I think they need to figure out the sitting down. Or more have games that only use your hands and not your feet. Because honestly nobody wants to play a driving game standing up. Most of the action games (even for the wii) you stand up for, and that is fine.
I actually think they need to make some type of controller that it is, is buttons. (I think they had something like that for some Trivial pursuit game) .
Even more I would mind them making some type of gloves that you put on that help you get some type of feed back so you know when you are hitting the blocks or petting the cat. But I guess the gloves would have to allow the camera to still see where you hands are.
I think Kinect is a good start, and I think there well be some games for it. But I don't know if its a long term thing. Except for sports (standing up) games I just don't see it. One of the things I hate about the wii is how they try to get all clever with the controller (maybe because they have to). It ends up not being that fun or intuitive, all because the controlling sucks.
For those looking for a device strictly for reading, the new Kobo is a nice little option. It's small enough to slip into a pocket, can do more with a PDF than the competition, and at $129, it's $10 cheaper than both the Nook and Kindle WiFi.
