Maybe it's just my bad english, but that article seems misleading.
As far as I understand, this is all about gyroscope-based motion controls - which is the technology found in the Wii Motion Plus addon.
The normal Wii Remote uses accelerometers instead, a technology that quickly became so popular and successful for games that nowadays it's impossible to buy a smartphone or tablet without.
If Microsoft really hadn't realized the potential of that technology, that would be hilarious.
