It's not debunked. Most of Nintendo's Wii U games use motion in their primary control schemes. That's the only relevant point of this discussion, anything else is just diversion on your part.

Because... you say so. Man you're pulling out all the terrible argumenting tricks!

You two are debating like cats and dogs.

Are you really trying to argue that Nintendo still treats motion controls as the primary control scheme, really? Also what's that other word I used with secondary that you conveniently keep ignoring despite being the most important word in this entire discussion?

Motion controls are the primary controls in games like Splatoon.

In a business sense, "motion controls are bad because they're not the popular method today" is true. Not many people are interested in it. We're not talking about what's right and wrong but about the features of products. Popularity is king.
If you owned a candy store and hardly anyone buys the licorice candy, are you gonna order a bunch of licorice candy each month? No. Is it gonna be featured in your advertising? No. You're gonna order the more popular candies to sell if you want to make any money. Licorice is a bad product to a business because it sells like crap.
On the polar opposite of argumentum ad populum, the lack of popularity in something doesn't make it good or true. In other words, the lack of popularity of motion controls doesn't make it good either.

So you see the pointlessness of even bringing up popularity. It's like saying black and white movies are shit because not many are made any more.

It's not pointless. I think that you're missing the point. We're talking about products which have everything to do with popularity because it typically equates to sales and consumers being happy with that product. The reason why black and white movies aren't being made anymore is because it's irrelevant in today's market. No one wants new movies made in black and white. If black and white movies are actually bad or not in the sense you're talking about doesn't matter.
