haha. Yea, I like some of the Sony Boys now. "O, Wii is ruining gaming!!! Its taking it in completly the WRONG DIRECTION!!!" Now: " O that seems great. Its gonna REVOLUTIONIZE gaming!! It doesnt even have buttons but its still definitly taking the hardcore gaming in the right direction!!!" I bet this is the last wii see of this. |
Ugh. Stop being such a [insert gaming insult word here]. People (as in, not just "Sony Boys") criticize the Wii because it's not technologically much better than the previous generation consoles. That's the wrong direction some people fear. No one here just changed their minds in fact you are the one that is starting this fanboy (crap, I used one of the words anyway) debate. The controller for the Wii may lead consoles in a great new direction. The PS3 also has motion sensing and it's better than people think. However, I would have liked the Wii to be a little less powerful than the 360 and PS3 instead of where it is now because the motion controls don't exactly cost them a lot and the Wii would still be cheaper.
Anyway, this patent may never see the light of day but this has nothing to do with the wrong direction argument.
EDIT: To respond to your other comments, I'd like to say that I'm sure the design would work for different hand sizes. I'm curious what the material is. Also, each finger could easily be used for a "button" press, giving it at least 5 buttons right off the bat. The picture has both hands holding one, as well, so that's 10 buttons. Geez, be creative.
