I'll stop thinking of Move (god, I love that name) as only a Nintendo Copy when Sony actually does something with it that ISN'T copying Nintendo.

There's a lot of potential here. Let's just hope there are some people at Sony smart enough to exploit it.

"It's implementation into the market is what makes it a "me too" product."

that's like saying every automobile is a copy of every other automobile is a Mii Too product...

"Waiting to see how your competitor performs and then adding what is making them successful to your system is exactly what makes it a "me too" product. "

if that's a Mii Too product there is quite a bit of Mii Too product's out there than..lol

yea my PC has a dvd burner and HP releases a DVD burner for their PC's that make's their PC a Mii Too huh..

I'll say what you perfectly know my friend:

Baaaaack in 2007, the Wii was a fad. A joke. LOL. An underdog system that would sell greatly just for one year (acording to Michael Pachter, Microsoft and Sony) and then all of us would jump aboard the all mighty, CELL powered PS3, which costed 600$.

So Sony just bashed Wiimote, because they were not going that route, who's gonna copy the fad? The "Kiddy" system?

Back in 2008, Nintendo is still butt rapping Sony in hardware and software sales, and maybe in mid 2008 was probably when they started working on PS Move, implementing old technology they may have patented for Eye toy, because the "kiddy" system was set to be the market leader for this gen. Motion controls were what defines a new gen system, not graphics, and Sony was aware of that.

So , in E3 2009, one year later, they show off a wiimote rip off, that resembles a sex toy for many people on the internets, and has amazingly great accuracy for a beta build of the device - something equivalent to wii motion plus.

In this time, they're yet to make a nunchuk rip off, because they believe that holding a PS3 controller alongside a wand would please gamers, as shown in a RE5 Special Demo for the PS Move. But thing is, it didn't please no one. They needed to copy the nunchuk too.

It was recently, that Sony finally unveiled the full set. A nice Wiimote and Nunchuk imitation, using some nice Sony tech they already had from Eye Toy development, it works the same as the Wiimote but using different method. Pretty clever.

Now, the world is still to know if Sony's Nunchuk will have motion sensors or not, because it is a rushed peripheral, yet in development, not a project from 2005.

This, is pretty much what happened :)

it already does in even some of their pre beta software something the Wii cannot do. just because the camera allows the Move to do thing's the Wii cannot due to the Wii does not have a camera. but the Wii may be able to do it with a camera of their own. we will have to see.

this

an like i just stated the hatred for some companies fit certain gamer's to a tee.

you can think what you want but no proof will change your mind you have already made up your mind.

sony kind of deserves the hate they´ve gotten cause they bashed the wii so much in the past treating it like a fad.

"I think the notion of that controller is a non-trivial point that you’ve brought up, that control and that familiarity is like comfort food - from my perspective, we lead, we don’t follow. And as a brand, Nintendo’s got their thing, and we’re not trying to get the senior citizen group to get into gaming"

", but we’d never consider iterating off of existing competitive technology - because we think that’s a fad and that’s not the way we approach product development. It’s not the way we approach the marketing or the branding of PlayStation."

and now they make move.
hypocrites :p

i think that sony has lost the casual gamers this gen, them and ms are making move and natal to appear to a diffrent crowd.

move did copy nintendo so why do people care about move and why should their be hype. well considering the ps3 is a system which is for a diffrent type of gamers, il wonder how they will use move, already games such as re5 heavy rain and socom 4 have or will have compateibility with move. mario games dont make much use of the wii mote( it is not used but the game doesnt depend on it). i would be really interested to see oblivion with move.

natal and move are a step into the future for both companies. since games and hardware has become so expensive i think that the next console from either ms or sony will come in a long time.

and that is why ps3 is getting a 3d update, and one of the main reasons for the apperence of natal and move, to prolonge the life time of the consoles. i'm sure that sony and ms will release their next gen console 2-3 years after nintendo releases their, considering they are technologically more advanced then the wii they can still compete and with new ip's coming up they can hold on.

that will cause for the launch price of the next ps and xbox to smaller then a launch price it wold have had with an earlier release by 2-3 years. selling more consoles and potentially making the gap beetween 2nd and 1st smaller

but on the same token they all do. but some gamer's only single out one company. and call them worse than the other's.

just because some PR spout's off something mean's pretty much just someone at the company get's asked a question by the Media to elicit a negative response because it creates drama an more hit's to their web site.

many people on the street would most likely never even seen that statement in printed new's and where was it released?

that's right online.

so PR is PR that's what their paid to do. you can expect something like this from all the companies. not just Sony!

What I said is proof. Since the SNES times Sony has been copying Nintendo controllers, this is no surprise.

I don't know if you haven't noticed yet, but only you and another couple guys keep bragging about it not being a wiimote rip off. Serisouly dude, it only makes you a more serious person just to get over and admit it, like many Sony fans already did.

Does that fact stops you from enjoying such a device? Hell no, despite coming 4 years later, I think it will be an awesome experience for whoever hasn't yet had a Wii. Even for Wii owners, there may be something to look at, some epic game for it that differs a lot from what the Wii has served.

Seriously, your debating skills are awesome, you're only a die hard Sony fan.

You make me remember those Nintendo fans (very few) that keep saying the Wii's online is awesome and they don't need something like Live, while everybody knows that an online service on the Wii like Xbox Live would be a dream. (If free, but this is already my own opinion)
