LOL it look Wii&PS3 are in trouble.

 

6.  The Wii remote

 

The judging panel assessed the Wii remote as an endangered gadget, along with the more traditional console controllers.

The hands-free, camera-based motion control of Project Natal could make plastic controllers obsolete, they say. We're not so convinced that Natal, pitched so far as an alternative or supplement to the Xbox 360's control pad, is going to spell doom for the console controller. And let's not forget the 56 million Wiis still going strong around the world.

The Wii remote will be fine, Sony Wand should be the one on the list lol.

Wow, not a chance. People complain about lack of control with the wii remote for "core" games....no way natal, with most likely less finite control than the wii remote, could replace not only both, but something the wii remote couldnt total replace.

All of these news postings about natal already, form PS to this may be a double edges sword. With all of this natal is the savior press going around already its going to put a hell of a lot of pressure on MSFT to deliver a flawless device.



Huh.

Well, MSN is usually right about these things. Best not to fight this.

Wii remote will be fine for now and the near future.

NATAL and WAND are a bit of uncertainties around them

I dont think, natal is going to be just an extra for control, very few games are able to be controlled only with natal so... It s going to be as wii fit for wii =P
