Wii Music Copy?

Upon the creation of my last blog post, I came across something a little frighting with some rather interesting potential implications.

My search for the death of the Air Guitar lead me to stumble across this interesting new article from way back in December

http://www.joystiq.com/2006/12/18/wii-remote-air-guitar-wiitar/

Wii Air guitar and Drums? I'm well ware that Wii Music had a debut at E3 2006 and previously shown at TGS 2005, but I don't believe it was as complex as what these people  have done with the Wii mote an some PC coding.

Now fast-forward to E3 2008 and we hear about Wii Music. Up to this point it had seemed to be mostly touted as an orchestra simulator but now it seems to have branched out into a plathora of insturments.

What the coders at WiiLi.org have  done still goes way beyond what Nintendo has done (since Wii Music seems to only play out a predetermined song rather than allow someone to make their own music.), but it's still conceivable that there could be some overlap between the code posted here: http://www.wiili.org/forum/wiitar-30---(nunchuck-wiitar)-t450.html
and what Nintendo has done for Wii Music as of E3 2008.

At this point, I'm not sure who's been  inspiring whom, but I find it very creepy none the less.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9214d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
