well that's also the point of the move... or did you think that move bowling and move pingpong were aimed at the super hard core?.... it's basically the point of all motion controls... and nintendo is genius for having seen it. Heck it's the same thing with touch screen.

We will see just which motion system is best at this years E3, I can't wait for people doubting Natal to see it in action, then they can come back to this thread and eat crow....

Then buy a 360 and not a PS3.

Have you seen the wand?

I hope this isn't true. If Move is just MotionPlus + and Natal is just EyeToy + than chances are neither will do to well.

Ahh no it's not dumb, for starters all it would take is a patch.  And by allowing backwards compatability you are expanding the moves games library massively.  Not only that but new casual gamers buying a ps3 for the first time won't have to try and work out if a game will work with move or not.

When you give it abit of thought it actually makes alot of sence.

Technically, Nintendo did say something to that effect.  They said they passed on the tech because cost issues and LATENCY concerns.  So they must have felt there was too much delay in the demo they were shown to warrant further investment in said tech.  Plus, I'm sure they were already invested with Gyration Inc. in coming up with the design for the Wiimote.

So why is it okay for some that Nintendo shares its experience with these 3D cams, but when Sony does it, it's trash talk.  Even when the guy says he "loves" the tech, but it just didn't bring anything new to what they were already developing.  One word, bias.

It is interedting to me that Nintendo felt there would be an issue with latency with these types of cams.  I know that all vids I have seen where someone has actually been playing Natal, there has been lag.  Of course, this was before they dropped the processor inside the cam, forcing devs to take up to 15% of the 360's resources.  We'll have to see if MS has found a way to work these issues out or if it has made them worse.

Either you wearing Sony glasses or me wearing Nintendo glasses, or both.

I remember reading that Nintendo passed the 3DV tech thingamanig because it lacked buttons.

I don't wear glasses.

"3DV showed off a camera that detected motion in 3D, and had voice recognition – but Iwata-San was unconvinced he could sell it at a Nintendo price point. He also had some worries around latency during gameplay."

Many sites, including this one, reported this story.  All citing the same Nintendo exec.  So, was Nintendo trash talking, as well?

Somehow Galaki will still condemn Sony passing on 3DV technology because it seemed limited, but Nintendo passing on 3DV technology for similar reasons will be just fine.

Let me guess, it's all in the difference between their 2 justifications.  Totally cool for Nintendo to be concerned about latency and price, but Sony is shit for being concerned about the camera not picking up some movements as well as they would have liked (even though to fix that, it'll involve raising the PRICE by requiring more development and hardware revision).  Oh oh, and the Sony guy's interview showed that Sony just couldn't come up with ideas for games!  Lulz!!  Nintendo would never have that problem!  (but Galaki's earlier statement about N being concerned about a lack of buttons would mean that N was having the same question: "what the fuck would we do with this?")

Granted, MS seems to have taken the tech to a new level since then, if I'm to believe Squilliam, and what the hell, why not.
