@halo117xbox Halo gripes aside, the controller for the xbox is an obvious bastardization of the Nintendo and Sony Controllers. In fact Microsoft couldn't even create their own button labels. "Oh I see, the A is over her while the B is right here! This is a new controller design!" Keep in mind that this mimicry is acceptable seeing as how the SNES controller was near perfect and Sony has been using their controller design since 1997. My point is the companies take turns mimicking each other ,Nintendo being the most original, because it is the only way to stay alive.

Nintendo looked better than I thought they would. Has an actual price been listed for console and or tablet controller yet?

@translucent17 I understand what you're saying but at the same time Microsoft and Sony lost a lot of money pushing those systems. And it's only a couple years now through various contract adjustments and overhauls of the systems technology can they sell for a profit.

I agree with Brendan, author of the article, and his message in this article. However I still get upset when I hear about a game that has DLC on the disc. My impression was that DLC and Expansion packs were designed to breath new life into an old game or push the game's engine to a new high. Rather it was designed after taking in the good and bad from the original game. DLC should not be on the disc. There are many many reasons why. And yes if the companies took DLC off the disc I as a consumer would feel better about buying a game. However I don't buy games that have DLC and expansions on launch day, and neither should anyone else.
