Project Natal made for Wii first ?

LiveWii : "Remember last year, when one man talked about head tracking and other projects he worked on with the help of the Wiimote. His name was Johnny Chung Lee. Now, he's simple the man who will bring Project Natal to XBox 360. How do we know that ? Just read further."

its guite probable, microsoft did just buy the company that created the technology.

PinkUni6204d ago

having camera controlled games was inevitable

saying one person is the reason for a whole line of videogame styles is a whole lot of bullshit

i mean, it started with the eyetoy, and before that it was something else.

its just writer trying to get people to read their stories.

Vavoom6204d ago

Where was the camera in the wii version and where is the wand in the microsoft version?

Icecold336203d ago (Edited 6203d ago )

Wow Vavoom, it only took them 2 hours to rob you of a bubble. Can anyone around here have an opinion? This place is getting rediculous!

Bubbles up vavoom.

PS looks like Casey... logged on with all 20 of his accounts and made you pay for your previous comment...lol

Wow, who would have known, hopefully Chung lee gets to do more, the guy has a thing for creating gold out of poop, and backwards-engineering literarely.

Hudahudahuda6204d ago

Why do they call it a 360?

Because when you see it, you turn around and BAM! There it is!

air16204d ago (Edited 6204d ago )

lmfao

like that chef, BAM!

edit......................... ... @bosch

ummm, i thought a full circle was a 360?

and a half circle is a 180? 180 plus 180 = 360 no?

boy i hope im right cause ill look so dumb..

NeoBasch6204d ago

lol

hate to ruin your joke, but that'd only be a 180

close enough. thanks for the laugh. <3

He failed 4th Grade Math. That'll teach you to correct someone, when you don't know what the hell you're talking about yourself. :D

NeoBasch6203d ago (Edited 6203d ago )

Oh, I'm sorry, I misunderstood the joke. I took it as turn around 180 and there it is again, not completely turn around in a circle. As in Nintendo got the ball rolling, but the moment you turn around (the opposite direction... BAM! Microsoft's right there; ready and willing. :D

Whatever, the joke is funny regardless. lol

Must have been a reason Nintendo didn't bite. Hmmm..food for thought

giovonni6204d ago

they never truly bite or truly gamble the only real gamble they took was with the Wii. With Nintendo being late to damn near every new console technology party. out of maybe two concrete, after the super nintendo, tecs nintendo paved the way for analog sticks and motion Nintendo always comes into a new generation that keeps them from truly surpassing its competition. Now if Natal takes off and it is the next thing to sliced bread nintendo should kick it self for not taking the chance in the first place

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

jznrpg37d ago

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Smellsforfree37d ago

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai37d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
