If Sony would just introduce a PS2 with motion controls, they'd be starting with installed base of 0.

 

Thats the point. It would be a "backwards compatible PS2" with motion controls, a PS2.5 if you will. Every Wii game could be ported to it.

 

They could call it something non threatening like a Pii. How genius whould that be? Sony could have a new console basically without doing much work. Hell the PS2 already rivals the Wii in power so why not?

Why not? Because it's not a very good business move.. Also it'd probably infringe on a lot of patents if every Wii game could be ported to it.. Also why would publishers waste more resourses on porting Wii games to PS2.5 when it has no install base while the other consoles continue to grow.. 

It'd be Sony basically saying hey, we want you guys to make games for this console which is a Wii clone, yeah divert resourses from HD development to support Wii/PS2.5 games..

It would be idiotic
