    • This is the Tokyo Game Show, not E3. I expect all kinds of weirdness out of the Japanese game developers. They seem to enjoy these kinds of things in games. Add a dating simulator, and you've got yourself a guaranteed seller.

    Anyhow, they say they are using some type of bar near the Tv (top, bottom, somewhere on the side, doesn't matter) to track the controllers via Bluetooth.

This isn't any light gun based technology, so the type of TV won't matter.
