[QUOTE="yo_foo"]I'm sick of people talking about how INNOVATIVE the Wiimote is. Sure it's different to what is available now but hardly innovative OR Original.

Let me get this straight. This is fact:

Sheep have been saying the Sixaxis is a rip off of the Wiimote. Now we all know that is incorrect. BUT Sheep are forgetting the most important thing. The Wiimote IS a rip off of Microsoft. Yes I'm sure you all know this. But do you choose to remember? The Freestyle Pro. Back in 1998.

But. How?

OK so you're all thinking "Old News. We've heard that before! Yo_Foo come up with something new..." Well I have. And I have formed this argument why the Wii will not beat the PS3. And most importantly - Why those folks that say the Wiimote is more innovative than the Sixaxis are WRONG!

First I'll state that the Sixaxis is actually different to the Wiimote. NOT a rip off of Nintendo's Rip off. The sixaxis uses six degrees of freedom. Something that has not been used with the Wiimote. Sony has a totally new idea than just regular motion sensing that nintendo has ripped off.

The unreleased game Lair will allow players to control a dragon wit hthe tilt of your wrists and allow the player to use their hands to pull back on the controller simulating pulling back on the Dragon's reins to pull the dragon up from a dive. Realistic yes? But it doesn't feel like your holding an uncomfortable remote control in your hand. Oh no. It feels like your holding a regular controller. But this is no regular controller. This is the SIXAXIS.

But alas Nintendo are basing their whole console around one unoriginal controller that, from past history shows us, gained popularity but soon fell to the limited opportunities available. Besisdes when the fad does where off, you can just turn of the PS3s Motion Sensing. But for the Wii, you'll have to buy a whole new set of controllers.

Those that say "History states..." History states this - Motion Sensing was a fad. And now its a fad again. But when people get over it, they'll focus on buying a console for their range of games, not because of a remote control.

Then people say "In Wiisports you can use the controller to swing a tennis racquet...etc." But this has nothing to do and does not prove that the Wiimote is more innovative than the Sixaxis because it only shows what developers have done with the technology, not the innovation of the technology.

Well, all of Nintendos so-called "controller fads" have become industry standards: such as D-pad, analog, shoulder buttons, 1st flawless wireless controller (wavebird), rumble. So take that for what you will, but rest assured that motion-sensing will become the standard.

[QUOTE="yo_foo"][QUOTE="General_X"][QUOTE="yo_foo"][QUOTE="voxware00"]i'm a little lost...
what makes the six axis superior to the wiimote, if the wiimote is not more innovative than the six axis

sony themselves said motion is in, and rumble is out
but the wiimote has rumble, and dual motion, as well as a pointer
not to mention two things we haven't seen in controllers before.. a speaker, and onboard avatar storage
plus a controller design we haven't seen on a successful console before, with a second controller plugging into the main.. 1 handed design of control that a few games take advantage of such as sonic, excite truck etc

anyways, two things i will give sixaxis credit for
a) ability to turn off motion and play normally
b) only standard rechargeable controller

Please, oh please tell me your a fakeboy, because Wiimote has much better motion-sensing control than sixaxis.

[QUOTE="yo_foo"][QUOTE="TNT_Slug"] Does the Sixaxis have an internal speaker? No? Then the Wiimote is more innovative. Thread owned, move along.Blackbond
