Nintendo was founded in Kyoto, Japan in 1889 as a manufacturer of hanafuda playing cards. The company went through several small niche businesses before becoming a video game company.
" I think they should ditch the whole motion control thing "
It's not going to happen. They had too much success with it to go back. The best they'll do is continue to offer some games that have optional Classic Controller input.

I loved all of the pre wii systems, i just dont like where nintendo is going, the ds as well, u have to put actual effort into the controls, and that to me is pointless.
I have come to really not like the Wii motion controls at all. Way too janky. But some sort of motion control? Meh. I'm not against including it, it's just that there are so many other things I'd rather have in a console. The problem with PS3 and Xbox 360 motion control systems is that they're add-ons, and not integrated. Maybe I'd think differently if it were an inherent part of the system and they actually work as advertised (unlikely, in my opinion).
I have yet to see any games that really demonstrate the potential of motion controls within a hardcore gaming setting. I *could* be convinced, but haven't been. Until then, I don't care.

yeah, I know what u mean it is just meh, and i would rather sit on my ass, unless i got one of these
It should be as it is now on the Wii and DS. An option for those who can use it well. NSMBWii didn't have a need for it, so they didn't use it. That's how it should be.
If it isn't too much to ask, that some games would have regular controller support, other then that it has been ok, not bad nor good, too be honest I don't have many wii games that really uses the motion that much (yupp, it is true). Unless Mario Kart is a good example or?
I love the motion controls and I honestly don't see how one couldn't. I do however think that it should stay limited to controllers, I like to be able to sit down and play my games. I guess a lot of "veteran" gamers just have to get used to using motion controls, it does feel a little weird after having used regular controllers for so long.
There's a reason why the motion controls were so successful, people like it.
Optional, I think motion control can work, but even if it worked great I still wouldn't want to use it very often. Except for maybe menus and stuff, like the Kinect dashboard.
@MattyFTM: But you have to remember nintedo was crazy enough to put em in in the first place they could take them out and say hey look where the only people now with a regular controller when sony and microsoft go the way nintendo did.
I don't care what they do with the controls for the next Nintendo as long as they are fucking crazy. I hoping it mirrors the weird fleshy organic console of the Cronenberg film Existenz (can't wait to see Ryan's take of that film on TANG). All I really care about is that Nintendo acknowledges their online thing sucks and that HD is the future.
