"It would be dead space there, just like segas vmu \'window\'." - Krimson

Yeah, but VMU "Window" does serve a purpose.. a very important one. It allows you to see what\'s on the screen of your VMU, while also obscuring it\'s view from the other players. That way, you can select plays in NFL2k1 or other sports game without everyone knowing exactly how to counter your offence, or get around your defence. It also serves purposes in games like RE:CV and allows for a quick glance at your health guage without stopping the action.

The VMU window is not dead space unless you don\'t have a VMU in it. The Xbox\'s huge logo serves NO game purpose.

If segas Memory cards didnt have screens, there would be dead space. the memory card slots iin the XB controller too, theres going to be dead space or a design. plain and simple. And the vmu was rarely actually used. You named every example that used it. It was always dead space for 99% of games...

well i don\'t see how it would have been dead space there w/o the logo and all - i mean the jap one is smaller so obivously it doesn\'t need to be that big and dang it that sucker is just not gonna fit in my hands - got small hands and big feet - yea i know i am weird

and also Krimson that IF about the sega controller - well if the VMU didnt have a screen then it wouldn\'t have needed to be in the Controller and could have just had a slot for a mem card and therefore they could just have closed in the dead space of the DC controller - but the VMU does have a screen so there is no arguing about that one

N64 cards have no screens. They\'re in the controller.

Probably because you were hoolding it wrong.  The shape was originally designed to be held so that your fingers, not your thumbs, would press the buttons.

I have held the controller and its not even close to what people say about it.  99 percent of the people who say things about it are like you and haven\'t even held it.

The controller is not bad.  Now the games using the controller need to be better for launch, this is true.

I have also held the Nintendo gamecube controller without a problem as well.

Now, Jumpman, being that you are two years old, you might have problems holding any controller or your bladder for that matter.

Don\'t be such a little penis.  Try to be open minded and try something for a change instead of living with Nintendo in the stoneage.
Shweeet!

Oh the troll picked me instead of one of the other ten people who laughed at the controller, how touching. :)

Hey ****er, I say it was huge, that\'s all. It\'s fanboys like you who interpret it in a wrong way.

I really don\'t care what you think about anything. Don\'t pester me with meaningless opinions, Dicwiz.

Oh going for a direct insult against moi? Don\'t even bother. It\'s hard using those insults on a 15 year-old.

Your pathetic. I pitty the ***** you supposedly married. How could a girl ever like a narrow minded imbecile such as yourself? And you have kids? God I hate to see a picture of those ugly ****s...

Being open minded is something you can never begin to comprehend Dicwiz. I used to hate Sega after I bought a Saturn(me and my brother that is), so naturally I wasn\'t to keen on the DC. But then I got interested in the games, and soon after I bought one. That\'s just an example of me being open minded, but there are none for you obviously.

Why must you annoy me? Is it because I\'m not interested in the X-Box? Blame MS and their developers for that, not me.
