motion controls, will they ever appeal to the "core" gamers?

Yes they can!

Just imagine a proper light saber game with M+ or Sixense.

People seem to forget that core gamers were pretty optimistic about this stuff during the Wii early years. But then the content never came, and industry propaganda and the content that was there hammered the terms 'motion controls' and 'casual' together.

Zelda SS had the chance to change that, but Aonuma's incompetence ruined it.

I agree with this, but it was more than just content the controller itself, was terribly inaccurate so it didnt even deliver on its promise, and you kinda need accuracy if we are talking "core" games or you could simply take the Mario Galaxy route and just have the motion controls be a very small part of the experience but then thats kind of a moot point.

M+ and sixense are accurate enough I think, that given the right talent and resources, could be used for amazing games. Standard Wiimotes, not so much.
