Yes I have returned to VGChartz once again and hopefully I can stay around a while. I have served my time two successive bans over the course of the month resulting in a three week absence.

Oh well lets the good times roll. I will help liven up the forum boards with my PS3 Vs X360 threads and other funny threads in Off-Topic.

For the record there will be no Anti-Wii threads or troll comments on the Wii from me. I will try to avoid the Nintendo forums and not mention the Wii.

My strategy plan has changed upon my return. PS3 Vs X360 HD console wars rages on.

 

Both contributed major innovations to controllers. Nintendo added the mass market dpad+buttons+start select controller, Sony moved in dual analog and built in rumble. Sony added controlling the console via movement (via the eye toy) and Nintendo adapted more exact movements to a controller. Microsoft made controllers bigger then the biggest hamburger you've ever seen which didn't catch on quite as well.

How is adding 2 analogue sticks innovation over the original 1 (main penetration and use via N64 although I believe an earlier system had one... not sure if it was full analogue though (distance +direction) or just directional.

And vague motion sensing has been around longer than the eyetoy.... the Dreamcast had a controller kind of like the Wii's except not so great... the powerglove came before it, (also not so great) and the NES zapper used a camera in kind of the opposite way to what the eyetoy does (Zapper is half way between Wiimote IR and eyetoy)

eyetoy is a good thing though, I do like it.

I'd say the memory card has been a good thing from Sony, although it's not needed so much anymore.
