Nothing has happened to WM+ -- other than regular development cycles taking time.

Software companies -- particularly third-parties -- want to make sure there are enough peripherals out there before fully developing software that uses the device.

Those who are betting on other devices on other consoles need to take note of this -- especially since other companies do not have the same software development capacity as Nintendo.

Yeah, but i think its time developers show up some Motion Plus projects.

Some GOOD ones.

The peripheral is up to some balance board degree of sucsses. And is smaller and cheaper and much more versatility

 

Im dying to see some new Wii Motion Plus games. And i really really hope that Red Steel 2 sells 8 thousand bazillion copies.

These 3rd parties better not make me buy a Xbox with Natal. I really dont want a xbox.

I personally do not think that will be the result. After an initial rush of some offerings, the same pattern will probably emerge. That has always been the story for add-on controllers since the classic days. There were few games for the Atari 2600 Driving Controller or the Intellivoice or the many Colecovision Expansion Modules.

I dont know, i see the Motion+ not as an every day peripheral, but as a different thing>

 

Its cheap and small = affordable.

Contraire to the Balance Board, there´s A LOT of game genres that could benefit from it.

Heck, you dont even need to unplug it to play regular games!

Mandatory motion+ games would be pretty different than normal offerings, since the 1-on-1 recognition affects gameplay directly.

In the above sentence, diffrent means interesting, fun, new, innovative, i want this.

And alredy has a pretty good install base.

 

In the end, it all comes to the games and 3rd parties. Good games = sucsses. Bad games = failure. The amount of good games will determine how much usage the peripheral will see.
