I personally haven't seen much advantage in the Wiimote. Maybe I set it up wrong or something or maybe I have IR interference or maybe my TV size and viewing distance wasn't anticipated by Nintendo. In any case to me the Wiimote is just a less reliable mouse and if the next generation perfects the controller then I wouldn't mind it. However as it exists right now it is flawed and I can attest to the flaws because it doesn't work perfectly out of the box. However the current console controllers on the Xbox 360 and PS3 are certainly good enough. They do the job which is asked of them and they work on all the major genres you see on consoles today.

I never play online multiplayer, its too stressful for me.

 

Well basically, imagine the Wiimote is like a keyboard and mouse. Then imagine the keyboard can fit in your hand, and you dont have to put up with the hassle of using wasd (or, God forbid, using the arrows to turn) and then imagine the keyboard can also be used as a mouse.

 

What do you mean by less reliable?

Hassle? What are you talking about? Dont get me wrong I always hated the keyboard/mouse combo for most the games I played, but for FPSs, its the perfect combo. The Wiimote failed misserably to replace it, and I doubt that Kinect or Move will fare any batter. 

 

Its simply the perfect combo for FPSs and RTSs, and thats that. No matter how hard you try to convince anyone here, this combo is used and will be used for years when it comes to professional FPS gaming

 

 

OT: they hung themselves, thats why. They had a great e3, all the momentum they wanted, all they needed was this TGS to prove that the Wii is not dead 3rd partie wise, and that it still has some fighting chance left in Japan... they failed at it. It won the console war, true, and neither HD console has even a remote chance to take it over hardware or software shipment wise. 

The problem is that the majority of the gaming industry is made up by 3rd parties. They shifted now almost entirely towards the HD twins ( with exceptions like DQX or Goldeneye) so of course that the gaming media will mostly write about the PS360. And lets dont forget, bot HD consoles are also getting brand new add-ons, while there is still no news about the vitality sensor...
