There are issues.
Price -- $100 for Natal after $200-$300 for an Xbox 360 or $200 for a Wii (new user question, obviously if you own a 360, its a sunk cost).
Latency -- most people want LT 50 ms for on-line games, 100 ms will seem really slow to an experienced player (that is one-tenth of a second).
Software -- how many good games will there be? if just over one-third of Xbox 360 owners buy it (roughly the same percentage as who have Wii Balance Boards), you are looking at an audience of only 11-12M for a game. The WiiBB has few games with an install base of over 18M. Why would Natal be any different?
Uniqueness -- eliminating the control does not appeal to many gamers (especially the general demographic of the Xbox 360).
