Just as it has done with the Wii Wheel, Wiil Zapper (Link's Crossbow Training) and Game Party, Gamestop is charging a $5 premium over the MSRP for Wii Motion Plus.

A lot of other retailers have done with with the wheel and zapper (though no one else did it with the Midway mini-game collection). I wonder if the game will be available at $20 anywhere.  (It is at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Wii-MotionPlus-Nintendo/dp/B001TOQ8NO/ref=sr_tr_1?ie=UTF8&s=aps&qid=1239991656&sr=8-1)

And the irony is that the CEO of Gamestop talked about the Wii needing a price cut this week because of slowing sales (and this was before NPD released).
