    Will competitors copy Nintendo eventually?

    Hey i was thinking, do u reckon that if the wii sells really well (which i know it will ) Do u think that Playstation and XBOX will also bring in the similar type of playing games, in that i mean by relying on motion sensors and the whole 'pointing' thing on making their controllers?

    Hmm.. I think they will and if they don't, they'll try and make their own revolution of controller or somethin.. but I really don't know, it might persuade them into taking more risks etc..

    I'm pretty sure the PS3 controller already has motion sensing (to a more limited extent than the Wii). Anyway, I'm not sure Sony or Microsoft are going to give up the tried and tested joypad in favour of remotes just yet, but if the Wii is successful they might want to develop something similar (not too similar though, or they risk being sued).

    I read somewhere that Microsoft were testing the idea of motion sensor controllers, but reportidly, the participants found they felt tired after using it. I will provide a link when I find one.
    1. Something interesting
    2. More intrigue

    Also, Sony has the whole "Six degrees of Freedom" that was announced at E3.

    All in all, I think (to at least a small extent), everyone is trying to cash in on the idea. (I doubt we would have seen the tests being done with either the 360 or PS3 had it not been for the Wiimote being announced last year.
