the only thing that can replace controllers are these or whatever the other company making the similar white ones was,

and even then, they're going to have to add some kind of controller joystick and a couple buttons to the left and right index finger that you can operate with your thumb, because those things are needed for games.
However, those things are not needed for simulations, or, if you're super creative about your ui. 
Arm swinger locomotion like in sprint vector and a UI that are called up with fast arm movement much like vaniimenu which mimics sword art https://sabowl.sakura.ne.jp/gpsnmeajp/unity/vaniimenu/
CAN somewhat replace the need for controllers with joysticks and buttons entirely - because of pinch select and the touchpad hotspot and whatnot, but all interfaces would have to change.
Because these devices create physical resistance, you can use a virtual controller easily, since it'll feel like you're holding one.
Devices WITHOUT physical restriction of movement (hand tracking, gloves without motors) will never replace something like the vive wands or index controllers until those things are met.
I just wish the wands had finger splay
