While I personally dont care for all of the motion controlls and think they are a waste of time when they could be making games for a controller that works well already.

Your article is wrong, and if Sony and Microsoft wanted their project to succeed they can make them do so by marketing and making games that people want that require the controls. But as I said I would personally rather that not happen.

- It won't sell good enough: Majority of the public which already got a PS3 or 360 have been claiming since Wii's launch that Motion Control doesn't please them, feels gimmick and classic controllers remain the most reliable control scheme. So that being known for 3 years its obvious that only a small portion from the userbase from both consoles is jumping into the new experience as it feels so or even more gimmick than the Wii controls and that's exactly what the majority of them do not want. There's almost no market for the existing audience.

 

- It appeals to the Casual market already monopolized by Nintendo: Wii came along, had a huge success and it is known for its controls and for Wii Sports. The mark of this generation and the most sold game worldwide since ever. Whatever that resembles to the Wiimote will instantly get compared to it and seen like something similar and not a new thing. Just like any touchscreen phone nowadays " oh! seems like the iPhone" instead of being just another phone with touchscreen. So conquering new casual market with their approaches will be hard.
