@theRepublic I just find it strange that all of a sudden there is whispers of this new controller. I could be wrong, but its just too convient. I dissapointed cause this shows IMO that they could have done this all along, it took another company to finally take this motion thing more serious, function wise.

There were rumors of that all-in-one Wii controller in 2008.

But Nintendo kept on charging an extra for WM+ functions until a competing controller with them built-in came close to release.

They bundle M+ with Wiimotes and most M+ games now for just $10 more.  I'm sure if this all-in-one Wiimote hits market, it'll be the same premium price as the current Wiimote/M+ bundle ($49.99).   Which is also probably what the Movemote will retail for.

True, but they are doing it now. As I wrote in another thread, they overcharged as much as possible, wherever possible and as long as possible for it, for example here in Italy the bundle Wii+WS+WSR+WM+ got the official drop under 200€ just a few days ago, before it was sold for not less than 225€, and the black bundle stayed at 249€ for a long time before getting the first unofficial discounts by big retailers.

Your point?  This sounds like business to me.
