And while Nintendo tried to market their Wiimote add-on Motion Plus at E3 as the next step forward in waggle gaming, Microsoft and Sony smashed their hopes with ambitious plans of their own. So now the question that will be debated long into the foreseeable future is which of the two technologies reigns supreme. We'll try to answer that question as best it can be with what little we've seen of both so far.
