Listed since four years ago, the Nintendo Wii hit the market games industry - which is now estimated to be worth $ 20 billion and now anyone of all ages addicted to games ranging from tennis to bowling games with body movements and arm swings.

According to the data, Microsoft has sold 2.5 million units Kinect since November 4, while Sony has sold more than 4.1 million units Move to retailers since the release of Move on last 17 September. That's still far away from the Wii, the $ 200 console has sold more than 75 million units worldwide.

As quoted from BusinessWeek. "But very quickly, game publishers are going to have to expand beyond the fitness and dance games and deliver motion games that cater to the core video game buyer," predicts Peter Moore, president of EA Sports, which recently released different versions of the exercise program EA Sports Active 2 for the Kinect, Move and Wii.

"Microsoft has got to be looking at how to take Halo and Gears of War and have a Kinect experience" with those sci-fi combat games, he says. The same is true for Sony's Killzone and even a racing game like Gran Turismo, Moore says.

Sony has announced that sci-fi shooter game Killzone 3, out in February, will incorporate Move features, as will combat game SOCOM 4: U.S. Navy Seals, due later in 2011.
