What's the problem of using a pointer to navigate a menu? It's basically the same thing as using a mouse, fast and easy.


No. The mouse has a couple of advantages your hand is lying on the mouse so you don't have to actively hold a position to remain at the same point. You do not have to search the screen and a mouse is more accurate.

Pointing may be ok for a gaming session but it would be annoying for a long time.

On the other thing the Microsoft interface could use a facelift it looks hideous. The clean, minimalistic look of the XMB with the functionality of the Dashboard would be perfect.

 

 I can't seem to navigate moving the wiimote through the air.  I think it would add too much complexity when trying to navigate a complex menu system like PSN Store or the Marketplace.  Also, I don't think MS would spend the kind of money required to create a 3D dashboard unless it is a service similar to Home. 



Thanks for the input, Jeff.
