Its still a gimmick. Their comtemporaries cashed in on the casualization of gaming. Microsoft did pretty well for themselves as well. That gimmick is keeping them ahead of Sony in sales.

Not according to your definition it isn't. Perhaps you need a different definition of gimmick. I could care less if it makes a system sell better or not.

I didnt make a definition of a gimmick, I know what a gimmick is.

Ok. That isn't the definition you bolded as the definition in you above post. I like this definition much better because it's like your admitting that motion controls are "cleverly and originally devised and well suited to its purpose" as signified by the use of ingenious. I like that definition a lot actually.
