That may be bad from a hardcore player's view, but from a CASUAL player's view, it means those games weren't as fun without the Wiimote. You just pressed buttons, but didn't feel like you were actually in the game. That's why the Wiimote changes everything.

 

The Wiimote does not put you in the game, it allows you to mimic real motions. The Eyetoy (released years before the Wii) put you "in" the game.

The Eye will do the same exact thing, with voice commands. Hmm...motion sensing and 6-axis...interesting, huh?
