Wii Motion Plus is Too Accurate

@Ninjakido & 786-Ali - It was mentioned that a Motion+ accessory would be bundled with Wii Sports Resort, so yes it does come with a game.

As for the point of an accessory not selling well with a game, need I mention Wii Play? Came with a controller, sold through the roof for a pretty medicore to sucky game.

The funny thing here is, that if Motion+ is successfully mastered and as accurate as claims say, no matter what anyone does next gen for motion controls, they can only be as good as Motion+. THis pulls any power or steam for motion controls next gen. People will say "well, we already have this. THis works like last gen stuff." Pretty much for controls, MS and Sony will be hit with what Nintendo was hit regarding Wii graphics.

 

Edit - Ali - 50 mil is possibe. Remember, 4 controls max with motion plus = a max possibe of 200m motion+ units for 100% attach, 50m is only 25% attach.

Wii play sold well becaue it had a controller, which is necessary for playing. Wii motion plus is just an optional add-on which most people won't even know about

 

Fair point. Yet, also understand that the device comes with Wii Sports 2, a title that EVERY Wii owners knows from the original bundled game. Most will understand "Wii Sports 2" on the shelf, buy it for the game, and then get the Motion Plus that it comes with. Once they figure out how to use it, see the difference, there's the strong possibility that they'll want one for each controller they own. I think we can agree that Nintendo knows what they're doing when it comes to marketing.

 

This one is the truth my friends!

I believe Motion Plus will be a success, for these two lines:

 

- Casual: "oh! A shiny new Wii Sports! hey! I can play frisbee!"

- HardCore: "A lifetime of lightsabers fights just one silly game away? Hell YEAH!"
