So you buy Natal to not use a controller, but then you have to buy a controller too?

So it's going to be $100 + a $30 controller?

We all know that the biggest weakness of Natal is the fact there are no buttons to press. However, I think Microsoft CAN introduce buttons in the future, by introducing a nunchuck-like accessory. You see, Natal tracks your hand movements, so if you have a nunchuck in your hand, Natal could calculate the position of your hand, and then determine where the nunchuck is or which position it is facing. Maybe it would help if the nunchuck had some kind of accelerometer, but it wouldn't need any complex technology if Natal already knows where your hards are. I am no expert in these things, but I'm sure Microsoft is capable enough to introduce a nunchuck to Natal:)

What are your thoughts on this? Do you think MS will do this one day? I know we all hate buying loads of accesories, but I think MS will do this once Natal gets more popular and the games require buttons. They won't introduce nunchuks straight away (they want the entry cost to be small), but once Natal becomes mainstream, a nunchuk accesory would be a great idea. Thoughts?

THATS ABSOLUTELY GENIU- oh wait...

It needs some form of controller to make some things work. No controller cant work with FPS at all. Ninja-Bear

Of course its a simple matter of creating it and coding...but im still not getting it.

[QUOTE="Cherokee_Jack"]I thought you could use the controller with Natal...?Jonas008

I think the biggest problem Natal has is moving from A to B. Lets just say you were playing Halo, how would you move forward? even if they introduced a nunchuck adaptor, wouldn't that get in the way if you were trying to strafe left but physically moving to the right. Or maybe I'm just not thinking clearly.reyad-u

It would completely ruin their "controllerless" moto (remember E3 09, the guy stated something like the best controller ever made = you :P). People would call fail on MS as well as accusing them to rip off the PS Move.
