Sony's wand on the PS2

Sony's wand in action on the PS2 using the EyeToy. This was a tech demo, it was never released.

A lot of people like to say Sony ripped off the Wii with the Playstation move but the fact of the matter is, Sony had the idea first, Nintendo was just the first to get it out there.

If Sony was REALLY working on this motion control before the development of Wii, then WHY was Wii released FOUR YEARS before PS Move?

Sony abandoned the technology and they were not going to release this, but after the success of Wii, they released it to try and cash in on the success of Wii.

So, yes, Sony did copy Wii.

no no no, Has everyone forgot the power glove, Nintendo got there idea for the wii mote from there power glove, also in the 80's nintendo had a controller free piece of technology like the kinect I forgot the name, basically the ps move has always copied nintendo

@ilorvygjm I never said Nintendo was the first to do these, just that they were before Sony. And if you would actually read the whole thing, so would see that I said these are arguments that DON'T WORK!

@jabryant0125 nintendo wasn't the first to have a console for tv or the first to have a console with buttons ( or analogs ) and the last point was just plain retarded

[jabryant0125]

@ilorvygjm You argument is way, way, way to broad. Some of those aren't even right. Sony copied Nintendo by creating a console for use on a home TV. Sony copied Nintendo by putting buttons on a controller. Sony copied Nintendo by EXISTING. These just don't work as valid arguments.

@thedragonb0y *Who copied WHOM

@Clomats Look at my argument again.

[potsiiscool]

@JesseJROCK if someone thinks that the ps move isn't a wii copy then not even an argument as convincing as yours will change their minds
