Since we're on the topic, . I especially love when the kid with the standard genesis controller gets frustrated because pressing a button on a pad isn't as fast as flapping your arms over an infrared beam! Genesis does what Wiidon't.
I've only watched some seconds of this ad so far, but it looks very cool
. Just for the record, the Activator is one of the most annoying ways to play games! Though I think it is possible to beat a game like Sonic with it if you trained hard enough; this is a feat that I wouldn't mind accomplishing some day.
Also about "finding your thumbs" and using them on your controller. I typically don't push buttons on a Genesis pad with my thumb, I usually use my three middle fingers. Usually for games like Sonic that only have one button I will use my thumb but for anything else, especially tapping shooters and fighting games, I use my three fingers at once. It's easier to access the buttons for me and it's also a helluva lot faster to tap
.
Anyway, those of you who were paying attention might have noticed that Best of the Best was shown in some of the footage. It was the "sequel" (of sorts) to Andre Panza's Kickboxing! That alone is reason to get the Activator, which I will get one of these days. I already own Best of the Best 
(or whatever the heck that game was called).
Does that Best of the Best game have anything to do with that sweet 80's movie starring Chris Penn?
