I'm skeptical of any complicated human interface device that doesn't provide feedback / resistance. For me, the lack of feedback is what made the Wiimote feel like a gimmick and I think it'll limit how game developers are able to succeed with Kinect.
- hessenwolf 16y agoThe wiimote did alright. You may be an anomaly.
- napierzaza 16y agoYou're so right, the Wii was totally a gimmick. How did it ever become a huge success for years now? Kinect must also be a gimmick, a break out successful gimmick.
- pierrefar 16y agoNo doubt you are part of a consumer segment that do not like the Wiimote and Kinect. The question is how big is your segment and what percentage of gamers the segment is. These two numbers will tell us whether there is a market opportunity for another device or this segment can be safely ignored.
- dannyr 16y agoGimmick? I think calling Wiimote/Kinect a gimmick shows lack of imagination. Motion-based UI opens a lot of possibilities that will extend beyond gaming.
