By releasing some games, even just a few, like Kart and Brawl, with the option to use different controllers/formats, they created that expectation. And I love those games - I played Mario Kart Wii just yesterday (I used a gcn controller).

I see the Wii as a system with motion controls, not a motion control system. I feel like it's in everyone's best interest (both the players and Nintendo), to provide plenty of control options for any given game. If the motion controls are good and they work and are fun, people will use them. If they aren't, people won't, and if you don't provide any other alternative, people won't buy the game, just like I'm doing.

Controls are the single most important aspect of a game - it's your interface into that world. It's just something I can't look past.

A good example of what I mean is the DS, almost every DS game except the ones that use touching as a game component, give you alternatives. Often I use a combination of buttons and the touch screen. Giving players this option, and not forcing them to use the touch screen, has not been detrimental to the system at all.
