The idea of having the ability to use the "controller" as the TV as well as, well, the controller, will appeal to some.

what have they got with giving you 2 screens! why would you be looking down and at the TV.
Also that camera is going to give some nice up nose pics while playing a game haha

I think this will be massive, we all laughed at the wii when that was launched and it sold more than the 360 and PS3.
From what I can tell it's essentially a big DS, the controller will have maps, or 3rd person view, while the TV will have the proper view etc...
Also, they've said there's some games where you aim with the controller, you can use the controller as a shield to block attacks etc...
AND, if someone walks in the room and steals the TV, you can transfer the play to the controller and carry on as normal.
All depends on the price, anything over £200 will put people off I reckon.
Saying that, they've got some big gaming companies on board already, so shows they're trying to get back to the proper gamers.

Nintendo don't normally get controller decisions wrong but unless they can bring this in at a low price point I can see Ed being correct.
How many Wii's would have sold at original 360/PS3 prices.
They used PS3 and 360 footage in the keynote because their next gen console should be able to match Sony and MS's efforts from a few years ago.
