What? Are you honestly going to try to argue against innovation because it may hurt your skill level? Come on, if you're good at games, you're good at games. The control scheme doesn't play nearly as much of a factor as your experiences, the fact that half of these games and puzzles have been redone countless times. You've seen it all before, done it before, so your mind almost instantly knows what to do, it's just a matter of getting it done.
If you are good at games, you're good. Look at Super Monkey Ball, don't try to tell me veteran gamers have an advantage there, there is only one control, yet how many of us are really good at that game?
The fact is today's gamers are growing up playing games that are a lot more advanced than what we used to play, so unlike us, they will master the 3D games at an early age, and yes, you will start getting beat by kids. Doesn't matter how long you play, doesn't make you better. And getting your ass beat is no reason to not want some innovation in this industry. You can get your ass beat now, just go to Twin Galaxies, or play the SMB Elite.
Oh, and for the record, Sony's controller is a joke. The analog sticks were thrown into a poor location, they are being used as a secondary control in an era of 3D games, and they have no analog buttons.
