How many games out there let you customize some or all of your button configuration? Almost all of them. Fighting games provide extremely fine grain customization, while others give you a few different layouts to choose from. I don't see how or why this is any different - I have come to expect video game makers to give me options when it comes to controls. The first thing I do on any game is invert the y-axis. I have a couple of friends who play with the "bumper jumper" layout on Halo.

Yes - but how many consoles let you use different controllers?

The Wii is for motion controls. That's why it was made - and that was the basis of the concept for the games. Like Babs' said, it has GC ports because it's backwards compatible - not because they want to negate motion controls and let you play Madworld on a GC controller.

While in the past I've said time and time again that people don't like motion controls that much (and this thread is clearly proof) I do think people who complain about not being able to use a controller for a motion-based console are just being huge babies. What did you expect? It's a Wii. It's built for motion control. If you picked up the Kinect, are you going to complain in 4 months about how every game requires you to move for it, and how it would be way better if you could just somehow sit down and use a normal 360 controller?

If you don't like the fact the Wii is a motion control console - sell your Wii. There isn't much point in having a console that's heavy on swinging your arms, if you just want to sit there and twiddle your thumbs, and then complain about why they released a system with motion controls.
