or is it just too physically demanding so
people literally and figuratively tired of it?
Partly that. Playing something like Zelda with motion controls gets insane pretty fast. Think about playing Zelda for an hour and how many sword slashes you do.
Also, existing control methods (gamepads, keyboards, mice) are really good. If you think about it, they are miracles of efficiency and accuracy. Compared to motion controls, you do an order or two of magnitude less work, and in return you get an order or two of magnitude more precision in many cases.
There are some genres that are fun with Wiimotes. Wii Sports is always fun for short bursts at a party. Also arcade light gun style shooting games are just phenomenal. But in general, yeecccch.
