You know another thing to consider with these motion controllers is, who are the ones who are going to buy these things? For the most part, I think its going to be those who already own the console.

For Move, I could maybe see it bringing some over from the Wii, at least a the few who like the control setup and want a little more power running under the hood. And I can see it maybe bringing a few who are on the fence still about getting a game system and maybe were thinking of the Wii or an HD system. Of course, I don't think it will be that many. But, with it already being proven that it can have a hardcore game made using it, I see quite a few current owners picking it up and those who would have bought the PS3, anyway.

Now for Natal, what is the number 1 genre on 360? Shooters. Now, that's not a jab at the 360, just a well known fact that the majority of people who own it love their shooters. Are these owners really going to buy Natal, just so they can play some casual games, as hardcore games are going to be close to impossible with Natal (even Halo Reach was supposed to use it, but it never panned out)? I don't think so. And where I can see a few (read not very many) people getting the PS3 and Move for its familiarity with the Wii + more power, I really don't see many ditching the Wii just to pick up Natal to only be able to play even more simple casual games (without the good exclusives Nintendo has).

that is a very good point. However we all know how Microsoft is with Marketing.They even said they will have celebrities be in their advertisements. It might be something that sells really well but in the end it might be something that is collecting dust (like my wii).
