I think motion has a place as a supplemental "once in a while" kind of thing. There are certain types of games that benefit from motion controls, but I think this generation has shown it is impractical to try to make every game include motion controls. I think basing future consoles on motion controls would be futile.

Sure, Nintendo won over a lot of casual gamers with the Wii. That audience, however, is only looking for certain kinds of games. They're not interested in relatively complicated "hardcore" games. They're not interested in amazing graphics or story or anything like that. The Wii, for the casual audience, was a fun toy that provided them plenty of cheap entertainment. They're not going to look for the "next" version of the Wii. They don't need it.

I think the recent releases of the Kinect and the PS Move showed this. It seems hardly anyone bought the Move and you don't hear much about it just a few months later. Audiences didn't care because it was basically the Wii 2. They already had that and they weren't interested in getting it again. The Kinect sold well, but it was also radically different. But, again, how many great games have come from it? You have the casual games and then....

I do think that if the next generation ignores motion controls completely there is some lost opportunity. There are games that benefit from motion controls. I think, though, Nintendo is smart not to be focusing on it this time around.
