@grove12345 @Sakarnen Fair enough, I suppose the gamecube microphone or the wii-mini come to mind. Even then there's a difference between limited use, not functioning properly, and hurting your eyes.
While I do think that the the tablet idea was stupid, I personally can't say anything since I haven't yet tried the console. What I can say though, is that their advertising campaign is awful. Remember when the wii came out in 2006? EVERYONE wanted one - the folks doing marketing did their job right and created a storm. Now with the U, it just sort of appeared quietly without notice.
(1. Remove all ridiculously flamboyant characters. I didn't mind the few crazies in OOT, but once you have every shopkeeper/questgiver/main villain in Skyward Sword have big eyes, crazy hair, and erratic hand gestures, it all starts to get silly. (2. Either have a full voice cast (which is overdue) or have it be completely silent - grunts and yelps really take away from the mood.
Neither of these two really affect gameplay that much, but in my opinion, Skyward Sword suffered stylistically because of them.
@4r0d0 When Interplay died, they took the rights to Descent with them to the grave. Volition wanted to make D4 when they signed with THQ, but they couldn't tie it in with the previous games, so it became Red Faction.
Now that THQ is dead, I think the only IP that Volition has the rights for is Saints Row - maybe Red Faction. Which is a shame because I really want Summoner 3.
