The games don't infuriate people, the controls do. Likewise, ever notice how the games that made the best use of motion controls are all single player?

This is because lag and precision become significantly worse when using motion controls. This is why games like call of duty were able to thrive on the PS3 despite the wii having the bigger install base.

In fact, I don't know of a single notable wii game that's big within the esports community. Is it really worth it to craft "new" experiences at the expense of the esports community?

I've always purchased COD on Wii/Wii U over Xbox/Playstation myself, because pointer aiming just feels so much better. Going back to dual analogue FPS controls now feels to me like steering a jet fighter with one of these:

Well that's great, and I'm glad for you! But at the same time, your experience doesn't define the experience for others. And the fact that esports take pc controls or traditional controls over motion controls is really indicative of what the majority of people (within the gaming community at least) feel about motion control.

btw: to give my input, playing metroid prime on the wii wasn't the worst thing in the world, but more often than not my sensor would lose sight of my wii remote and my I would be pretty innacurate with my shots due to imprecision
