If Microsoft just throws the old controller to the side or makes it secondary in most games and implements natal as the primary control scheme of the 360+ and it is the main control mechanism of Gears 3, for example, then people will just have to go along with it. And, most of the press seems to be giving Natal a very warm reception. Usually when things like this are announced the press either gives it a lukewarm reception and it doesn't go so far, but with most of the press saying it was awesome and that Microsoft won E3 because of it, it is already generating hype. |
I can understand the warm reception i just don't know if this can translate to sales and widespread adoption this late in the generation
They can't possibly make it the primary controller unless they make it very cheap or they risk alienating the 30+ million who bought the system before this controller was announced and who may not be interested in playing GeOW3 with NATAL. I can see it's potential for certain genres but i am far from convinced that it could replace a traditional controller for all.
