Will requiring Wii Motion Plus hurt Skyward Sword sales?

Nope.

If Zelda can't sell for $/€60 these days (that's the cost of the Wii Remote Plus Zelda bundle or buying the game alone plus a Wii Motion Plus add-on), then there's something seriously wrong with the appeal of the game.

Just plain this. Spirit Tracks didn't need anything special, but it sold very low for a Zelda game, and ended up in bargain bins in Japan (Nintendo stupidly assmed that was due to too much supply, as though no one has ever sold a rare game before).

And Majora's Mask did NOT sell low due to the RAM expansion. First of all, it still sold well, and second of all, its structure was too irregular for a lot of players. You can't even get into combat until you go through at least one cycle, and that still requires knowing who to talk to in what order.

This, MM was just a weird ass entry, period. It was radically different than OOt but at the same time, not really.  I dont know why people were expecting it to do better than OOT
