Did they have your money on SIXAXIS too?  Will this be any more successful? 

It's clearly just an adaptation/improvement on the Wii remote and nunchuck.

Yes, the tech works on the reverse principle (camera tracks movement and light from controller rather than camera from controller tracks IR light from sensor) which theoretically makes depth perception possible, and there are enough differences to make the product original enough to avoid a lawsuit, but in practice, they work pretty similarly.

Once you get your head unwrapped from the "only original ideas are worthwhile" fixation, you're brought back to the OTHER point that Reggie brings up: it ultimately depends entirely upon the games that use it.

That's all that matters.

Poor support; Move may as well not exist.

Provide support in the form of games that the Wii has been slow to provide; gamers now have reason to use one platform over the other.

lol it does not matter if it is new technology what matters is that it looks like the Wii Mote and it does the same thing but better they say... :P

it is not bad when you say the true thing unlike sony claiming they came up with motion first which is wrong as Nintendo had this motion stuff 19 years ago with the power glove.

so yes it is a Wii Too product

and then people say Nintendo is going to copy them by going HD next gen well lol of course they are going to go HD and it is not a copy the way people say it is as it is a natural evolution of what a machine should display. but as far as controllers go it is a choice not something people expect but when it is done others copy depending on it's success

i think most people are annoyed on the fact that what Nintendo does Sony does like the rumble and the analog stick or the d-pad and now the move wow sony you sure are creative.

now i used to get bothered by this but it is silly, though it is fun to take a stab on sony fans who try spin things around just like there father company does.

go Reggie!!

Man these threads sure are fun to read. All the bitching and moaning about what someone said about another system indirectly. Nice, I wonder what would happen if he threw a PS3 on the ground.

Are you... fucking kidding me? You don't like being a badass swinging swords, epic combats, scaling giant gods, etc? You're either 8 or 50 y/o. I can't figure what one.

42% of PS3 owners already have a Wii as well.  Meanwhile just 14% of Wii owners have a PS3.  This is why you hear Sony PR already pushing the "graduate to Move" path for Wii owners, and mindless analysts parroting it for their "PS3 eventually takes over" narrative they've been trying to sell the past four years.  They're not trying to sell people who've yet to buy a console, they're literally trying to sell to current Wii owners.

If consumers are in the market for an HD console and a console with motion controls, 360+Wii comes out to the same price as PS3+Move, and the former has by far the better library (Wii vs Move moreso than 360 vs PS3).  The mainstream wants Wii Fit and Mario, which is what your scenario seems to omit; it's the software stupid.

i love reading these threads they entertain me lol... what will you do if you work at Microsoft, Sony or Nintendo and an interviewer ask ya a question about the competitors? your comments will mainly be negative, tretton from Sony talks trash to Microsoft and Nintendo all the time in an interview

This is why its so dangerous to use sarcasm on the internet

As someone who's been calling it a Wii too before they showed just how wii tooish it even was, I'm glad this term is getting picked up.

OMG! On that Picture he looks exactly like Goh Hamazaki from Yakuza 3
