       If the camera tracking is all that is needed to make the Motion Plus as accurate as the Move is, then the Wii U's camera used as described in my last post will do the trick. However, if the M+ still needs better accelerometers or something else in addition to the camera, then the Wii U's motion stuff will still be less accurate than the PS3's Move and might have to compete eventually with the PS4's Move+ :(

    Anyway, just to add to the list of Motion Plus games I've been compiling on this thread, there's New Carnival Games(30 mini games). Not that I'm interested in it though.

As far as I know the WiiU is going to use the old wii motes. It would be a lot harder then tracking the move controller, no easy color coded sphere to track. It's probably easier to track the player using background substraction and use that to guess where the controller is. That might be enough correction to keep the 3d position of the wii mote accurate as long as the lighting conditions are good.

But how many games would really use it. Puzzle games like tumble, table tennis, but not for regular tennis. I don't have a tennis court sized living room. Probably not enough for Nintendo to add it.

Maybe Sony can come up with some cool (not mini) games. So far the best most developers can come up with is trying to imitate a light gun.

Yea, I think Nintendo said it uses the old Wii remotes, too.  So most developers will probably develop games for the older remotes, as most people have them.  Though, ultimately, I think Nintendo and 3rd party developers are going to be shying away from motion control games that use the Wii controllers, and focus on making core titles that incorporate the Wii U's tablet controller.

As far as Move goes, the only problem I have with it is the resolution of the PS Eye makes for some pretty poor vid quality.  Though, I'm sure Sony will be addressing that with a new camera for the PS4.  I also hope they develop a Move/Nav hybrid so you won't have to give up movement to control both hands.
