Tecmo Koei president Kenji Matsubara has told Play that the company is interested in Sony's motion technology for games like Ninja Gaiden, but more research is needed to see if it would be a proper fit.

"I’m very interested in the new motion-control technology announced at E3, but we really need to know how responsive it is," said Matsubara. “I’m sure that for casual games these motion controls will be very popular, but for action games like Ninja Gaiden we need quick responses and if you're swinging your arms around like you’re using a sword you will soon be tired.

“Maybe we have to change the playing style and check the technology to see how quick it can be. So, at first it will be casual games and then maybe hardcore games and we have to prepare for that and provide the games to satisfy that playing style.”
