Why sit on your arse and turn a steering wheel when you can just run forty miles to work?
When someone says "Why do X when you can just do Y?" its usually because "just doing Y" is simpler or easier. Turns out that ducking is neither simpler, nor easier.

That sort of game interface can be fun for a certain segment/genre. People still enjoy playing on the Wii. I would concede that its not mainstream, but who knows, maybe we just need to make the right game.
