I personally can't see an extension of my arm ever being as accurate as moving your thumbs - which just seems to allow for finer movement control.
I'm just waiting for the perfect sword fighting game and the perfect fist fighting game using motion controls. Sadly, I think by the time they come out, I'll be too old and tired to properly play them.
I think part of the problem with using motion controls for FPS and why we really haven't seen it with the Wii is because unlike a mouse, your hand will always be moving. Having 1-to-1 motion will cause the screen to shake due to your unsteady hands. I think that's why motion controls are much better suited to third-person shooters where your centre of sight does not need to be in the centre of the screen. There's more leeway for the camera. I'd still like to see them attempt at a true 1-to-1 FPS, but I don't want them to do it just because it is the "popular" genre.
And that sucks about your finger :S

I think that is actually easily remedied and probably the primary function of the Move button. You can press it down to activate camera movement and let up to make it stay in one place. I figured that out by switching to this thing called the "gyromouse" which you can look up on line. I used it on FPS games on the PC for a little while and that is how it worked. The reason I stopped using it is because there wasn't enough button cumstomisability(i may have made that word up just now.
