I know that on Revolution you will be able to play GCN games using GCN controllers.  What I want to know is, what will be used to play NES, SNES and N64 games? I do not believe that we will be able to use actual NES, SNES or N64 controllers, since the Revolution does not seem to have any outlets for those controllers.  As I said in my previous post, I wouldn't want to use my old NES, SNES and N64 controllers even if there were outlets for them, since my old controllers for those systems (especiially N64) are worn out.  The Revolution remote seems suitable to play NES games, but not SNES or N64 games.  The GCN controller seems almost suitable to play SNES and N64 games (though for those games I would prefer digital L and R buttons that don't hurt your fingers, as well as four digital C buttons instead of an analog C stick).

Did you specifically hear that we will be able to play SNES and N64 games using the GCN controllers?

No, but even if you can't you can probably just buy an adapter for it.

I'm fairly sure we WON'T be able to use the old controllers (except maybe the GCN controllers), and I wouldn't want to, anyway.  All my old controllers are worn-out.  And I DON'T want to use the separate joystick to play SNES games.  I want to use a D-pad, and I want to use a single controller held with both hands, the way SNES games were meant to be played.

Well I'm absolutly sure you are partially wrong because they said you could use Gamecube controllers on X-Play. What are you spazing out about anyway? That was way too much of a rant to understand.

Well I never found SMK that much fun, but yeah, there was a type of poison mushroom.

See there are a couple types of poison mushrooms, there are my favorite, the purple ones with the skull on them, the mario kart ones, which were kind of a strange addition to the game, and in SSBM there is the posion mushroom which is the way it is so that you don't know what type of mushroom it is. Also there are some other variations in other less popular games.

Also, in Mario Kart you kind of have to name the items yourself, I just always called that a shrinking shroom. Plus it wasn't in any of the other games.

My opinion? I hate both of those games...

I never thought Tony Hawk off of the console was any good.

And GSH felt really weird when I played it.

Heh...guess I'm a bit late.

Well, my real name is Joey, and my nick name is Game Over. The poison mushroom is my logo. I have the shirt, belt buckle, wristbands, a hoodie and fitted hat that I made using the poison mushroom patch, and I'm planning on getting a fabric made to have pants.

Also, I love Mario Kart (ironic being that there was no poison mushroom in any Mario Kart), and the game that everyone knows...Super Mario Bros.

My favorite Mario characters are Luigi, Dry Bones, the Shy Guys, and even though they aren't really characters I like Bullet Bills.

Cool! The little button on the left's orange for some reason... It used to be white. It still works, but I don't think it's supposed to be orange.

You wouldn't have to get all of them if they didn't add so much stuff every time!
SMK-MK64: 3D, Up n' down courses
MK64-MKSC: Portability.
MKSC-MKDD: Two characters at once
MKDD-MKDS: Wifi.

Can you say MKDDDS Plus?

Portable Online Mario Kart with Two Characters and More Characters and Tracks.

I would be able to die happy if they did that for DS.

Here is how I would score it:

Graphics - PSP
Game play - DS
Realism - PSP
Sound - PSP (Barely, the sound is about equal, and both are loud as hell))
Other than gaming capabilities - Nobody, the magazine just added this one to even it out, why would you buy a system for the extras? (Besides, I have a video I-Pod.)
Highest system sales - DS (Can't change the facts...)
Highest game sales - DS (^Ditto^)
Screen quality - DS (I give it to them because if you look at the DS from the side you can't see, I friggin hate people that hover)
Durability/Life expectancy - DS (The PSP does a crapload of stuff)
Sports Games - PSP
2D Games - DS (I still like having some of those advance feel games)
Shooters - PSP (Gotta give it to PSP, Battlefront, GTA, and a 007 game!? That is awesome...)
Puzzle/Strategy Games - DS (Some great puzzle games came out for the DS because of the touchscreen ability, I think PSP had two or three that sucked.)
Platformers - DS (Oh god...the list goes on and on and on and on...Princess Peach, Sonic, Mario, another mario coming out soon, Veiwtiful Joe...)
Fighting Games - PSP (Man, I love the fighters out right now for PSP)
Least Ammount of Worthless Games - DS ([Curse] PSP! So many pool and casino games, don't yuo know those suck? I can buy the same quality game on my cell phone...)
RPGs - Draw (Only like 3 RPGs have come out for each system, while FF VII is coming out on the PSP, the DS has Castlevania)
Racing Games - DS (This can be argued about a lot, you may choose PSP if you like quality, but both systems almost have the same games, except for Mario Kart and Crash Bandicoot)
Systems - DS (There are at least 10 different colors of the DS worldwide, for PSP you could get either Black or White)
Style - Draw (It's up to you, personally if I'm trying to look cool I'll carry around a Micro, it's about the size of a good digital camera)
Matching Accesories - PSP (I think everything looks very nice, headphones, cases, etc.)
Cost - DS (Sorry, I don't want to make the DS look perfect, but it does have the better price.)
Overall - I really can't choose your system for you overall, if you are poor, yet you could afford twenty bucks once in a while and you don't mind carrying around a bunch of disks get the PSP, but if you can afford $430 instead of $300 and then $20 once in a while, then I recommend the DS. One point for each...
PSP - 8
DS -  13
