Goldeneye 007 classic controller goes gold

hmmmm I think I'm gonna pre-order this bundle

I'm tired of being sold stuff. I'm more than a target market, and this site is just an arm of the marketing department. canceling my account and deleting the bookmark.

@nickythenewt21 i have the trilogy. and yes, they still suck.

@-Squirrel- the best person to do a remake would be microsoft!!!!! it was a rareware title! i don't expect all the kids to know... but geez. this is going to fail. and before you say it, im no fanboy. i've got all three consoles. but check out the xbox live arcade. Rareware (makeers of goldeneye) have released perfect dark in HD! Banjo Kazooie & Banjo Tooie in HD. they are the guys to bring goldeneye back. them or free radical.

my wii only has two games that i actively play. (once a week?) it was such a waste of money. i've been a loyal ninty fan since the snes. i wont be investing my money in the next console until i see a change of direction. the wii seriously sucks, they sold out for the mass market and i've lost shed loads of respect for them.

why can they still not make a classic wireless controller? Gah

What a fantastic game GE was I loved scoping over the dam and wondering what or when they would open the area up but alas no just so many cool memories on this game....

why are there so many people down this game? i mean should people be happy because the wii don't have alot M rated games let along good shooters! im hoping this game does well so the wii can better fps beside their make another 007 for the 360 and ps3so i dont really see the problem here.

13 minutes to watch the same mission. If Activision wants to hype this game badly, then they would launch more trailers. All we saw was the Golden Gun mission

@m30w_cP The controller is a limited edition specifically for this game, therefore, will most likely not be available on its own, only bundled with the game. $50 for the game + $20 for the controller = $70 bundle. The only reason you would buy it as a bundle is if you want the golden controller. But its the same as if you were buying them seperate anyway. Honestly, if activision wasn't going to go all out and make this game SPECIFICALLY for the purpose of POINT AND SHOOT on the wii, then they should've released a much better version on the Xbox 360 and PS3, or, since they are offering "classic control" option on the Wii version, they should've made a version for the 360 and PS3. Tsk tsk. Does Nintendo still hold some kind of legal bind over the game GoldenEye? Being that it was released only on N64?

FPS on my Wii goes together like peanut butter and anchovies. Strategically, in a time where games are underperforming, sales-wise, isn't it a bad move to release your top-tier FPS on the Wii and NOT on either the PS3 or the 360, the console BUILT around FPS games??

70 bucks??? for what exactly? there had better be a lot more than one game and a 20 dollar stray painted controller

I still have my Goldeneye cartridge. I don't need to pay 70.00 for a game I got over a decade ago.

I've seen worse deals to be sure.

Hmm...That controller does not look that great, in my opinion anyway, although I guess it isn't a bad deal if you want it. I'm still waiting to see what happens with this game, they could make it as awesome as the original, or they could butcher it, but it is still too early to tell. :/

@Johny_47 I don't know why you got so many thumbs down because this does not Iook like the classic controller, not that I care but it just seems people on gamespot are heavily misinformed. All you gotta do is google "n64 controller" to see.

This game looks like a mediocre agent under fire and Nightfire clone with the ability to aim down the sights. I doubt the campaign will be as epic and long as the original. Probably a brief but heavily scripted and flashy campaign like the last few bond games. It looks like the bloodstains that show up on enemies/friends bodies after dumping clips into them has been censored for the remake too. Thank you for Fing over the fans Nintendo. A remake of goldeneye should of been left to RARE. At least we still have Perfect Dark....though I like goldeneye slightly better but it looks as if goldeneye has been murdered.

looks tacky as anything, i will stick with a black one.......

looks like a classic controller with fake gold paint lol.

wonder how crytek uk feel about this.

It's funny how the guy in the video remembers being able to unlock Sean Connery in the original. I wonder if he also remembers being able to jump into the hot tub in E Honda's stage in Street Fighter 2.

@Flint247 YES!!!

Fake hands, fake controller. I want to see the real controller.

This isn't a 'classic' controller, the classic goldeneye controller(for the good old Nintendo 64) had 3 'holding things' coming down(where you hold onto =/) and one analog stick on the middle one, they were fun times. I think Wii developers should stop wasting time with all these kids games and really make an iconic game like Goldeneye was, VARIETY is the 'spice' of life =)

If you're going to make a "classic controller" why not make it similar to the controller used for the real "classic" Goldeneye? With c-buttons and all. For us old school fans? Please?

wow im getting this

We have Perfect Dark HD...the fact that they actually made this game with Golden Eye as a predecessor is going to heighten everyones expectations. I am not saying this game will be bad, I am just saying it will not live up to that much hype. I can see it now: Gamespot gives GoldenEye a 7.5; "Not as memorable as the original, but does a decent job at entertaining fans for a while."

why cant we just have a white wii classic controller pro

That is one tacky looking controller. The black one looks much better.

why not golden zapper or golden wiimote and nunchuck ...

I was already excited for this game, but damn, this just improved it.....

I want this bad :3

Where is the health bar and the body armor? This gameplay doesn't look anything like an N64 Goldeneye deathmatch. I was really really excited about this and now I'm not.

I Miss Goldeneye Looks Good Might Pick Up A Wii For This

well, i liked the call of duty games for the wii, and if this one comes close or better than those games then it will be a good choice!

If it weren't for Daniel Craig, I would so have my wife pick this up for me.

Wow! Looks like it's going to be a disappointment. Not to mention either one of these guys couldn't even remember what levels they used to play from the original. They should of had a true goldeneye expert interview this one.

You'd of course prefer motion controls anyway unless you're completely nuts, but that's still pretty cool.Would be great if you didn't already have a classic controller for sure.

awesome wii version of modern warfare 2, definitely better than the conduit

It looks like they've put a lot of work into the game. I hope that's true.

Is Goldeneye 007 for the wii a direct sequel or a reimagining of the original. This could be a great great if the multiplayer catches on. Nintendo could be more inspired to do more types of games such as this. I kinda like the Gold Classic controller. I have still yet to own Nintendo's 5th console if Goldeneye remake works well. I would buy a Nintendo wii. I loved the original on the Nintendo 64.

@ lamprey263, that's because it's a Wii Classic controller PRO thats painted gold. not the standard classic controller. on amazon you'll notice the controller costs $19, so $69 for the game and the controller is not a good deal, its just a bundle (but you get a gold controller instead of a white one)

I think they just sold me a wii... virtua cop 1 and 2 would really sell me.

thorughfire how in the hell do you blame Nintendo for ruining this classic shooter? For one Nintendo isn't making the new Goldeneye, and two if anyone can have a remake of this classic on their console it would be Nintendo since it originated on their console. Plus the game actually looks pretty great so far. Where is your logic??? I will probably go ahead and buy this bundle since its no more expensive then the game and a standard classic controller pro combined anyway. But I am all about the pointer controls so this golden controller will not be used for Goldeneye.

Nintendo should have remade the N64 controller to work with the Gamecube if they really wanted to be retro.

wow you have to understand that this will be the closest the wii will get to a good online first person shooter. YAY i will be able to use my gamecube controller im soo excited now im not 100% going to sell my wii and buy a ps3

Dang, $69.99! Activision sure is money hungry.
