The Eye Toy is pretty different. Unlike the Wii or VR, it had no physical inputs, just gesture based controls using your body. It's more a prototype Kinect if anything. The Wii Remote was one of the first controllers to combine gesture-based inputs, with the physical buttons and hardware of a controller. |
You are basically arguing an apple is better than another apple. They are both gesture based inputs. Eye toy at least put you into its creations via augmented reality which obviously a huge precursor to vr. Also, every vr setup needs a sensor or camera like the eye toy to be able to detect you. There is definitely more of a connection there then the Wii remote. Also, the Wii remote was not one of the first controllers to combine gesture with physical buttons. Maybe one of the first to find mainstream success... but that technology had been around for a very long time.
