I believe Microsoft Kinect will have motion controls in the near future.

The thing with that is, by the time people DO notice, new consoles will be out, so it wont even matter. The battle for motion controls was joined too late by the HD systems to really pull any crowd away from the Wii userbase. BTW, theoretically Wii does have scanning tech, it was made by Ubisoft. The Ubicam does body scanning/motion detection.

No offense to casuals, but I doubt it will matter to them. Core and moderate gamers will notice though. Still not enough people to make a difference and sway Microsoft really. This is why I think Microsoft didn't think enough into the tech like Sony did.

See this is the thing, where I work and the customers who are buying Kinect seem to know exactly what that little black camera does. I think you seem to be ignorant in this fact. MS marketing was not just showing it, it was showing what it did.

The advertising that I have seen at least in aus, i doubt it differs that much around the world, is that they explain what it is. Foxtel ads especially do this.

This is why Microsoft knows exactly what they are doing. All I can see on Move ads (the few that I have seen on aus tv) is what the games look like when you are doing it. I think MS marketing may be smarter in this aspect.
