F.E.A.R. Something with lots of action, scary moments, and nice graphics.

I'm not sure if your making fun of me (calling me a dits or something...I'm black and live no where near the beach buddy), or making fun of yourself. It was a stupid comment all around.
Anyway, DS-REV connectivity has already been confirmed. They didn't tell us anything else (as usual). I'm sure downloading REV VC games to your DS is in the works (the obvious use of the connection), so I wouldn't worry.
As for my wish? So many things are already coming true that making a wish at this point would seem...well, pointless. However, I'll still join in the fun and say RE5.
Imagine walking around in a pitch black environment with only a flash light (controlled via the REV). It would be like the part where your ashley except MUCH more immersive. Add a couple zombies or bats (basically something to startle you) and it could quite possibily be the scarest game to date.
With better, faster, more precise aiming, the bosses could be crazy intimadating but still beatable. Imagine driving a humvee, chasing down a beast of a bird with a gatlin gun. Your aim with gun would have to be almost perfect. The dragon/bird would swoop by and grab the top of the humvee. You have to act quickly and slice it's talons off. You can also control the humvee (albeit restricted). Quickly moving your hand left or right will cause the humvee to swerve. This is good for DODGING FIREBALLS!
Anyway, the game has endless potential. It would be a shame if not made.

uh. the way that i read the article was that nintendo had something else that was intuitive to reveal. not just a:
"hey guess what, #Game X# is coming out and it uses the controller like this..."
no offence guys, but you are looking in the wrong direction. a revelation is a tad more important than a new game coming out.
"So even though we've already shown you the basics on Revolution," Harrison concluded, "you can be sure that there are still a few more surprises we're holding for a later date... We'll be eager to hear what you have to say and think you'll be pleased with what's in store around the corner!
for those that were excited by the 'revolutionary controller' (pardon the pun), im sure that there is a lot more in store to be revealed at a later date, that not even we can comprehend.
i mean cmon!!! if the controller was the first wave of goodness to be released, surely whats left is gonna be awesome!
think outside the box people.

I would like to see a massive presentation of developer support. Far more than Nintendo has ever had, for any console! That would be most important if names such as Tecmo, Rockstar, Gearbox, Epic, etc, etc were confirmed. We are going in a brave new direction for gaming and total support from all types of developers would be appreciated.

Having just completed Metal Gear Solid Twin Snakes on the Cube (of which I'm thrilled about by the awy) - I had a thought about the entire Codec system overhual for the Revolution. Imagine a future installment of the franchise on the Rev (or one like it) where the player is communicated to by NPC's within the gaming envorinment ala "The Colonel". But instead of the gaming screen suddenly changing to an "in-game" Codec interface - all info actually gets wirelessly send to the DS upon which it would ring similar to a mobile phone. Thus ensuing a waste of game screen realistate on our main TV screen and allowing the user to interact in a more indepth manner with the info coming through. This idea of device connectivity could also be used to present additional channel info/communcation from other human players over the WiFi network.
it just struck me that Microsoft and Sony seem hellbent on making their next gen systems the heart of the living room by ensuring their peripheral devices are interconnected - whereas Nintendo's previous attempts at this have met with limited success ie GC - GBA (additional maps and hints).
I even thought of a crime FPS style game (not unlike the new Condemed on X-Box 360) whereby you navigate/shoot/jump etc via the unique controller set-up on the Rev - but when it comes to inputting phone numbers, cracking codes and communicating with NPC's and other intimate stuff like that then you could use your DS as an extention of the gameplay environment.
Imagine tracking a killer through a game that contacts you at ramdom via your DS! - Freaky Man - Just Freaky!
Anyway thats my two cents - or two P - as I'm a UK resident! :)

A Love note to the creative team behind the eventual Rogue Squadron 4 Revolution...
The Scene: Bespin Carbon Freezing Chamber.
Steam rising all around, mchinery whirring and lights flickering as electricity pulses through their cores.
"The Force is with you young Skywalker......" echoes an eerie mechanical voice
"but you are not a Jedi yet..."
The sound of Mechanized Breathing envelopes all around you.
Rev batton in Hand you navigate up the stairwell with the directional nunchuck and are confronted with the fearfull image of Darth Vader Dark Lord of the Sith.
With a flick of the underside "Trigger" button you ignite your saberblade - poised ready for battle.
As the battle progresses you defty lunge, parry and deflect strikes through your motion activated Rev batton.
Now this is how on foot sections of Rogue Squadron games should be...
To all Sony fanboys "I feel the hate swealing in you now - give in to your anger - buy a Revoluition!"
Seriously ... don't hate me - I'm a multi-system gamer and I hope a PS3 won't cost too much caus I can't wait to play MGS4 either.

I havent read all the replies so this may have been covered already but id like to see some of the old co-op games taken online, like Contra. Games that simple should be a piece of cake to bring online.
And a simplified friend code system would be nice

X-Box Live please. If not then a very good rip-off of it. If not that then a much improved version.
Just not half-assed online play please.
