Another Render (yeah... I Know...)

[Patrick R Ludvigsen]

Very Impressed overall, but if possible, a Sega Saturn/Megadrive 6 button style pad with more natural diagonals would really be the icing on the cake!

I agree. I thiml 6 buttons is a must for certain systems like arcade and such. Using L and R buttons for certain arcades is uncomfortable.

A USB addon with two buttons could be made and clipped onto the side

EvilDragon: please, can you add the BT light and some hires version? What about adding more devices for comparison like a 3.5 HDD and some handheld device?

hey

Personally, I would have gone with G A M E or something P A N D - or G P 2 X - something that the big boys really couldn't complain about.

I haven't read all the posts yet, anyhows I really agree with these labels, as because they are like words you don't get confused about the order . I'm actually surprised that this isn't a common labeling scheme or whatever.

I think the next render should have a picture of a fish....people like fish....or just the go the semi nude woman picture, with maybe her wearing a photoshope Pandora boobtube or something? tasteful? who cares!

For the record, I found the Playstation system of geometric shapes nearly impossible to remember. I don't own a PS myself, but I used to play a fighting game at a friend's sometimes and it sometimes asked to press the buttons in a certain order quickly to perform a special move (some symbols would be displayed on the screen and you'd have to press them). I couldn't think fast enough to ever do it in time. Frankly, for a newcomer, the PS's layout sucks.

So whatever the final layout turns out to be, I vote AGAINST having it be anything not quickly recognizable or unpronounceable (like Greek letters, colours, shapes or blank spaces).

You find Playstation shapes hard to remember?

You must have failed this then.

So either, you looked 6 months back for a post you could make a witty reply to, or it took you this long to come up with one.

I suppose if there's still some debate on the button labels, I don't mind NSEW, I sorta like it. It begs me to slap a cardinal points sticker in between the buttons

But I suppose a compromise could be hollow triangle point up, down, left and right. That way they'd be interchangeable with the d-pad for lefties.

I vote for NSFW.

I didn't read the date on that. Just found this thread and well...I'm at a loss for words.

 

[Ryuu]

ARGHHHHHHHHHH!!! why you bump a dead thread and get my hopes up

 

[Yigguth]

lock this thread.
do it.

I thought ED had made a new render just to tick us off... :lol:

 

[mechanizeddeath]

You guys think you feel bad? I wasted about two minutes of my life going over this "new" render, trying in vain to figure out what was different between this and the one I've seen a thousand times before. :unsure:

Then I noticed the date. :angry:

I did the exact same thing mechanized. :lol:

Dammit, me too! I was trying to get myself hyped up about the render but something wasn't quite right. *sigh*

 

[lucidchaos]

More to come in the next few days... some very real looking stuff

I hope this applies today as well.

I got eight pages in before I realized something wasn't right.

Didn't check the month on the date. I thought at first, "how did I let this slip for two days?!"

Please lock this thread.

if you've never seen a thread and discover it up at the top, and it has more than 12 pages, you should automatically know somethings not right. (not saying i didn't take a look at the render)

Why? Because you want to sluff off attention from yourself for your own stupidity?

You must have failed this then.
You bumped a 6 month old thread just to be a jackass? Don't do it again.
