I will just say 1 thing is anyone really gonna hold that monstrosity for hours at a time? Good luck playing real hardcore games with that thing for any length of time without major pain. Nintendo's going into the carpel tunnel surgery game?

It's not much bigger than a PSP really. I don't think the size wil necessarily be a problem.

As you can see, I got my internet connection back up.

I find that hard to believe, the original PSP was hard to hold without resting it on something after a short time especially laying bed. That thing is at least twice the size of of the 1st PSP.

It's much bigger than a PSP. PSP is only 6.7 inches wide, the U controller is over 10.5 inches wide.

The size won't be a problem for me, I won't be buying this thing.

Okay so I'm off base. Just didn't look much bigger than the Vita demos I saw. Honestly I'm not too worried. Ultimately we always find new ways to hold controllers and we'll find a way to adapt here too I'm sure.

Wait till you get to my age sonny

Geek, I'm not doing updates until you go to sleep, so we don't have dupes etc...

The thing about the Dreamcast controller was that it was the first (other than the saturn nights controller) to place the joystick high enough on the left side to where your thumb naturally fell on it (where the XB and then 360 controller ended up putting their left one).

When I use the N64 I am usually unaware of how I hold it until look down. I naturally change my grip depending on the game.
