| Hus said: Yep, i always "lol" when nintendos innovation is mentioned. Nice myth and usefull but not very honest. Not that it matters, does any one care what Ford did with the model T with Toyota kicking the crap out of everyone now. |
What you said about Toyota is exactly the point. There's a huge difference between invention and innovation.
didn't Nintendo have the Powerglove back in the NES days? And didn't Microsoft have a motion sensing controller for the pc many years before that?
What's important is not the fact Nintendo invented it all, the idea was in the air for years and years and we all know that...
It's the fact they took the RISK to introduce something new (AND well thought)... and with that "new" tech, a brand new generation of games build around it... exact same thing for DS...
Not being conservative is always a challenge, and we all can see how they already won that (these) challenge(s)... DS and Wii are great consoles, and Iwata is a great president, who took risks that are now paying...
That's the reason why with these two products ONLY, Nintendo became the 4th largest company in Japan, while Sony (with many many more products out there) isn't even in the top 10 anymore...

Is it just me or does that tennis game look better then anything on the wii, i think it does.

IMO, whatever the fun i had / have with Wii sport, RE4 Wii version is the best experience on Wii (even better than Zelda)
Interesting, I didn't know this. I did know there have been virtual reality games like tennis (motion sensing tennis racket) and boxing (motion sensing boxing gloves) well before that.
Entroper said it best, there is a difference between invention and innovation.
Nintendo obviously did not invent motion-detective technology. But they absolutely innovated its usability on a grand scale.

Am I the only person who noticed that the guy in the first video is like the perfect stereotype for 'nerd' ?
Anyways, as others have mentioned, Motion Technology has been around for a while.. it is like people complaining that the DS isn't innovative in gaming because PDA's had used them for years before

You seriously need to think before you post. I think this is the 3rd time now you have posted clear cut troll/flamebait posts.
