I'm gonna say this only once, the wii remote was originally developed as an add on for the Game cube, but they realized that peripherals never sell as good as standards. If they make it an add on as an -afterthought- sure it may have some good games/uses(think eye toy) but it will by and large be ignored by not only consumer but developer.

I'm not saying it isn't a good idea I'm saying bad execution. It will also make some consumers look at it and go "hmm I guess that Wii did have a good idea, it's cheaper... the games are cheaper maybe I should just buy the Wii" Don't tell me it would not happen because the average "consumer" isn't overly bright in every field. Videogames happens to be one of those fields most people just don't understand too well.
