I knew this was going to happen sooner or later. Trust nintendo to sell the same hardware over and over again.


The PS3 and Xbox 360 with different hard drive sizes and slim models all say that you are cherry picking and need to stop.

Maybe I am cherry picking, but to me hard drives and case sizes aren't upgrades for the software, they're upgrades for the hardware. But yeah..

Wait... you seem to have changed your argument there. This is about Nintendo releasing a new Wiimote. Which would be a hardware upgrade, as you've said in your post up there in the first quote box. A new console SKU with a larger hard drive and a new skin is also a hardware upgrade.

Software wasn't even being discussed by anyone, yourself included.

WM is required for newer games.

The point I'm making just above is that this upgrade is an upgrade for software. It's a hardware upgrade for the software. Normally in the console community, this doesn't exist. It's more of a PC thing, and should stay that way.

This isn't like a rumble pack, or, a light gun. Those things are irrelevant to accessibility. This is an upgrade of the controller to lay the foundation of what is going to be the future of wii games.

It's like the sega 32X, or the N64 RAM upgrade, with the exception, that these controllers could have been coming out when WM was coming out. My point is that Nintendo leaves things out in order to sell something later down the line. That is pretty typical Nintendo.
