I actually think most comments on here are rather sarcastic...

It's a bitch slap to Nintendo is what it is. It has a f'n nunchuck for God's sake.

You can say that about anything. the droid from verizon is a rip off of an iphone. A game is a rip off of another game. The list can go on and on.

Lol. Are you really comparing a new motion controller (of which there are only 2 similar ones) to something as commoditized as a phone?

I am a bit disappointed cause it really looks like th Wiimote and Nunchuck. Ok, there are a few buttons here and there, but basically, it is an imitation. I find it so amusing that both Sony and MS said that partygames suck and now Sony showed a demo of such a game. This is hypocrisy at its best. Anyway, I am still looking forward both to the Move and Natal controllers because the least it will bring is an early WiiHD.

You can say Natal is an advanced version of the eye-toy. Let's not act like No other company but Sony copies someone else. that's the point I was trying to make. Is PS-Move a knockoff of the Wii-mote,sure but as long as it's not %100 exactly the same and they don't violate any patents they can probably get away with doing this. This goes for any other company in the history of the world. Yes that's me being sarcastic. lol

Just a comment on the 'but here's this video from 2004/2005' defence that people seem to be using, does that pre-date the Wii? I mean, Wii was launched in 2006, and first talked about in like 2003/2004, and then we have the knowledge of Nintendo working on the next console from the moment they launch the preceding one (so 2001/2002).

At best you are looking at concurrent development.
