It's a direct ripoff with slightly better functionality, and no new or innovative features whatsoever.

Why would anyone at Sony even bring up the Wii?

Supposedly they aren't competing, as says Sony's PR, and also, if I was Sony, I would be ashamed of acknowledging the Wii's existance. It's like the Vii saying they have a better looking console than the Wii because it has a clock on it.

Yes it was a rip off

also they were asked the question.. what do you want them to respond with? Oh the wii does not exist in our world?

You think this would be coming out if the Wii doesn't make a mint, and Sony was trying to get a piece?

You want to know when motion controls were invented? Before the wheel.

You want to know why the "PS3 motion controller" exists, and is coming out?

Guess.

And Sony could have just kept their mouths shut instead of again feeling the need to arrogantly insult their far superior(and yes, Nintendo as a competitor and a company is far, far superior to Sony, in marketing, business, and every other quantifiable measure) competitor who rarely mentions them, and who they are ripping off. That's one route they could have taken. No?

I become deservedly pissed off when people try to take credit for Nintendo's motion control revolution this generation. Motion controls are part of gaming now, all gaming, PS3 and otherwise, and that is directly because of Nintendo. Just because someone had a vague idea for the device before Nintendo recreated and popularized it, does not mean they deserve any credit.

Same thing goes for gaming. Something else Nintendo reinvented and popularized. Also, handheld gaming.
