| | | Microsoft Building A Wii-Mote For The XBox360?
Engadget is reporting that Microsoft is rumored to be working on a Nintendo Wii-like remote for the XBox360. Have a look at what they're saying. Quote: |
Alright, take this one with a huge grain of salt, but MTV News is reporting that Microsoft is secretly developing a Wiimote-like motion controller for the Xbox 360. The source says that the new unit has been under development since August, and that a new unified interface is being developed by Rare, which has missed a few deadlines. The idea is to match and exceed the capabilities of the Wiimote, so the controller reportedly features four face buttons, an analog stick, a microphone, and possibly integration with the Xbox Live Vision Camera. However, it doesn't seem like things are going all that smoothly -- the source says the project is a "colossal clusterf***," and that Microsoft is scrambling to figure out how to get the thing out by the end of the year.

| | | wtf is that thing? I could make a better drawing of a controller in 6th grade. MS Paint FTW! At least they're using their own tools to do the drafting for this product.

| | | that's not any kind of official drawing, as Microsoft has been "secretly" building the new remote. MTV keeps saying that's a developer source drawing, which could simply mean a developer of candy bars who gives freebies out to a R&D guy at Microsoft drew up a drawing based on a conversation over a Kit/Kat.
If you have the time, you should open up MS Word and pwn this drawing, where it looks like it originated.
