The Wii wil never get the kind of third party support that the PS2 had.

^ A gimmick this late in gen will never take off...

I thought motion controls weren't a gimmick. Or are they just not a gimmick for the Wii? Or WAS is a gimmick for the Wii that just stuck with people?

Either way, I was just tossing that notion out there. He said there'd be an "even playing field graphically with motion controls in 2010". Exactly when Natal and PS-Mote are coming out

@ Samus Aran: Yeah I'm not sure you can call motion controls a "gimmick" cause other platforms adopted the idea late, while the penetration of Sony's & Microsoft's motion tech may not raise above niche this gen, if they do like I'm suspecting and go with these controls schemes as they're primary interfaces then definitely you will see a even playing field next gen, as Nintendo stated many times before that with the adoption of HD their next console will output HD as well.

 

@Bmaker11: We have to see how serious Microsoft & Sony are about changing their interface, I believe Microsoft will go ALL IN, but Sony I'm not so sure they are willing to call that bet. I mean look everyone seen the hell Nintendo caught with changing their control scheme, sure the blow will be lessen for MS & Sony cause with the success of Nintendo it's to be expected, but do they REALLY want to alienate the core gamers they built their marketshare with?
