I understand that the Revolution will have Gamecube controller ports on it anyways, so you can either plug in your old GCN controllers or even your wavebird, if you want to keep everything wireless.

Does this thing run on AA's, or use some internal battery? I might need to stock up...
yes, the controller "shell" as they are calling it will allow the rev. to play gcn games more easily. however, the ign picture is only a mockup as has been previously stated. and if you have seen pics of the rev. the side will have a flap that opens up with gcn controller ports and memory card slots.
as a proud member of the nintendo community forums, i am happy to say that the entire community galdy accepts your support of the big N! They have dared to go into unventrued territories, and have stated many times before that they they do not want the revolution to be compared to the xbox 360 or ps3. the new controller will please both new and old gamers alike with its innovative gameplay features. creating and designing a wireless controller with motion sensor capabilities such as "point and shoot" and a port that allows it to change to a "nun-chaku" design is truly an amazing feat to accomplish. the port will also allows other add-ons in the future, which will also enhance gameplay features.
as for using batteries, i believe that it is going to be charged, but am not 100% sure on that, so dont quote me. afterall, the wavebird used batteries.
that is all!
