There can only be one (more successful than the other).

But honestly speaking without their being favoritism towards a console, which motion control gaming system do you think will be more successful? I've heard most people say that Move is just Wii HD with supposedly better games (including 3rd party), while Natal is a newer and more advanced concept overall.

Or...either or... do you think the Wii will still dominate?

With the games that MS currently plans to release with Kinect, I would have say Move will dominate over Kinect. I do believe that Wii will still dominate in sales overall. But I think it's unfair to have it has an option here. I think it's topic of it's own. So I voted for the Move.

^ Yeah, I too think most likely Wii will still dominate, but that's why I added the multiple choice option, incase someone wanted to point that out.

It is waay to late to start thinking that either will prevent the Wii from dominating the market, but between the two? I'm going to have to say Move will succeed as it seems to aim to appeal to the more hardcore as well as casual gamers. I also like the idea that it is a sort of cross between Kinect and the Wii, and I think this works well and will help sales overall. However, I am prepared to be wrong, and so only time will tell I suppose. :/

both will fail. However, since this thread is about predicting winners between the two, I voted for move.

Kinect will be a short fad. I just can't see something as gimmicky as that to ever succeed. 360 games are more hardcore than wii gamers, so they won't be ignorant like a good portion of wii buyers. 360 gamers are also more social, so will undoubtedly ask friends who have already purchased kinect for an opinion on its level of fun. Not to mention, kinect is one expensive piece of plastic that only plays party games. Come on! At least the wii has mario and zelda and the like. What does Kinect have? Kinectimals? (sp?)

Move I believe will be more successful than kinect, but not enough to put a serious dent into nintendo's dominance. Move won't last long either.

I think that the Wii will still come out on top. After all it has been out for years, it's the cheapest console and there are more games available for it in comparison with the games that will be released with Kinect/Move.

To start I thought Move would be more successful, but now I'm starting to think they'll be more neck and neck. Kinect hasn't been priced but is rumoured at $150, whereas Move is only $50, so I thought Move would be more successful as it is cheaper, but then again, the Playstation 3 is more expensive than the 360 (in the UK at least) so that kinda counteracts the prices.
Its a hard shot to call, will most purchases be by people who already have 360s and PS3s? or will they be buying the consoles bundled with Kinect/Move? (in which case I still think Wii would be first choice)
If it is from people who already have the consoles (I probably think so), Microsoft have better chances as the 360 is the second best selling 7th gen console. I also think still bundled with Kinect the 360 would be cheaper than the PS3 bundled with Move & camera (unless kinect is more than $150)

I suppose we'll just wait and see =D

I'm going to have to say Move. It had a showcase of better games and it's based off of tech that has been proven to work well. But, no matter how you see it, Wii will still be the dominate console in this war.
