The wiimote is not a gimmick...motion controls could be....but the wiimote is a controller...still a good gimmick, and it worked, congratulations to Nintendo for that :)

All motion controls are a gimmick. They are a novelty used to cash in on casuals. This just so happens to be the most profitable generation for gimmicks out of all the gimmicks Nintendo has tried over the years. The glove, Virtual boy and more speak for themselves.

No., not really. You sound like someone from 6 years ago. I would have thought that nearly 100 million units later, people would accept motion controls as a legitimate control scheme and not a mere gimmick. I would even venture to say that motion controls are the superior control scheme for some genres.

Most people are not interested in real gaming they are interested in novelties and gimmicks. Gimmicks have mass market appeal.
