What it is certain is that they will be better than the Wiimote. No company would be retarded enough to release a subpar product while they are trying to compete in such markets. It would be like thinking the next Firefox will be a downgrade compared to IE 8.

However I think the point here is about reaching audiences, right? It would come down to software mostly, I think. That would be another side of the coin. You can be clearly better on a technical way, but games come down mostly to subjective experience, so to speak.

Natal/Wand > Wiimote?? Maybe motion controls 1:1, but for the controller functions, are you sure?

If you want to play Super Mario Galxy you use Wiimote, for LOZ Twilight Princess use Wiimote, for Silent Hill SM use Wiimote, for NSMBWii use Wiimote, for Mario Kart Wii use Wiimote, for NMH use Wiimote...all games with wiimote.

If you want to play a platformer on XBOX360 or PS3, you'll use natal/wand? Natal dont use controller and wand only have one way. In other way, Wiimote can be used alone, like a nes controller, with nunchuk or with a peripheral. (Wii Zapper, Wii Wheel)

You can't play Halo 3 or Uncharted 2 with natal/wand (until now). So...

natal&wand =/= wiimote

natal&wand = wii motion plus (peripheral)
