    Why sill using hand controllers?
    I believe this’d be a nice way to play in the next gen of videogames:
    Next generation Wii will not need controllers says Intel Justin Rattner, “We imagine some future generation of [Nintendo's] Wii won’t have hand controllers”, Rattner said. Rattner also suggested that camera technology using sensors around a room to detect player movement would replace the hand controllers. He explained: “You just set up the cameras around the room and wave your hand like you’re playing tennis”.
