lol...indeed. Must give credit where credit is due...


True but I seem to have forgotten that Police 911 came out in 1999 in Japan so

Game Boy Camera--> Police 911 --> Sega Dreameye = Mocap Boxing (both released in 2000) --> Eye Toy --> Kinect 

There that should be an accurate liniage of camera bassed motion tracking in the world of videogames and show that Nintendo was in fact the first to use a camera with a videogame system

I think the rule of thumb for articles like in the OP and gaming innovation in general is...it happened in USA or it never happened. So that would rule Police 911 out of the picture.

I mean look at online gaming. I clearly played Duke Nukem 3D and DAyton USA online with random people on my Sega Saturn using Sega Netlink in 1997 and Japan had online gaming networks for Genesis and Snes as early as 1991...yet somehow Dreamcast invented online for consoles. :)
