MotionPlus Not Nintendo Exclusive, Other Parties Interested

Posted by x3sphere at August 8, 2008, 12:45 pm


InvenSense’s MotionPlus technology is not exclusive to Nintendo, company exec Joe Virginia revealed in a recent interview with Eurogamer. As you’d expect, other parties are taking interest in licensing the tech, but Joe of course isn’t saying who:

I can’t get into details about other folks that are interested in this technology, but as you might imagine of course there is more interest out there.

Considering Sony and Microsoft are both heavily rumored to be testing the waters in motion control, we have little doubt that they are interested in MotionPlus tech. Whether they’ll actually end up using it or not is an entirely different matter.
