Re:Using it as a controller (Score 1)

Sony also conveniently ignored that Nintendo's attempted GBA/Gamecube tie-ins were written off as gimmicks by most consumers. While I played both Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles and Zelda: Four Swords (the two flagship GBA/GC titles) and enjoyed them quite a bit, I'd be surprised if that model ever sold much more hardware for Nintendo. Of course, it looks like Nintendo's trying it again too with the DS/Wii tie-ins... but we have yet to see which direction that will take.
