From the article:
“There were times when you’d be demoing [games] and nothing would be happening; you would just be rendering the video from the perspective of the Kinect on a big TV,” Skillman says. “And then kids would always charge it. That was weird. Kids would just charge the TV.”
That is so true.. I've seen little kids do that so many times. They're not sure what to do so they just decide they better run up to the TV.
Our family made a go of playing with Kinect (XBox One) but we gave up after not too long. All the games/controls were just too buggy overall.
Whatever the Dance game was.. that actually worked OK for the gameplay. Until our kid fell into a coffee table or kicked someone in the you know what. And the actual menus in that game were terrible... really hard to control and you'd give up and go looking for the controller.
Still.. I don't hate the Kinect. I really hate(d) Rock Band and the awful controllers that came with it. What a waste of money on XBox One. I spent more time on the phone with PDP Customer Support than I played the game.

You attach one controller to the physical ring that you can push or pull, rotate or flick up and down. You can use ring motions to control menus, and even if I think it registers fine, it's much more convenient to use the controller. I'm so happy that they kept that as an option, and I always use the attached controller rather than flipping the ring around. It's just quicker and more convenient.
