Ambidextrous Link?

[Nate the Great]

Um, the controller issue is usually addressed at the start of any game. Remember having to listen to Navi shout "Listen!" a zillion times to "learn" how to talk to someone in the distance and so forth?

I don't necessarily go for the zillion button controller, but very few games use all of them. Basically it's to give the game designer a multitute of options.

To address the issues in the articles:

If you mistake the name of one console with another, you're just an idiot. Even parents of small children (a possible new market for the Revolution) would know what the disk and disk case looks like for the system that they have. Mistaking an XBox for a Gamecube and vice-versa? Who does that?

Revolution is not corny. It might be lame and unimaginative, but it's not corny.

Agreement with the sentiment that posting a website to justify the name smacks of desperate panicked PR people.

Amazement that people think that any press=good press, using the controversy to increase consumer awareness of the product.

"Revolution" threatening to nongamers? How?

Why would Nintendo not want the name of a video game console to sound like the name of a video game console?

Oh, and whether or not the name "Nintendo" is part of the title, we're gonna use it. Just like you don't technically need the Sony in Playstation. Plus with Wii I'd have to include Nintendo just to avoid the toilet jokes. "I'm going to play with the Wii." "I'm going to play the Nintendo Wii." Etc.
