One advantage of the new controller is that it not only is fun, it looks fun. When you play with an old-style controller, you look like a loser, a blank-eyed joystick fondler. But when you're jumping around and shaking your hulamaker, everybody's having a good time.

Nintendo--a company that is, for better or for worse, addicted to risk taking--

After Warioware, we play scenes from the upcoming Legend of Zelda title, Twilight Princess, a moody, dark (by Nintendo's Disneyesque standards) fantasy adventure. Now I'm Errol Flynn, sword fighting with the controller, then aiming a bow and arrow, then using it as a fishing rod, reeling in a stubborn virtual fish.

Who the hell is Errol Flynn?

[edit] nevermind, turns out he's some old actor guy who did a lot of swordfighting iin his movies.[/edit]

The race is not to him who hulas fastest, it's to him who looks hottest doing it.
