skztr, you should try out "WiiMotion+" since it does add those 7 to 9 orders of magnitude that you're looking for to the motion detection that the original Wiimote has.As far as the rest of your criticism is concerned, keep in mind that the Wii when it came out was (and still is until there is competition in the realm) truly nextgen. Sure it didn't have top notch graphics and all the processing power that's packed into a PS3 or even an XBox360. However it completely changed the dynamics of game control to the point that even Sony and Microsoft are coming out with competing control methods.In other words, the Wii did it first which implies it was at the beginning of the next generation while Sony and Microsoft were still trying to eke out the last drop of performance out of last gen.That's my $0.02.Disclaimer: I own all three consoles (and an HDTV to get the most out of the graphics) and enjoy playing all three very much.
