I looked back in the post and couldn't find it, but someone was basically saying people don't want to hold their arms up because it would get very tiring. That was my issue with the Wii! With a lot of games you have to continually point your arm right at the TV and it gets old fast. Look at regular controller posture, your arms are relaxed and its comfortable to play for extended periods. Also like it was said people want to sit on their couch or lay in bed and play most games. When I was playing Twilight Princess I just ended up laying in bed with the controller propped up to roughly aim at the screen and the whole thing felt awkward. I realize that's not the way you are supposed to play Wii.
I could care less about this technology for the 360. That said I do find it funny that the Wii fans who praise motion control are all coming out of the wood work to say "this is stupid and it won't work." That's very hypocritical. Everything can be improved upon. I'm not even saying this gesture tech is an improvement but the point remains, if Nintendo can be successful with this type of thing so can Sony or Microsoft. I personally wish the entire world would wake up from motion controls like it was a bad dream, leave controllers the way they are and focus on improving the games themselves not their interfaces. If we get to a point where you can't just pick up a controller and relax on the couch while you game, I'll quit buying new systems at that point.
