^^LOL. Looks like Natal games where motion detection is the main control method, are going to look like Wii games :) I would rather that not be the case, but Wii fans don't seem to mind.

cheap price = more sales = better market penetration = higher overall success probability

Natal and Sony Wand are both VERY difficult move to do

It may have been a very difficult move to do back in the Wii launch day...

 

Nowadays they are just following what Nintendo did so successfully. And this chip drop, if saves costs and mantains the performance,the consumers are the ones gainning with that.

 

cheaper Natal is on the way. Who's sad?

 

P.S - And I'll take the "hallowed 100ms lag" with a grain of salt, we saw much more than that in the E3 demo... but it was a demo, so...
