Lair got its update because of the very bad publicity it had. When a re-release with Motion Plus support and added content would make sense, since it would sell the game for many who had bought the original and it would have marketing advantages in comparision to a patch. |
A valid point but there are many game updates that do not have any effect on sales. While Lair's update may have been motivated by the poor reception ther is nothing to suggest it wasn't planned anyway.
Take the addition of rumble to many PS3 titles once the DS3 was released. Why bother when the games were at that point cataloged and no longer on the shelf?
If you want to monetize it, they could charge for the patch via Nintendo Shop Channel.
