Wii owners have already spent $60 on each of their additionnal wiimote/nunchuck, so i don't think the idea of paying $20 more would be well accepted... If we could have 1 to 4 WM+ add-ons easily while buying the most interesting games, most devs will then be ok to do way more WM+ compatible games in the future... otherwise, it will stay a (too) limited feature for a (too) limited audience, which would be a shame... |
actually, this is a bad idea from a business standpoint. If you bundled the WM+ with more then 4 different games, there would be a decent chance of you giving these things away for free to people who are just going to toss them in the trash.
It would be better to offer to SKU's, with WM+ an extra $10m, compared to $15-20 standalone. However, then you introduce different issues and complications. Odds are you'll only need 2 for the first year anyways, so Wii Sports Resort and 1 extra WM+ isn't all that bad.
