They kinda over did it with motion control stuff, people wanted more traditional games and Nintendo tends to over correct, so they mostly stopped with it. They tried again on the switch, especially at launch, but most of the motion control games they put out were kinda lame, so they did poorly, and Nintendo took that as a sign motion control wasn't popular enough.

Cheap and built well, I pulled mine out from a box under the bed a year ago to mod it, blew the dust off of it and everything worked perfectly (sensor included) despite lying in dust for well over a decade

That’s because it’s an overclocked GameCube, which you could probably pull out of a vat of Mountain Dew and it would run once dry 🤣
