There'll be videos.  And don't worry, Swift, Gamespot's videos are 56k friendly.

NO REMOTE CONTROLLER!

...unless it's a controller that LOOKS like a controller and acts as a universal remote, too.  That'd be the Batch!

Turn it sideways.  There, instant NES controller.  Plus there's going to be shell controllers for it.  

Besides, the remote is a secksy tool for gaming.  Do some research on it like I did.  You'll be pleasently surprised.

They're streaming videos.  Much like the cartoons here at TPH.

That controller will rock Byte, just because you played with a remote on a crappy satillite doesn't mean all might Nintendo will fail.

Read.


Can't.

School blocked out all gaming sites.  Pricks.

Had to see it on Wikpedia.  It looks like a tool for syphoning off gas from a car!*shot*

Urgh. I always wait about a year before going out and buying a new console. Ya know, it gets crazy during the first few days.
