Any weird/controversial opinions? I'll start. Before the remake, the best version of Resident Evil 4 was the Wii version. The Wiimote controls old Resi's tank controls better than any other controller at the time. The PC version had a bunch of little bugs and detractors that the Wii version just doesn't have.

I'll extend this by saying that the Wiimote is actually pretty damn good for shooters, and particularly good for accessibility. Not having to cramp up my hands to press buttons is awesome for having arthritis. Aiming with the Wiimote and moving with the nunchuck just feel really natural, you barely have to move your fingers for anything.

It's not like sports rules have never changed (they do often but it's usually small things because of how long they've been around) and they didn't always have steady attendance/revenue, it took decades for many pro sports to "catch on" in a similar way to how they are now.

Not saying I disagree fully but your provided reasons don't really stand up.

eSports are based on specific properties from given companies. At any given time, said company can decide to pull support for the game and disallow tournaments (e.g. Nintendo) or stop sponsoring the competitive circuit (e.g. Blizzard).

True, but that doesn't mean esports would have to die, there was esports tournaments before game companies ever got involved with more specifically controlling them.
