Hawkeye: "I view the Wii as a sidestep Nintendo had to take to dodge being marginalized... so while it was important for surival, this step sideways doesn't really offer anything superior to GC, just different."
^^I agree with you Hawkeye, Nintendo did this more out of necessity than the desire to be creative. Had they continued on the road that Sony and MS were on, they would have been crippled as a company. They had to change it up. Nor do I think motion controls are the way to go or the new standard now. I still prefer traditional controls. Motion controls don't make traditional obsolete, they only offer a new way. I think perhaps that's why I don't respect their new approach as much as some.
And also, I believe Sony will change it up next time. We've never seen them in a bad position, and I think they will respond well.
