E3: Sony steals from Nintendo

May 9th, 2006
The PlayStation 3 controller was shows yesterday. It featured a built-in tilt sensor that picks up on the movement of the controller. It was demonstrated with Warhawk, a futuristc flying game and it didn’t work that good. There were no cheers from the crowd, but thats probably because everyone felt like they completely ripped off Nintendo’s idea. And they did. They even had the nerves to call it “their innovation”.
What did Nintendo say last year? That they didn’t reveal the controller for their upcoming console because other companies would steal it. Exactly what happened. Sony waited for Nintendo to show theirs. The “boomerang” was just a hoax.
