Price drop happens the day competitor's motion controls are released.
I'm referring to NA/Europe of course, no idea about Nintendo Japan's strategy.

It would be far more accurate to say "price drop happens the day competitors' compelling software that utilizes motion controls are released"--coming out with motion controls, as little more than a 'me too' gesture, will have little-to-no-effect on Wii and that, I wager, is what keeps the execs at Sony and MS up at night. (For example, coming out with 'MS HD Sports' or 'Sony Motion Control Olympics' isn't going to get the job done but I'd bet staggering sums of money that that is about as creative as the execs at both Sony and MS will be: "we'll just clone Wii Sports and throw in HD graphics and we'll win!!")

Take a look at every million selling Carnival Games, Olympics, Wii Sports, etc, and that is exactly what natal and psmote will replicate. The problem is its already been done successfully years earlier and the mainstream awareness of where these games actually are isn't on PS or MS platforms, its never been.

That's exactly my point: they expect to re-capture lighting in a bottle and do so at their own peril when they should be trying to find new ways to exploit the technology rather than making imitators of what has already come before.
