I think as long as this type of stuff is optional it will do well.

That looks insanely cheap. I'm all for the idea, but I'm not all for shoddy accessories and poorly executed ideas, which I feel will plague the system.

Ditto. I'd actually prefer to just use the bare-bones Revolution controller than have some add-on distracting me from the immersion on-screen. The contrast between the "real" fake sword and the "virtual" graphics would be too jarring.

How would that sword attach itself to the controller in a way that wouldn't cause it to fly off every time you swing it? Or is that the whole idea? LOL

My thoughts exactly. I don't mind the concept of using the standard controller, but I ain't dressing up like a elf boy. Pretty damn hilarious pic.

Well i don't know about the Cosplay, but i think the sheild has potential.
I dont think this represents serious accessories.
Its like an image for advertising.
I its more symbolic of what you could imagine the controller doing.

It will only fly off when your hearts are full.

You guys are worried this will break, fly off, or somehow mess up?
Are you forgetting that this is Nintendo we're talking about?! All of their consoles are built like tanks.

"And for halloween i dressed my iPod up like a sword, made an external speaker that looked like a shield, then ran around the town looking for Gannon while the "Zelda theme" played repeatedly."
I hope that sword isnt a sign of things to come.

For some reason it seems like a really akward moment would ensue if someone walked in while you were playing with this...
Seriously, I think this is one of the more original FAKE pics I have seen of the Rev controller thus far. 4cr also has this pic up right now.

So Im the only person here that would jump on this in a split second if it were real? lol despite it being fake, I would pay the price for a replica of the master sword and shield anyday.

Anyhow, I am mostly interested in the controller for its pointing abilities. Being able to "pull" along a character in a sports game...that'd be cool.

As cheesy as it could be, you are not alone. But as I said earlier, your wife comes home early and you are in the living room in your boxers swinging around your master sword. Yeah that might look a little akward, then again I have not played guitar hero yet.

No, I would too. And I would actually USE it.

that's interesting, looks to be quite different
Who knows though
it might be quite different but it might be a start of an idea, though it's all good.
