So Nintendo spends millions for the the research on the Wii remote. Consumers buy into the technology. Sony and Microsoft should be able to implement the Wii remote technology into the PS3 and Xbox360? Sony and IBM spend millions to research the Cell processor. The Wii is woefully underpowered in terms of raw processing power. Nintendo should be able to just get the entire blueprints to incorporate the Cell into the Wii, right? Microsoft spend millions of dollars in user interaction and usability studies for their Xbox Live interface, the most robust online service (paid or otherwise) among the big three. Sony and Nintendo should be able to take a few screenshots, work out their UI flow, and do the same for their respective consoles, right? Do you have any idea how asinine your comment reads? Based on your comment, you should stick to gaming on Linux.
