why? because ign can draw pretty pictures?

just think of the size of that thing. by those dimensions it'd dwarf
the original xbox pad.

Dont because ign has no idea what it will look like. This is just a design
they thought up. They had so little time to make it that the sizes
are wrong.

That's a mockup. It's not real.

Oh come on, I'm not that daft.
It because Nintendo plans to have a controller shell as an option. I'm
sure they'll make it somewhat like the Cube controller or similar.

Nintendo didn't need to create a controller shell and don't expect it to
release soon

cause we can still use gamecube controllers on the revolution

Like Nintendo (or any other hardware company) will let us off the hook
about buying a new shiny $19.99 peripheral for their new system. They
need to make money on more than just consoles. Just look at all the
crap you have to buy to get a XBox 360 wireless controller working.
Wireless Controller+Play & Charge Kit+Rechargeable Battery Pack. Of
course, you could just buy two NMH rechargeables and forget the
peripherals.
