LocoRoco creator thinks Sixaxis and Wiimote are pretty much the same
During an interview with LocoRoco creator Tsutomu Kouno, GamesIndustry.BIZ grilled him about his thoughts on the Wii. In being an employee for Sony, Kouno thinks that the Sixaxis and Wiimote are very similar, just that the Wiimote uses a pointing device where the Sixaxis is completely motion-sensing. "I don't have much interest in making a game for Wii," he says, adding that he's "already played Wii and checked out how the controller works." Personally, we think he's a bit nutty to not find the control scheme innovative. But, then again, all everyone seems to want to do with the Wiimote is make minigames, so maybe he's a bit jaded.
What do you guys think? Are the Wiimote and Sixaxis basically the same?
