Note from Affineon : in the eventual release, there will be a “Simple” game mode – similar to Wii – where the speed of only one of the six degrees-of-freedom being tracked will be used.â€“ The game software would decide which direction and angle-of-launch of the ball, and only taking the swing speed of the tracker to effect the flight. This much simpler game mode would allow the user to play Wii-style simplified game. When he feels tired of simple golf, he could switch to realistic play through menu. Anyway a main aim of the exhibit is to demonstrate 6-DOF tracking capability in real-time, which Wii could not perform.

@ Tony – True! Plenty of plug and play TV games flirted with motion control. I think this project is trying to take it to another dimension… lierally. What I find the most fascinating is the curve between fun vs. completely. The Wii is on one end of the spectrum while this is on another.

Haven’t games like this existed long before the Wii? In some ways I feel like the Wii is just creating this need of replicating weird 90s arcade titles for some of these developers.
