<BLOCKQUOTE>Can you feel it? The build up to that time again when we're told to dump our old game machines and go next gen? Today I even saw people getting excited over a screenshot released from Xbox 360's Project Gotham Racing 3, showing nothing but a detailed slab of concrete (see illustration picture at the right). To be fair though, some gamers have already questioned if they'll even notice that pavement when speeding down the streets at 200kph! And those are most likely some of thousands that still play their old consoles too, because they know even now, another generation of more realistic concrete is just 5 years away, and another after that. These are the people that know it's the gameplay that matters, and something to truly get excited about are new concepts, new ideas, and new ways to play.

These gamers often feel left out in the cold however, as factories focus on making everything from the latest PS2 Component cables, to wireless Xbox controllers, and ignore the classic players, who wouldn't mind a bit of love every now and then! Without radio frequency technology for example, the older machines are left in the dark ages... or at least they were until today, when the messiah arrived!

Messiah Entertainment is a company that just introduced the first ever RF wireless NES and SNES controllers. These unique pads will definitely bring those retro systems back to life, with cables being a thing of the past now! These pads sport many features: unblockable strength of high-quality 2.4GHz wireless technology, four selectable channels for 1-4 players (when connecting up to four receivers), two or four action buttons (depending on the NES or SNES pad), and even touch sensitive spots for Start, Select, Turbo and Slow modes! Not to forget an Arcade-style 360 degree rotating D-pad, and included with the wireless controllers you'll find a receiver, a Messiah dog tag, a comic manual and two AAA batteries, so you can start playing right away. Not wanting to leave Super SmartJoy users in the past either, the Messiah pads have been tested to work 100% with this adapter!</BLOCKQUOTE>
