Getting a controller like the Revo's would actually be kinda cool if u think about it.

"Nintendo Gives Away Revolution Controllers
Prior to system's launch, Club Nintendo members get a very special prize.
by Anoop Gantayat

November 23, 2005 - Last year, Nintendo rewarded Platinum status Club Nintendo members with an awesome bonus item: a gold-colored two-inch tall Mario figure housed in a display that sported a commemorative "Touch DS!" plate. We assumed this gift couldn't be topped. Nintendo has proven us wrong.

This year's Platinum prize, announced today, is a television remote control that just happens to look identical to the Revolution controller. The controller will have the exact shape and size of the Revolution controller, but will operate a television rather than Revolution games.

In addition to the controller, Platinum members will get a year 2006 original wall calendar featuring the likeness of Kirby, Nintendogs, Mario and Zelda. Gold members will get just the calendar. The calendar will ship in December with the controller promised prior to the Revolution's release (which the site lists as taking place some time in fiscal 2006).

Both items can be seen at Nintendo's website.

This offer applies only to Japan, where Nintendo's Club Nintendo rewards program has a particularly nifty set of prizes, from special character-based GameCube controllers to Zelda poster sets. To qualify for the two special goods announced today, Club Nintendo members need to have reached Platinum or Gold status between 10/1/2004 and 9/30/2005. Both ranks require the purchase of an extraordinary number of games -- perhaps more than what it would take to obtain the items at auction."

Nice prize. I've not been a games fan long, but I've certainly noticed that Nintendo give away a few neat prizes!

yea your right because its a good change from all of the other standard traditional controllers. and gives your hand more room aprt from each other. so guess well have to wiat and see what happens. if nintendo will make a hit or crash and burn with the revolution.

I believe the revolution will live up to our expectations on giving us something new!!!!! I know for a fact it will be way better the the Xbox 360!
