How are third parties going to help the Move again from the Wii in a considerable fashion?

Most of the system selling new I.P. were done with a naked Wiimote controller or a new accessory. Consider the Big three system sellers:

  • Wii Sports
  • Mario Kart
  • Wii Fit

The former sold on the novelty value of being an introduction to motion controls. That novelty has now passed. Mario Kart cannot be done on Move anyway so it can't be replicated and Wii Fit requires an accessory/interface which Sony again doesn't offer.

The rest of their I.P like Mario, SSBB, Metroid etc sold proportionally to the increased install base between this generation and the last with the exception of NSMB which is an explosion in sales over anything else using standard controls. However Sony again hasn't replicated Nintendos ability to drive massive attach rates for their software as everything they got is niche in some way with the exception of GT5 which Move doesn't apply to.

Since Sony only has access to Wii third party ports and tacked on motion controls from third parties, since this hasn't driven adoption or given success on the Wii where the userbase apparantly has a dog mentally according to some here wherein the more it stinks the more interesting it is whilst the Sony userbase is refined?? So how exactly are they going to fall for the same tricks if they are that much smarter? Maybe the Sony userbase is too clever for Sony.



Tease.
