Confirming that this happens to me as well. I'm on a Mac though, and the Launcher recognizes the saves from the new directory, but the ignores the Versions folder. A bit different, but main problem happening to me as well.
This has happened to me a couple of times, but sometimes it loads the correct directory. I think it's a 50-50 ratio of occurrence.
I'm running the 1.3.3 launcher currently.
-edit
Something just occurred to me. This only happens with the directory folder that I also named ".minecraft" and no other directories. I will try renaming this folder and see if the issue turns up again. It may be possible naming your directory folder after the one in the appdata confuses the launcher.
