The real reason why the wiimote is popular wasnt because of its motion sensing controls and the pointer, why its so special was because of its design. Its a wiimote, its designed as a remote control like in your TV.
So unless SONY and MS wants to sued by Ninty the motion controller thing will not work. Unless they want to blatantly rip off Ninty's design, remember, Nintendo have money right now to sue everyone copying their designs, MS and SONY was losing money so Ninty can sue MS and SONY if they copied the wiimote.
end of core gaming days prediction:
E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced
E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.
E3 2010- Tape runs out
