You wanted them to not use any sport related to something Nintendo has done?  Poor Sony, if they don't want to get accused of copying Nintendo they have to invent entirely new sports just to make you happy.

I was merely countering his point that they would not look like copies, which is false. They will inevitably look like copies, which i will grant isn't *fair*, but is certainly the case. Much like Move itself against the Wii remote. Sony's trying to put forth a legitimate effort to one-up Nintendo's motion control efforts by providing similar hardware and software, but technologically superior in both cases. The problem is that this is inevitably going to clash with the well-established Nintendo products

I'm not saying Sony should come up with new sports, but I am saying that it's going to look like a copy to the consumer, and that it will naturally be hard for them to differentiate the experience enough.

Well I agree with you there, it will inevitably look like a straight copy to most consumers.
