Shane Kim not a believer in “me too” Wii controller idea

For the umpteenth time, Microsoft’s Shane Kim was approached with questions in regards to a Wiimote-like controller for the Xbox 360. In a sense, Kim indirectly answered the question, and noted, “…We have a lot of research and development going on across the entire program, not just hardware but in software obviously and content. And in the area of hardware, we’re looking at a whole bunch of different technology areas. I don’t think that it would be smart for us to come out to try and try to do just what they [Nintendo] do. I think that just to do a ‘me too’ thing would not be very successful.” So, the possibility of a controller akin to that of the Wii remote remains. However if one does release, it won’t be exactly the same product.
