Well I hadn't read that, thank you for pointing it out. You are right nvidia did start 3d gaming on PC, and motion gaming on PC was started well before the wii was even though of, same goes with PS MOVE or any other motion controller in the market today.. So based on that.. what can we say? People are still going to call sony the one's rippin off NINTENDO, and when sony brings something to the mainstream market and suddenly nintendo decides to jump on that idea too, we can't say nintendo is "ripping" off anyone..

This little war between nintendo fans and sony fans is beyond stupid, and needs to stop already.

I've never once spoken concerning the impetus behind the development and release of the Move, so that's lost on me.

And the two situations aren't even analogous: Sony hasn't brought 3-D gaming to the mainstream yet.

You're not helping the "war" problem when you jump in with unresearched statements, leo-j.

But they will, sony is releasing the ps3 3D firmware update this spring, well before nintendo launches the new DS. But again, its stupid. Both Sony and nintendo have added to the gaming world in substantial ways, and both companies have taken, improved upon, and been influenced by things the other one has done. It works out best for gamers this way. For example, playstation move is clearly designed after the wiimote, but it looks to improve upon the precision and range of the motion controls which is a net boon for gamers everywhere. Add into the fact that now nintendo will have to come out with something to one up sony, and it gets even better. Its why I'm glad MS entered the industry, it hurt playstation sales, but it forced sony to raise the quality and quantity of its first party output to compete with an increasingly multiplatfrom industry. 

It is NOT designed after the wii mote, but its release was CLEARLY influenced on the success of the wii mote, so Im sure if we didn't have the wii mote being as successful as it was, we wouldn't have the PS move coming out.

Besides that, your post is absolutely correct..

im getting tired of nintendo fans posting "OH SONY RIPPING OFF NINTENDO AGAIN, THATS ALL THEY CAN DO"
