Personally I don't believe it will be 29%. More like 20% will skip next gen of consoles.

I also think that people have the wrong idea what the Wii control is all about. Maybe in a generation or two people will catch on. The simple truth to the Wii Remote is that it's massive amount of input is intuitive. Yes many games seriously abuse the motion for waggle, but this is form of bad game design perpetuated by classic controllers. Pressing "A" button for consecutive hits is an abstraction. Taking a game like SW:Clone Wars for the Wii offered intuitive directional strikes. The game had a poor fighting engine, but it showed that the controls potentially could be more than waggle. The attacking didn't add any complexity to the controls; which doing it on a classic controller would have. In comparison it would take 5 distinct buttons to handle the same directional striking system. The game used simple control that border on waggle, but it wasn't waggle because the control had meaning. Take a game like Zelda or Naruto then the game was an atrocious waggle fest.

Wii Remote offers a more intuitive input without increasing the complexity of the controller. It is not the controller fault for poor implementation. I have found classic style games with good use do not increase the effort of gaming. They are still relaxing and pretty darn enjoyable.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
