Ubisoft sides with Nintendo 3DS over Move and Kinect


Neither Sony nor Microsoft have yet launched their new motion control systems – Move and Kinect respectively – but one major videogame publisher has already weighed in with which platform it thinks will win the impending battle of new gameplay technology... siding firmly with the Nintendo 3DS.

Specifically, while Ubisoft's European managing director Alain Corre believes the 3DS has an extremely bright future ahead of it, he thinks the years ahead will probably not be so bright for Move or Kinect.

“[Move and Kinect] are good extensions and will certainly ensure that some new casual buyers are secured, which is good for Microsoft and Sony since the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 do not address this target group yet,” he offered in a translated PlanetDS.de report.

However, when asked whether Nintendo's rivals have created motion-control platforms capable of extending the longevity of their respective hardware platforms, Corre answered by simply saying: “I think not.”

Ubisoft's viewpoints regarding the future of gaming follow on from similar praise legendary game developer Warren Spector (Epic Mickey, Deus Ex) lavished upon Nintendo's glasses-free stereoscopic 3D console technology during a recent Gamescom chat with Game Informer.
