    How is badminton fun on a PS3 or Xbox360? I think button pushing days are so yesterYear [my new spelling?]. Only the Wii has the Wiimote to make it cool.

    Wiimote is so cool.. Keyobards and mouses, and averything else are so YesertYear... OMG..

    this is just another input device.. (just as the analog steering-wheel for car games..

    So you think Wii, is the only console who will have motion controls.. Yea.. right :cool:

    Hm...it seems to be largely sponsored by Adidas or something...all the apparel and shoes are Adidas. Even look at the shoes for badminton....they are all wearing Adidas Stabil 6 from what I can see in the screenshots. Same shoes I wear....no Yonex to be seen. That is ironic because the Stabil shoes are marketed as squash shoes...all the players in the badminton game are wearing squash shoe lol.

    TBH, Wii control is a bit strange. You dont really need to make a big motion, a short sharp movement is far more effective. Almost like they are overestimating the duration of acceleration (or acceleration) somehow.

    What I want to know is if they'll have online play. It'd be amazing for forum members to be able to challenge one another.

    Good luck getting it for that price nowaways;
    The demand is so much more than the supply that within hours of shipment to the big stores, every single unit is sold out.

    Okay for everyone who was wondering why adidas.

    Its because Hudson used to have sports game that is sponsored by adidas

    so thats why they kept it that way and kept it to adidas first hand , and if they ever made a badminton game for ps3 , xbox or anything it will be way different , first of all playing wise , the mashing of buttons than active control... and also xbox or ps3 will be also way different BECAUSE they have different graphic system , for a person like me i have every system thats out and also Wii is made for family like active games and ps3 is for hardcore gamers so is xbox =P hehe. have you guys ever played the Prince of tennis DS game ? it has shitty graphics but its acctually really damn fun to freaing play , since yopu get all the moves and everything :)

    Need anyhelp with gaming stuff give me a shout =)
