See, that's the problem with most of the motion control games so far (including many of Nintendo's). A controller motion isn't a button press and shouldn't be used that way. But too many games treat the motion as a substitute for a button press.
We don't need more games that work better with a traditional controller. We need more games that work better with motion controls. Games like first person shooters or World of Goo or Wii Bowling or Tiger Woods Golf or Boom Blox. Games that require precisely timed button presses should stick with controllers. We need whole new genres to properly take advantage of motion controls in ways nobody has seen before, and we are only just starting to get to that point.
