Forums - Sony Discussion - PS Move : Anyone notice in these forums that ....

McClaren on 11 March 2010

The price really doesn't sound that crazy.

Currently it cost $60 for the Wii remote and nunchuck. So it is reasonable for the Move to cost the same. Also the Playstation Eye currently costs $40.

So that brings us to a total of $100. Not to bad considering I didn't add a game to that total.

It's quite clear what the complaints are about. The lack of originality on Sony's part and attempting to cash in on the market as well as the constant hypocrisy of some people saying 4 years ago how much motion control sucked.


Do you have links that quote people who hated it before who think its great now?  If so, post them, instead of making broad accusations to a huge amount of people

Of course I don't I'm merely stating that people are contradicting themselves when they say the Move is awesome when 4 years ago they blasted the Wiimote. I don't have any examples but it should be quite obvious there are people like that on these forums.


Maybe there were and maybe there weren't.  Could it be the people who compalined about it 4 years ago don't like this device?  And its other Sony backers who think its great? 

Guess I'm not sure why you're complaining at all when you don't even have a PS3.  Right now I'm getting the impression you're just taking this opportunity to bash PS3 owners.

Well I clearly wasn't. Don't make assumptions about me when you clearly don't have any evidence to suggest that I was bashing PS3 owners. I am saying that people were bashing the Wiimote 4 years ago but now those same people are praising the Move. Did I ever say PS3 owners? No, I never did. I just said some people did that. You don't have to look real hard to find them.

But please enlighten me as to where I was bashing PS3 owners.

What Vetteman just said...

You're the one who started this by saying its the same people, yet you can't come up with one example. 

Why do you feel the need for me to provide examples?

Anyway, there's plenty of stuff in this thread.

http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=103615

Because otherwise you're just bashing "nameless" PS3 owners that could be anybody who is supporting the device.  Did you ever think that maybe some people really are excited about it?  And not just because they hate Nintendo? 

If someone HAS done this, then by all means, call them out.  But doing it the way you are implies a lot of people, and a lot (all?) of them are blameless.

I still haven't figured out exactly why you're complaining...

Well, feylic for one in that thread. leo-j seems to like it for some reason as well. Kotaku as well. Hus. Do you also want me to go years back into their post history and detail anti-Wiimote posts?

Well if you're going to try and call me out, I most certainly would like you to do that.

You make it sound like the Wii was the only console being hated on back then, get over yourslef, for ever hate topic you can find about the wiimote (created by nameless PS3 fans) i can find 5+ hate topics aimed at Bluray and PS3.

That wasn't my point. Don't put words in my mouth.

I dont know where you people are finding others that said they hated motion controlled gaming and now like it because Sony is doing it.

Examples or stop spreading the BS.

Find someone that is supporting the PS3 Move that doesn't own a Wii and you'll find someone that mocked it in the past. If they were really into the idea they would have bought a Wii during the last 3 years, no?

That is absolute BS and you know it.  So just because they never had a Wii, that instantly means they were against the idea all together.  Maybe it was something they were never interested in, but now that it is accessible to them because the console they own is adopting motion controlled gaming as an alternative they became interested in seeing what it is all about. 

And BTW, There could be plenty of reasons for someone not owning a Wii,  motion controls isnt always one of them.

Again.  Examples or stop spreading the BS

Well it doesn't seem to prove much unless you find that they bashed the Wii to begin with.  Which is my whole point...otherwise you're just bashing anyone who likes the device.  I don't know enough about anyone on here to know whether they did or not, but I figured I'd see these type of comments: "everyone who hated it years ago loves it now!  Fanboys!"  when in fact that's probably far from the truth.  I'm sure there is one here or there that falls into it, but to make it sound like a majority (not saying you did) is just untruthful.

Because now it just falls into the category of common sense. For god's sake, do you really think I'm going to dissect people's post history can clearly put on display their bias? Of course not!

Seriously, if you actually CARE enough to know that it's true, look into their post histories yourself.


I only care that you don't accuse people who didn't do anything.  I'm getting the impression you don't care if you sound like you're saying everyone who likes the "move" is hypocrites, but that's the impression I'm getting from you.

I don't understand at all what is "commen sense".  Do those posters always bash everything that any other company does or something?

Oh, and I just saw that they priced it as under $100. That means really close to $100.

Yeah, that is a BIT overpriced when the Wiimote and Nuchuck were merely $60 4 years ago and they're basically the same. You can see where more complaints stem from.


NO. NO. They haven't "priced" anything. Please stop this misinformation and pay attention to what they said at the conference.

It's a GAME DEVELOPERS conference, and they WILL BE selling the DEVELOPMENT kits for move under $100. OK? got that? 

 

Development kit price > Retail consumer price. Always. And I'm not saying that bundle won't/couldn't be priced $100 or $99 or whatever for the consumer. But the point is, they haven't priced anything or decided how to MARKET IT for that matter.

Hell, I'm complaining because I already own a Wii.

Developers have been dying for Wii HD, now they have it. I expect tons of support.

I highly doubt that's even remotely true. Every company would have gone under if only the 2 HD consoles existed, even Activision. Remember how they posted a loss after the amazing MW2 sales? The only thing that is actually keeping companies afloat this generation are the Wii and, very surprisingly, the PC.

PC is a company?

So companies are staying alive beacuse of the strong support of the Wii?
