| Gamerace said: Copying the Wiimote is generally a bad idea. Why would I get a PS3/360 for motion games when they have little such games to offer, and higher costs when I could get a Wii which has every game motion controlled, IR, plus balance board, wii wheel, 'lightgun' and lord knows what else they'll introduce this year and is cheaper to boot? Graphics? Not a seller for the mass market. |
I think it's safe to assume that Sony wouldn't release a motion controller without the software to support it , Getaway and Eight Days wern't cancled for no reason I believe ( and didn't the article say something to effect of.. ) there needs to be a redistribution of resources to meet Sony's change in strategy.
The only real cost disadvantage Sony will experience from releasing Wii-Type games are the cost of the Blu-Ray , I don't think developing SMG for the PS3 would have cost anymore for the PS3 than it did the Wii if the developers actualy know what they are doing , in most cases they will as casual games are usualy more generic/simple in nature and don't really need to push the hardware.
It's ironic because the pesimistic view you hold is similar to those who criticised the Wii and said that it could never succeed.
@HellFish , why would that matter ? Nothing about Nintendo Wii is actualy new .
