The wii does not use true motion contols as some would like to think, it judges if you are moving the contoller in a side to side motion or up and down, or if you move it fast, the same thing is true for the sixaxis, it has tilt and the buttons tell how hard you are pressing them, they even had pressure sensitive buttons on the dualshock controller.

If the wii2 can have true motion sensing controls then that would be different, but that would need lots of sensors or a camera. The PSeye had motion controls, i could truly move and see it on screen, the wii just makes you think it has true motion controls.

The wii is nothing truly amazing for this generation, if it never came out the PS2 would still be selling, the market would not fade away with the Playstation 3 or the xbox 360.

The wii is lots of fun, don't get me wrong with what i said above, i play it all the time with my sisters kids. It's a great system, but don't try to take it for more then what it is, it's just another console from Nintendo.

 Nintendo never billed them as anything other than accelerometers ...aka a device that senses motion.  I hear what you are saying but I mean its sort of nitpicky imo. So while, yes its not true motion capture, it is motion sensing and thus "motion controlled".  Whether I am being tricked into thinking it or not is irrelevent to me since I am already being asked to suspend reality and use my imagination in order to play the game.
