Uh oh! Although to be fair Sega have made the best use of the waggle machine so this could be ok. I guess.

Sega are finally gonna give their fans the Sonic game they've been craving, only you'll have to jog on the spot to get him moving...

"Both systems offer us so many opportunities to do great things with videogames..."
Excellent! "...I immediately now want to make another Virtua Tennis" /facepalm |

House of the Dead on the Wii is utterly awesome though, so they do make some good games!

Aye, Sega have done well with the Wii - HotD, MadWorld, Let's Tap, Mario & Sonic are all great fun (if not necessarily all directed at people who claim they are hardcore) and The Conduit sounds like it's nailed the controls if not the plot. So of any developer I'd expect them to do a good job with this.

i think the motion control sucess will come down more to 1st partys than 3rd party sega.dont think they were really pleased about it though as most of their wii games have been poor sellers regardless of quality

I too am a waggle cynic, but playing Wii Sports Resort with M+ shows that there is defintiely potential here. The Kendo (1:1 sword stuff) and Table Tennis games control so well that Ninty have to help the 3rd parties get their controls that good too. Main prob is laziness, i.e. I can't be arsed to stand up and play after work.

A proper Samba de Amigo sequel up first, please! With the PS3, the wands are the maracas. With Natal, you can use your own maracas.

"...I immediately now want to make another Virtua Tennis"
/facepalm Exactly. This is the company that made the Activator in the early '90s, had motion sensing peripherals along with mics and a camera for the Dreamcast, and make arcade machines that vary from cabinets that spin people 360 degrees to placing plastic blocks against a giant screen so sprites can climb on them... ...and the first thing that comes to mind is yet another Virtua Tennis? Just release a waggle patch for the existing half-dozen 360/PS3 versions! Sega's 'cleverest chaps' are the arcade R&D people that always gave Sega its edge, right? Except it seems Yu Suzuki was locked in a dark room ages ago and Sega's forgotten where they left him. |

No because the Wii became a fad and they are trying to tap into.
That is why both Sony and MS are going into this, the issue comes from the Wii selling HARDWARE but not so much software with the bunk of software sales being 1st party games (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games is the 10th highest selling game at 3.4 million). |
