Too accurate -- meaning too sensitive for this application if used to its maximum extent.
Some possible explanations put forth in comments elsewhere include the difference in the weight/size of the Wiimote vs. the weight/size of real sports equipment.
Most guesses have had the price of the unit in the $10-$15 range (my guess is $10 MSRP with many retailers adding five bucks to the price, much like Gamestop does with Wii Wheels and Zelda Zappers).
Right now, there are 50M Wiis and about 110M controllers (the average was 2.2 controllers per Wii). So selling 50M WM+ add ons would mean roughly half the people would have to buy them. Considering that over 40 percent of the Japanese Wii owners have bought Wii Sports AT FULL PRICE, this is not an insane prediction, particularly if several desirable games made use of the add-on.
