I just want them to keep the controllers about the same and make better graphics, more shit going on at the same time, real physics and more realistic texture work.

That's the kind of thinking that alienated most of the world from games and brought us more of "Same Game, Different Graphics." The PS2/Xbox/Gamecube era was a rutt compared to everything before it. I think we're still trying to get out of that rut because no one knows where the fuck games are going, because you can only improve graphics so much before you hit a wall.

Nintendo aren't creating this crap to be innovative and allow us to interact more realistically in an environment; it's to make huge amounts of money on being far more technologically advanced than anything else out there.

That's a cynical way of framing it. Nintendo likes money, sure; they're a business. But to make money, they need to make something new and different. I'm not sure what you're expecting; Sony made Move and Sixaxis, Microsoft made their gamepad and Kinect.

It really, really, really comes across to me as the next step in cashing in on a gimmick, rather than the next step in human/computer relations.

I think there are tons of practical applications, though. Don't compare it to the Wii; compare it to the DS. An HD DS with a gyroscope and compatibility with Wii controls.

Also, fuck 'moving your game from the TV to your controller' shite. How often is that REALLY going to come in handy? I think we are all adults here who own their own god damn TVs, and don't have to worry about Da missing the ball game.

Roommates, bro.

While I am at it, what's the fucking point of a sports game where you run on the spot to make your game character run in a race? Just have a freaking race outside for real - it's exactly the same. If you can't go outside you could just run around the room and save a few dollars on expensive new game hardware. This game is on Kinext or some sort of motion crap I don't know.

I don't remember any sports demos, but yea, I remember Wii Fit had a game where you jogged in place and the screen showed you jogging around different places. That shit's silly, but thankfully there seem to be plenty of traditional games on display. Everyone gets what they want, no matter how casual or snobby they are. I really don't see a problem with that.
