motion controls were a fad. If not, people would have moved on to the kinect. Given the kinect's removal from the xbox one, motion control is no longer what it used to be. AKA a fad


Kinect is very different from the Wiimote. Motion controls are not a fad. People want motion controls, Wiimote style. They just don't have any products to buy that are built around them. 


Playstation move also didn't take of. And that was very similar to the wii remote.

Most people are done with motion control. Wii sports HD is a HUGE farcry sales wise from the original. VR may very well be the next fad to pop up, but I gaurantee that motion control is no longer as wanted as you think it is.

Most companies know this. This is why Ubisoft shifted their focus from raving rabbids and just dance to assassins creed and far cry. Activision shifted from guitar hero to call of duty and destiny. This transition happened toward the end of last gen, where the wii heavily declined and the xbox and ps3 made huge comebacks.
