@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, 

No, they've been packing it in with games (for a $10 premium) since launch.  They've been packing it in with wiimotes (again for a $10 premium) since last November.  Now they're packing it in with the console for free.

Nintendo really hasn't been bad with M+ pricing and bundling, probably because they want to push adoption as much as possible.

I was referring to the first bundles that started appearing, or the price of which dropped very recently in some countries, with WM+ included and, finally this likely inclusion in future WiiMotes. Before the cut finally officially announced for the console with WM+ bundle, the last price officially announced by Nintendo was the price cut for Wii last Autumn, but WiiMote and WM+ last list prices were announced so far in the past that it was now quite difficult to identify a precise overprice for bundled WM+. Now new official prices are getting announced by Nintendo, it's quite a clearer step, and totally ascribable to Nintendo, not to single retailers initiatives. Subtleties, but there are people that think that Nintendo is some godly exception and never reacts but always acts first and with regal detachment, truth is that this gen Nintendo could and still can do this way more times than its competitors, but this doesn't mean that it always can do so. Officially cutting and then including WM+ right now means that this is one of the cases when Ninty has a reaction, early and prompt, without any doubt, to competitors' moves.

And finally a dig to malstromites: has the current incumbent become Nintendo now, maybe?
