Forums - Gaming Discussion - Wii Vitality Sensor will overshadow both Natal and Arc

trangentspree said:

 

  1. Motion controls on the Wii will have been available 4 years by the end of this year
  2. MotionPlus+ will have been available for a full year
  3. They have been supported by high-quality Nintendo software (high-quality Third-Party software too)
  4. Both 'casual' and 'hardcore' gamers will have titles to make them purchase MotionPlus+ well before the end of this year
  5. Arc is too close to an imitation of the Wiimote to stand out
  6. Natal will have significant problems with application because of its intangible-style interface
  7. Vitality Sensor, Arc and Natal are now all expected to release late 2010 (Arc has lost its major advantage)
  8. Vitality Sensor is the new technology this year and will stand out because of it
  9. As with 3., it will be supported by high-quality Nintendo software in its induction
  10. Nintendo knows how to advertise, and advertise well


1. is this a good thing? maybe people are getting bored of the wii and want to see newer motion technology. 3rds parties seem to be.

2. and there's still no good games for it, tigers woods and WSR are great and all but 2 games in 1 year isnt impressive.

3. i wouldnt say so, wiis 3rd party support is poor

4. but will they sell?

5. remember the original playstation pad? snes pad with 2 extra shoulder buttons. imitations sometimes go a long way

6. this is an assumption on your part, could just as easily be a success

7. true, arc has lost an advantage, but its an even playing field, vitality sensor isnt coming out earlier.

8. or crash and burn, the virtual boy was new technology....

9. yeah, wii fit 3.

10. that they do, but if the technology doesnt take off even nintendo wont be able to sell it.

Wii Vitality sensor

Notice that little hole in the bottom? That's probably the light sensor.

I KNOW what I can do with that thing;)



Gaming make me feel GOOD!

The Vitality Sensor is a joke right now. Have to see how they use it before we can tell if it's the next Wii Fit or the next Wii Music.

Who decided it was a joke?

Is it an April Fool's joke like this was?

No, just the regular kind of joke.

No, just the regular kind of joke.

So, definitely not this kind of joke then?

yeah, but natal has been a lot of work, it deserves to win....
but the vitality sensor will be bough anyway



I think the vitality senser would be better if it was part of the Wiiremote or nunchuck grip. I see it being a seperate part of the finger to be awkward.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

Yes.



Jokes apart, how are they even comparable?
