i tellyou one thing.I will not buy a ps4 or xbox 720 if they have waggle controls.
Nah, there are so much games that won't benefit at all from waggle. Motion controls are good for minigames and that's about it. Maybe next gen motion controls will be good enough for something.

I've played a lot of games and I've never had or wanted to use the classic or GC controller, I've also never played a game that called for "waggling"which is really just a meaningless put down and no more descriptive of real gameplay than calling traditional controllers wiggling (your thumbs).
I will admit that for some games there was a need for more precision and less latency but those concerns will be addressed by motion+ which bring true real time one to one motion.
It also has a lot to do with the game developers getting to know how to really use motion control and not just tacking it on. I was a big Call of Duty fan on the PC but was very dissapointed with CoD3 on the Wii which I felt used the controls very poorly. Overall its reviews reflected this (69 metacritic).
But I knew from Link Crossbow trainer how really good control could be with the zapper. I didn't rush out to get Cod WaW because I wanted to be sure they had done a better job. (Reviews indicate they may have (83 metacritic) so I got my copy last night. I look forward to playing it.
Two things will make a big difference; motion+ and game developers taking the sytem seriously. By the time the next gen consoles roll out I predict, with some confidence, that anyone wiithout motion control will feel cheated and any console not using it will fail.

Good for you! I haven't played any games which benefit from motion controls, with the exception of some minigames. A lot of games are really just waggle and add nothing compared to pushing a button. Some tacked on gesture does not interest me a bit. Just out of curiosity, do you consider SMG/brawl/kart/loz games which are using motion controls properly?
How does a zapper use motion controls? Or are you talking about IR-pointing?
WM+ is a good step. Now if they would have the processing power to really use it.. well, that is up to next gen.

same here i'll retire from video games i've tried the wii and it's not for me

Play Me
Kinda offtopic: you know what would kick ass, games controlled by your mind
Well Sony has already copied Nintendo but it filed miserable because they didn’t know how to use it which = gimmick.
Next gen they will have a remote or something just like Nintendo’s and MS will do the same. That’s how things work.

I'm very surprised no one mentioned anything about Sixense. PS3's version of the Wii-Mote, which is better on every level. Even with WM+ the Wii-Mote can't compare to Sixense.
- http://sixense.com/
Now, don't get me wrong I still love the Wii :P and Wii-Mote, because it actually has games lol. Not only that, but it's the first console to date to actually have something so good, that actually worked/works.
So really, PS3 has already joined the "Wii-Mote" market, you could say. Though Sixense is still in production and isn't complete, plus I don't know when they would be releasing it to the public/consumers.
I also believe 360 is working or has one their using testing now, just keeping it on the low.
Edit: for spelling errors and other things.
There is definitely more to list that I want, but that's my main focus there.

You can’t do better than 1:1 and WM+ is that already so I don’t know where you got the “better” from it is just as good but not better.
