TWRoO, did you just say that even now, in the year of 2010, the PS3 can't run a 1:1 emulation of Wii Play?

As far as I am aware, it can't be as fast as Wii Play (ie getting high scores like 900pts would be nigh on impossible)

Then again, I haven't used the PSMove... I am basing this of the technology it is using (accellerometers are not as immediate tech as cameras)

A small note: the rotations are detected by accelerometers+gyroscopes+magnetic sensors apparently. I suppose the latest (earth magnetic field sensor) gives a bearing reading and keeps down the need for calibrations of the gyros. Anyway the accelerometers in the Wii are 100Hz, I don't think the rotation data for the Sony wand will be slower than that.

More importantly: if I were designing a "pointer" based game I wouldn't be using exclusively the rotation data. I'd be mostly using the translation of the glowing sphere as read by the camera.
