9 times out of 10 JRPGs are vastly superior to WRPGs

Nintendo's hardware are all too often characterized by pointless gimmicks which are essentially Nintendo creating a solution looking for a problem. For example, the 3D in 3DS and the WiiU gamepad. And this is from someone who likes most of their consoles.

Motion controls are almost never good. The only time they were at least somewhat acceptable were on the Wii, because they were essential to the entire console, and even then the console's best games are ones that don't really use them. The PlayStation Move and Kinect were both desperate attempts from Sony and Microsoft to cash in on a fad at least 2 years too late.

Online multiplayer is always the least interesting aspect of a video game, unless that is literally the only thing the game offers.
