The image above, found on Engadget.com, is a patent sketch released by Sony earlier today.
The sketch depicts a “Wii-U Esque” style controller that Sony, isn’t necessarily going to create,
but has plans to develop further. As you can see, there aren't many details, as I'm sure
Sony is keeping as discreet as possible for now.

Sony describes it as a “position-dependent gaming, 3-D controller, and handheld as a remote that
would act as the ‘input to a video game’.” Essentially, it’s a controller. Personally, I have no clue
how to describe what I see in the picture. If this idea decides to fruition, surely we'll know more in
the future, but as of now there isn’t any other information besides this.

In my thoughts, with rumors of a PS4 being released sometime in the future, surely Sony is going to try and
expand the horizons of the “controller” in order to make a profit. With the success of the first Wii and Kinect,
and their not so successful iteration of motion-gaming with the Move (in comparison to the Wii and Kinect)
Sony is likely to hop onto the motion-gaming band wagon, again, and give this a second shot.

Hopefully with this speculated “controller”, Sony can knock this one out of the park and create something different
that will spark an even greater interest in the motion-gaming area. If you want to read the whole article, you

Do you guys think that Sony can compete with the Wii-U or Kinect? Or will Sony's Round 2 of motion-controllers
simply get shrugged off? Let me know what you think about this.

I think at this point Sony's time would be better spent worrying about this on the next PlayStation model which NEEDS to be updated... but yeah I heard about a patent coming up with this type of tech from Sony awhile ago. But yeah I see no issue with Sony competing directly with Nintendo's Wii-U and Microsquash's Kinect technology and believe Sony can do a smoother job of it.

Fu*king huge ass controller...
Seems awkward to hold...

I have held bigger things than that in my hands, was very awkward when I just grabbed it :carling:, talking about my LCD tv

Hahaha... No ...
Btw, its Held* , not Holded :dumb:

Thats what I put, reread the post
Problem gramma nazi? :carling:

I agree :y: As long as things are smooth and bug free
(well, as minimally as possible in the beginning because there's
always going to be release bugs and what not) then I'll be a strong
supporter of this. I'll probably even buy it too. I'm getting a tad bored of
video games and hopefully this would spark something interesting for me.



Keep in mind this is just a sketch. I'm not sure how it will look in the end, but
lets pray that its not that big. No pun intended guys

haha HUGE ass gameboy in his left robotic hand and an ak74u in the other

I think Sony are going to see how the Wii-U does, and if it succeeds, they have an idea to develop. If it fails, no harm done.

The bigger the better... That's what she said ;0
