Am I the only one who thinks Red Steel 2 will have a Motion Plus Bundle?

Although not officially announced it's pretty obvious that WSR will launch in early June or late May.  Why?  Because a bunch of other games that use WM+ debut in late May and June and no one would want to out more than a week or two supporting a peripheral that doesn't exist.   That's also E3's date and Nintendo is sure to be showing off all their WM+ games at E3.

Meanwhile RS2 is almost certainly going to be out Holiday '09 - I say that because it hasn't even been officially announced yet.  There's no screenshots - nada.   So we're looking at a 4-5 months gap between the two.   And the people Red Steel will appeal to are the one most likely to already have multiple WM+s already by then.

 

We'll finally get to see the game this month I think, as there's a magazine coming out with the first sneak peak (what makes it a sneak peak anyways? It's not like they don't have permission), So we're quite close to seeing it. I agree that Nintendo is going to focus on the M+ at E3, and I'm sure we can all agree that Red Steel 2 is going to be one of the games they focus their attention on. The way the mainstream media has taken to Nintendo E3's, that's going to be one pretty sudden and huge boost in the RS2 hype train. It really could come out as soon as one month after that for all we know.

For the notion that those interested in RS2 will already have Motion +, I see two problems with that. First off is the game overlap. Won't the deciding factor on who has motion plus be the games that use it? It comes with Sports Resort, suggesting that the people most likely to have it are those that love Wii Sports, and is also being used in Tiger Woods 10, Virtua Tennis and EA's tennis game. The Casual/sporting - FPS overlap probably isn't the strongest one in the Wii's lineup.  But even if there are lots of people who already bought Wii Sports resort, like I said, Nintendo wants 4 of them in every house. You bought Sports Resort and an extra Motion plus? Get Red Steel 2 and then you'll have 3 of them! Boo-yeah!

I think it will seem like a much better idea to a lot of buyers than buying Sports Resort and 3 additional M+'s. That costs a lot of money that could be better spent on games... that come with M+ bundled!
