The big draw? Innovative motion controls and a refined user friendly interface making games more accessible to the masses.

Many self proclaimed hardcore video gamers were instantly thrown off by Nintendo's new strategy, and even professional marketing analysts began to choose sides on which system would win the ensuing console war.
