aye, they had to make it exactly like the Wiimote because they are clueless.  Its not like they had a big list of design ideas and options to choose from.  All they had was the Wiimote to copy, and so they did, right down to the finest details like initial game designs and advertising.  

There is no specific reason, noble or malicious, for designing the Move as it is other than the simple fact that Sony isn't capable of designing anything else.  They copied Wii word for word out of necessity.

hahahaha, lol

wow am I sick of this brainless platitude.  How about instead of considering nothing while forming our opinions, we instead consider everything.  Shutting off your brain in order to form a shallow opinion of something is preschool stuff, not some display of ultimate video game wisdom...  

nope

Sony are shameless, talentless, virtueless whores.  Always have been, always will be.  The Move is a SYMPTOM, not the disease.

Actually now that I think about it Nintendo should be happy that Sony has this new device. What it means is it finally will break the PS3/360 paradigm (where most games are made for PS3 and 360 and ignore the Wii). This will introduce a new PS3/Wii alliance where companies like EA make games that are designed for both the PS3 and the Wii (which isn't as hard as you'd think since both run on Open GL vs the Direct X MS uses).

This means more games for the Wii almost certainly plus more games for the PS3. It's really a win for both.

This is especially important for the Wii, I would say, since it reduces a lot of the risk inherent in making 3rd party games for the Wii.

If you have to roll the dice on being one of that 5% of 3rd party games that finds an audiance on the Wii it's a hard decision, if your risk is spread across both the Wii and the PS3 (where 3rd party games have a much higher hit rate since there is no "every game we publish will sell 10 million copies" 800 pound first party gorilla taking up 80% of software dollars) it makes a lot of games possible for both platforms that wouldn't be possible for either one alone.
