I thought most ps3 and 360 owners hate motion controls

In short, when Nintendo does it, its a gimmick and a mark for those wh othink they're 'hardcore' gamers to make fun of.

But when Microsoft or Sony comes out with a similar device on their own systems, those same people have to defend it because its on their favorite system and 'one upped' Nintendo.

To be fair, the Wii was aimed at the casual audience, Hardcore PS3 360 gamers saw the whole console as a gimmic, the Sony/MS motion controls are aimed at the casual end of Hardcore.

E.G. We have Resident Evil coming out for Sony's motion controller, when the Wii launched, you had those little cartoon dudes to play tennis with.

I think this is more about presentation than people simply having a bias (though I am sure most people do have a bias, myself included)

...you mean...the Miis?  Which both Sony and Microsoft have made their own version of?

The point simply was, no matter how you slice it, the people who mocked Wii for its motion controls and are now obsessing over either Natal or the 'Wand' are pretty much being hypocritical.  Same could be said about all the changes MS and Sony have been aming over the last 2 years that resemble Nintendo, such as 'Avatars' or 'Interactive Menues for selecting games' or etc.

I dont think Sony have anything like that....unless you mean home, which is really more of a bad 2nd life rip off.

And MS have copied the PS eye more than the Wii's motion tech, nobody ever said Sony were ripping off Nintendo when the eyetoy or PS eye were released, that is mainly due to the fact that the eyetoy came out before the Wii, If anything, it is Sony that should be angry as MS and Nintendo that should be angry at Sony over the "GEM" Wiimote clone.
