Same here... I have a nice Flightstick and Throttle HOTAS setup (with rudder pedals, even), that's gathering dust under my desk.
I'm hoping it's just a necessary dry spell, so we'll get to the point where enough older gamers are nostalgic for those titles, and enough new kids can enter the market who never played them. Then the genre can be something game companies will want to tap into as a "fresh" concept. They can't keep cranking out WWII and Alien Bug shooters forever.
