Bad pic, sorry. Here's the side view.

So with the analog stick, you're gonna be able to control fps/time crisis-like stuff in an all new way

Oh yeah...that would be ace....that Project Hacker looks nice but Uplink would be fantastic...if ever a game was perfect for the DS it's Uplink as there's so little text input involved.

Is that classic controller final now? Having to connect it via a lead to the wii-mote is just rubbish. I much preferred IGN's design...

I've seen both a wireless as a wired version, so I am not sure...

With Star Fox Command swooping to Japanese retail next month, Famitsu has revealed a few more details about the interstellar pest's DS debut - including the fact that it will support an optional rumble pack cartridge.

The rumble pack, as those of you with heads and eyes may recall, came bundled with the Metroid Prime Hunters and Pinball titles in the US, and also works with Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time and Warioware Twisted. If you've got one, Star Fox will give you another excuse to dust it off.

Aside from that, you'll find yourself zooming around 30 stages according to the Famitsu report (partly translated by GameSpot), featuring deserts, oceans and caves as well as the deep black of space.

Star Fox Command is due out on August 3rd in Japan and August 28th in the US, although there's no confirmed European date for it yet. As well as rumbling, it will also take advantage of Nintendo's Wi-Fi Connection service for four-player battles, while those of you who prefer to go up against people within ad-hoc distance can opt for eight-player battles.

Conclusion wrote:All in all, we could feel nothing but positive from our ninety minutes with Nintendo's new console. There really is nothing like it on the market, and as if to testify to this, watching two gasping be-suited forty-something executives duke it out on Tennis really was a sight to behold. Maybe there IS something in Nintendo's 'New Gen' slant, after all.

It's a good thing the name of the thread is Official Nintendo Fanboy Smugness & Gloating Thread because I'm really starting to get excited about this machine. [/fanboy]

Seems odd there is no "Official Sony Fanboy Smugness & Gloating Thread"

I'm guessing that's because no-one would bother contributing to it.

The PS3 comes pre-hyped and doesn't need fanboys making things up.

Exactly. Who needs hype when you have the fourth dimension!
