It's called the Gamecube, it's Nintendo's second worst selling console. Sounds narrow-minded to me by the way. How do you know a game like Arms won't be fun unless you try it? How do you know the HD rumble doesn't add value to the overall gameplay? Immersion is an important element of playing games. 

The GameCube is their only failed attempt when they went after good specs. The Wii U is their first failed attempt at trying to be disruptive with a controller gimmick. If the Switch fails (personal opinion: I don't believe it will), will you agree that their record for going after specs is better and they should get back on that route?

I personally thought the hybrid console was enough innovation and it didn't need the motion technology or the HD rumble tech, but I'm not going to criticize it before I've experienced it myself. $250 would have been the ideal price, I hope they can cut it soon. I'll buy it anyway as I don't really care about the extra $50, but a lot of consumers probably do, at least I think so. 

If I get a new Metroid Prime game that controls as well (or likely better) as Prime 3 you won't hear me complaining about the motion controls though. :) 

In fact, I'm glad the gyro controls return as I hate playing shooters with twin stick aiming. I love the hybrid control method that is provided with Splatoon. It should become an industry standard imo.
