If the original Wiimote cost $10 to manufacture in 2006, and was sold at $40, I just really hate Nintendo for not going with motion-plus from day one. Greedy bastards.

Just think about how little the $50 PS3 and XBox 360 controllers cost to manufacture ...

I don't think it's the same... My point was actually based on something that has been discussed in earlier threads about Wii. If it had motion-plus from day one, chances are we would have seen more games that fulfilled its initial promise, and possibly some better support, too. Things would have looked very differently for Wii gamers if that happened...

thank you, i thought i was the only person in the world who thought this, i cant even add anything, this just sums up my feelings on motion+

you're most welcome

In fact I'm pretty sure most Wii owners are in agreement on this, especially considering how Wii would have easily sold for a higher price for the first two years...

yeah but you have the damn weirdos who swear that it would have been to expensive to do back then and that the technology did not exist, like adding an extra gyro would have bumped up the cost that much, damn apologists
