i'll be looking for more deals on the flingsmash bundle. I want to have 4 good motion plus controllers for the Wii U when it comes out. I'm really glad that i won't have to buy all new Wii motes.

......Does not compute....

right now i only have 2 wiimotes that are motion plus.  But I want to get 4.  I've been seeing the flingsmash bundle on sale for $20, so I will be picking up a couple so I can get 4 Wiimotes.  Better now than later when they are $50 again.
