The moment Nintendo's creative designers released the Nintendo wii it took the video gaming community by storm. It exposed the field of computer entertainment to absolutely everyone. By means of holding a trouble-free controller and swinging it like a tennis racket you were able to instantly play tennis games on the Nintendo wii console. There were absolutely no complex control keys to understand or even unusual joystick movements which generally meant that it was simply reachable to new video game enthusiasts, both young and old. At present, Microsofts unique Kinect games platform takes things even further mainly because now there is absolutely no controller in any way!
The actual Nintendo Wii was innovative but Microsoft Kinect takes things a little more forward. Just like the Nintendo wii console, Kinect utilizes a scanning unit that is placed over your TV. The main difference is though; Kinect scans your whole body and picks up your own actions, which translates to mean there is no need to actually carry a controller in your own hand.
