@ Slowmo

Wow... MS being innovative!!! That's a change.


This is Microsoft we're talking about so they actually just bought it then pretended they made it

I agree with CGI though that I hope both of the new motion controllers succeed but this time without the cheap gesture systems that ruined so many Wii titles for me (obviously given the sales though I'm in a minorityin this opinion I accept).

Cheap gesture system? Hey buddy, none of this would have happened if Nintendo hadn't taken the punt on motion controls 3 years ago. The price, atleast for Sony, would not have been feasable. Just be greatfull there are companies out there who are willing to redesign their controllers significantly, and take a HUGE risk on this technology. Without them you would be stuck in the past.

Regardless of whether they fail or not the Wiimote will go down in history as the key to the next generation in videogame technology.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
