The Nintendo Wii and Motion Controls
Recommended Videos
The Wii helped bring gaming into the mainstream like nothing before it, and its motion control gimmick caught on like wildfire. Developers flooded onto the console bringing out title after title, while Sony and Microsoft both quickly tried to follow suit with their own motion control devices.
At the time, the Wii was something so novel, and once again Nintendo had brought a unique spin on how we play our games. How many of us remember swinging around a Wii Remote as a tennis club? Of course, the Wii may not have ultimately been the best implementation of motion controls we’ve seen, but it definitely popularized the idea, and changed the landscape of gaming.
