You know, Lupus makes a good point. This is more a Sony fanboy vs. Nintendo fanboy topic than a descussion about the new information on the PS3. I, personally, don't like it. It is childish.
My opinion, are the two ideas similar? Yes. Are the ideas new? No. Did Sony steal Nintendo's idea? To me, no. Nintendo did not come up with the motion sensor. They took a technology and incorperated it into a gaming system. Just because Nintendo announced it first, and possible implimented it first, doesn't mean no one can use that concept. Besides, the Wii controller has more motion functionality than just side to side motion, and that more functionality keeps it original and new. Sony is just using a technology as it is.
That is my view. Am I getting a Wii? Yes. Am I getting a PS3? No. That isn't because I'm a fanboy of Nintendo, it is because I don't feel it is anything too new. I feel it is just an upgrade. Where as Nintendo and Microsoft are using new ideas.
That is my two cents.
