The Kinect, despite selling well, is struggling to find a core audience of hardcore gamers even on consoles, where they have games specifically designed for it.
It remains to be seen if the Kinect can break out of the novelty market it find itself in.

It can and will. Especially for real world applications like gesture control in the regular living environment. Do you still use real switches for the light in your room e.g.? I replaced some with sensors but it's still far from complete gesture controls. E.g. you could point and move spotlights, dim and change colors and much more.
It just takes a bit of time. Games are quick to make but a real world item for daily use needs to undergo a more thorough development.
