Wow, media hate? You Wii boys need to stop crying about how you are the victims of hate. The media praises your consoles innovations just as much as other consoles. Just because you don't get the amount of positive coverage you think you deserve, does not mean the media is biased. The Wii already maxed out it's media potential when it brought motion control to the table. Why would the Media want to rehash the same old thing with slight improvements, when they could get more vewership off of something entirely different and new? Wii doesn't have games for hardcore gamers, they have Mario, Zelda, and Wii fit. Not Killzone2, Halo3, GT5, or Forza 3. They aren't even a HiDef console.

With that having been said, what if MS had released Wiimote+ and Nintendo had shown NATAL this E3? Would the hyp be the same? contend it would. People would have looked at the MS version of Wiimote+ and said, oh how cute, they are trying to copy the Wii. But if they saw Nintendo's version of NATAL, they would have sung it's praises because it is more innovative than anything they had come up with to date. I too would have been very impressed with it, and very unimpressed with MS Wiimote+ (after all, if I wanted to use a Wii mote, I would go out and buy a Wii)

media show same attention to Wii, are you serious!? gamespot is an example, it's like Wii does not even exist for them (or gaming magazines and this stuff)

it's a matter of opinion what you like, but Natal is so limited, most activities you don't even neeed Natal to do them at all, the only thing you could need Natal for is swordplay and karate or an on-rails shooter let's say but that can happen on WM+ as well, where you cannot use kicks let's say but you can more character and you do more things than just use a sword for example, i can't see how Natal is even close to WM+

but hey, Natal is from MS which has Xbox360 which has great graphics and mature games where WM+ is coming from the kiddy console that has shit graphics and company that is parasite to core gaming and makes un-interesting games even if they are rated 9.7 and sell 10 millions, so it's convinient to hate them, correct? : P

For the most part I agree with that statement! But, then again, to each their own. However, one thing I disagree with is your silly "Natal is so limited" argument. That is simply not true. NATAL is so unlimited it's not even funny, you don't have to work within the confines of a silly waggle remote. You have 3D full body motion sensing, and voice regonition. Two things the Wii mote can't do.
