Is it really that hard to add a toggle feature?

3/4ths the PS3 games I own have sixaxis motion controls to them and I'm sure only like 20% of people actually use those.

The motion controls of the SIXAXIS and Dual Shock 3 are standard in every controller.

 

Wii Motion Plus is a peripheral which segments the market into those that have it and those that do not.   Dev/pubs must deicde whether the extra effort to support WM+ is worth the risk of the limited market.   With PS3 the risk isn't there at all because the feature you point out is 1:1 with ever machine sold.

Is that really a good excuse though?

The rumble pak and expansion pak back on the N64 both added toggle features.

Why would you need a toggle feature on WM+ supported games?  The removal of the unit IS the toggle option.  Take WM+ off the back of the remote and the game reverts to standard motion controls (except those that require WM+ obviously).  

But you're probably aksing why doesn't every developer simply add WM+ support and those that don't have it use standard motion controls.  The problem is development time and money.  It takes a lot to get the cotnrols just perfect and the people in charge are always weighing out whether that is time and money well spent or not and with a small install base (I say small but it's quickly up to 6 million after just 4 months on the market) most developers will lean towards just the default controls.

 

Mike, I believe 250 games have been released since WM+ (this includes WiiWare titles).  6 of those titles support WM+.
