NVIDIA Paves the Way for Natural Speech Conversations with Game NPCs

By wikipedia's definition they are not. You clearly have your own definition of the term, which is ultimately what you are arguing over. I honestly could care less what your definition of them is.
Utter nonsense, why you are choosing to die on this hill is beyond me, makes you look like you didn't even read your beloved definition.

Here's wikipedia's definition:
In video games and entertainment systems, a motion controller is a type of game controller that uses accelerometers or other sensors to track motion and provide input.
Phones do have accelerometers and other sensors aka gyros, to track motion and provide input to games.

What you don't understand is that, as previously pointed out, is that Gyros and accelerometers alone cannot provide tracking to the level needed for games, hence why not a single game uses that and why phones are motion controllers. Notice how phones aren't on the list of motion controllers on wikipedia? That's because they aren't. You are confusing anything that can track motion at all with a motion controller. It's a caveman level understanding of what a motion controller.

Here's wikipedia's definition:

Phones do have accelerometers and other sensors aka gyros, to track motion and provide input to games.

No, here's the actual quote from wikipedia which you seem to be afraid of directly quoting due to it disproving your sham of the theory:

"In video games and entertainment systems, a motion controller is a type of game controller that uses accelerometers or other sensors to track motion and provide input. "


If you follow the link of track motion, guess what there isn't a single mention of phones either. The only mention of gyros in general is that of inertial systems which is not used in a single motion controller system for the reasons mentioned in my last post (drift, inaccuracy). You seem to be the only person in the world who thinks phones are suitable for motion controls, all to try and foist your own bizarre hate of motion controls and your corresponding invented narrative. I really think it's silly because, in a hypothetical scenario where phones are motion controllers (they aren't), the level of capability provided by phones vs even the Wii and especially VR headsets is worlds apart. You are in essence saying that in such a hypothetical scenario that no one wants motion controls because the cherry picked worst example of them is underused / not used at all. It's absolutely ridiculous, you've just exchanged your argument from one logical fallacy to another, in this case cherry-picking. As I've pointed out multiple times already, the capability of what phones can do and what motion controllers can do are vastly different in regards to motion tracking.
