Ultimately, I think Sony and Microsoft will end up utilizing better, more effective versions of motion sensing controls, and one-up Nintendo at some point. Are we talking about if Sony/MS came out with the controls FIRST?
If first, I think Sony or MS would of been given a huge advantage - Sony could of more readily justified their pricetag, and MS would of had a huge advantage as well.
IMO, there are things about the Wiimote controls that can, and could be bettered by MS/Sony in the future, if they really cared to do it.
What things? As far as my understanding is, the sensor bar only detects a certain range of movement. I think MS/Sony could put out a system that doesn't have that issue...Maybe multiple sensor bars that are less intrusive, and allow for much greater freedom, and possibly more refined and stylish.
Ultimately, I think the Wiimote will become the console's mouse. Something that everything has. But I do believe that at some point though, it'll live in tandem with traditional controls, and far moreso on the 360/PS3 than the Wii.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
