Let me explain how I see it, not necessarily how others see it.

My problem with the Wii initially was the lack of precision. The new controls came out of nowhere, wii sports was basically a tech demo for the controls, and the controls in my view were not precise enough. All things that for me made the wii motion controls gimmicky.

Fast foward quite a bit. Most of the games on the Wii are bad bad bad. The controls continue to not be precise enough, allow you waggle instead of actually due the true motion, and feel like they are tacked on to the game instead of used when necessary and not otherwise.

So Nintendo releases motion plus. Finally there is hope. I can even put aside that most of their FPS are shooters on rails. There is a window here that may at least get some of us HD gamers to enjoy NINTENDO again. But that all depends on if they can get 3rd party developers to stop making crap and start making good games with good controls.

As to your points about SONY and MS motion controls.

1. I disagree with MontanaHatchet. It's not about being fickle. It's about throwing some thing new at us traditional control gamers and then not doing that thing very well.

2. Here is where I start to agree with MontanaHatchet. There are plenty of new people to grab up. Given the size of the previous generation. And if Nintendo is making millions of new gamers. There is still a possible doubling or tripling of size for the current generation.

I don't have time to go into the rest.
