MotionPlus finally will allow for 1:1 motion control, a criticism leveled at the Wiimote since its release.
Nick Hagger, the producer of Wii’s “de Blob,” however, told me MotionPlus could lead to unneeded complexity to motion controls.
“I think if we had the MotionPlus to start out with, maybe the control scheme would have worked out a little bit differently,” said Hagger in a phone interview late last week. “I think the temptation with having Wii MotionPlus would have been to push it more in a gestural control scheme. While it’s definitely intellectually stimulating from a development perspective to play with those ideas — and I think it does appeal to a set of gamers out there — I think the majority of people that play on the Wii want something very simple that they can just immediately get their heads around.”
Do you agree with his assessment of most Wii players, readers?
“de Blob” arrives on store shelves today.
