How dissapointed will you be if Wii Sports Resort is delayed until Winter?

Now that Nintendo has removed the "Spring '09" release date, we can be certain that WSR and M+ have been delayed.  Why?  Maybe because they're worried about being undersupplied yet again, as this article suggests:

Maybe they've decided to include M+ into all future Wiimotes, which would cause a big delay as well.

 

Whatever the cause of this delay, how would you feel if you don't get to try MotionPlus until Christmas?

Manufacturing issues are the only thing I can see stopping this title from being the #1 title this year - by a mile.

So it doesn't surprise me, Nintendo has to delay to ensure lots of stock.

Hopefully they are continuing to polish the game in the meantime, and make it even better.

I don't think there is any chance they will integrate this into all Wiimotes - in the short term anyway. I'm just trying to work out exactly how they will sell this, and what packages they will release.

I wouldn't be shocked at all, if the only way to buy WM+ is by also buying WiiSports:Resort - at least in the short term. But - since Resort has two player WM+ games in it (and I'm guessing multiplayer may be a key feature) it may need to come with TWO WM+ units.

Some options:

 - WS:R + 1xM+ = $69 (no other packages)

 - WS:R + 2xM+ = $79-$99 (no other packages)

 - WS:R + 1xM+ = $69, 1xM+ = $29

This (WM+) will completely sell out at launch, and Nintendo will not be wanting to lose WS:R sales because WM+ is out of stock.

...

I also wouldn't be shocked if Nintendo announces/releases this at anypoint, i.e. even within the next 6 month window. Japan needs a serious boost, and they will want this out in Japan ASAP.
