Whats the obvious part, because obviously I missed it?

We have 3+ years of evidence saying the market wanted motion controls, and you question it.  It blows my mind.

I'm questioning whether it was good for the industry or not.  I dont think it was.  Just because Nintendo is doing well doesnt mean the industry is doing well.  Making a console so completely different from the others made software developers have to focus on 2 completely different setups.  This was not a problem last gen with all 3 consoles being very similar, where only minor tweaks needed for each console.   Now I am not saying that Nintendo is completely to blame here,  alot of these developers made bad decisions with game development.  I am just saying that Nintendo can also be blamed despite their financial situation being as good as it is. 

How is giving the industry more customers than it's ever had before bad for them?

Well maybe for starters that the industry is hurting pretty bad right now?  

Dont get me wrong adding new customers are great, but are they the kind of customers that keep the industry alive and kicking by constantly supporting it and buying new games on a regular basis?   No, they arent
