The Wii-Mote didn't revolutionize anything either, its a gimmick that will be replaced when Nintendo finds something more shiny to sell. The good old controller was designed for console gaming in mind, it simply is the best way to controle a console game. The Wii-Mote wasnt designed to work better for consoles, it was designed to do something else so that Nintendo didnt have to fight the same battle as Sony and Microsoft (which they lossed to both lastgen) and it worked. So I agree with Insomniac although my reasons are different, gaming politics forbid them from really giving an answer.
