Kinda was expected. Talk is cheap. When you actually experience something, then you can talk.

Why does the 'hardcore' always have to parade their 'i hate motion control' badge?

Do they lose gamer points or something if they don't?

Of the young and old teens that I know, they all have fond memories of Wii and motion control. Grown adults telling teens what is and isn't fun/cool is hilarious to me.

Soo ... you want them to lie?  You want them to pretend to like it?  Or are you saying that ONLY the "young and old teens" you know matter as consumers?  

The money of someone who doesn't like motion controls is every bit as valid as that of someone who does like motion controls.  Trying to run down the opinions that do not mirror your own is much more ridiculous.

Edit:  I forgot what I intended to say because of that bit of down-play.

SnipperClips is really starting to get my attention.  This is like the third time I've heard someone talk about how fun it is.  

I think the Joy Cons as tiny multi-player controllers is going to be the next gimmick that get ignored soon after launch.  It's the 3D on the 3DS.

I'm starting to get a bit curious about HD Rumble.

Even if you're right, Its too bad those young and old teens aren't the ones with money who might buy these consoles and games by the millions.

How about ignore it. Not one game besides 1-2 switch requires motion controls. So if you don't like it, then ignore it. Talk about how it was with your "standard controller" and move on.

Seriously?  You want reviewers to only talk about things they like?  No, thanks.  If someone is going to give impressions, I want to hear the negative as well as the positive, otherwise it's useless except to fanboys who just want reinforcement.

As a games 'journalist' shouldn't they be informing people about a new game that 'had the longest lines, people were having a great time, they said it was a lot of fun'.

The guy in the middle only pipes in to shit on Skyward Sword and then gets pissy because Puyo Puyo Tetris' trophies/achievements had already been leaked????. Watch his body language, he looks like he's going to storm off and cry.

This! 

Wait... What's going on? Am I missing something? Did you watch the video or read my summerization? He basically says he loves the motion controls on the Switch. Why is this a point of contention?

There is a difference ot giving ones opinion to overal docking a score based on an option.

They don't like motion, fine. Mention it, but then as I said, it's an option and something they will NEVER have to use, so it should not affect their final opinion at all in regards to the console. Give the motion a mention for those that care, but otherwise rate the console as you see it yourself.

It's clear that they hate motion controls in general, so their opinion on the matter is frankly biased and shoudl be left out of the final score. The fact that they said it is the best motions controls available shoudl be enough for anyone who likes motion to judge on.

-Disgaea 5: No much interest

- Just Dance 2017: Generic Just Dance dance girl booth

- Skylanders: Imaginators: No Interest;

Dear Nintendo gamers, this is a reminder that you should care about, support and buy third party games, regardless of quality and/or personal interests. Not doing so is a capital sin. The KFG folks are exempt from this rule because they are Overlord tier.

I took his comment as something I keep seeing on gaming comment sections. Didn't watch the video.
