Wasn't there a discusion on how MotionPlus software has been somewhat lacking. This uDraw tablet is going to be worse.


If you mean exact 1:1, that isn't lacking, since most games would have to allow for general motions, due to people not playing every game the same way. So the lacking part is gamers thinking it's the tech that will make this, not the games.

I really meant support.

Oh, that. Yeah, it's been slow. I think developers are desperate for the Move and Kinect to finally make the Wii go away, so they are putting their support on those.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Doesn't really matter, both WiiFit and WSR are more than enough. And if anything else comes along that I like it's a plus. Same thing could happen to this one from THQ, need to see how it develops.

There is Zelda, and then Nintendo will focus on more, after that.

In that link it says "THQ intends to roll out further uDraw-compatible packages and games every three months or so". Assuming the board itself works well, that's more than enough support as far as I am concerned.

The nice thing here is that this is not only a drawing board in the classical meaning, it also makes use (or can use whenever warranted) of the wii remote itself:

"The Wii Remote's buttons are accessible in front and behind the tablet, leaving them free for use in games compatible with the device."

and

"...the tablet can be tilted to roll him around in a bubble, reminiscent of the iPhone/iPad's Super Monkey Ball"

Nintendo could u please just take my money and give me back my 3DS?!

IMO concept wise, this is the best peripheral to come out for the Wii except for the balance bpard and motion plus.

MY ZELDA COLLECTION

I don't see why the crap is needed to play the games.  The Wiimote has a pointer.
