Revolution Controllers as Light Sabers

This YouTube video is only an animation.  It shows 2 Revolution controllers as light sabers in a duel.  But I think it shows some of the potential that we can look forward to with the Revolution. 

When Nintendo first unveiled their new controller design, I turned-up my nose at the thought of it.  “What were they thinking?!” seemed to be the common vibe across the internets.  But the more I see and hear (and I think a lot of you are with me here), the more I’m intrigued.  I’m genuinely excited to get my hands on one of these and take it for a spin. 

The space that Nintendo has given themselves to grow with this design and functionality is huge.  In the meantime I’ll settle for just playing it.  But I’m really looking forward to the subsequent generations of game design with this system.
