Forums - Nintendo - 1:1 wiimote addon -FROM NINTENDO- coming e3 preview

Man, what is this crap...just make freaking M rated games for grownups Nintendo. You already have motion controls...you don't need to make them motion-ier.

I'm so gonna sell my Wii after E3 if nintendo is doing more peripherals...

I have to say, this has got to be what they were talking about when they said they had something for the hardcore gamers. I'm sure there is a game to go along with it, but I'm sure they will save that for tomorow.

I'm not too hyped about it, as I really don't know any games that I'm currently interested in that would actually benefit from this, so I'm waiting to see how this turns out.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Woah never would of thought of this but they are probably going to show this with the new punch out game.

Is anyone here shocked that you would have this reaction?  Go back to your 360 please.



The possibilities for true 1:1 games now is awesome. I see Wii Music, Punch Out, Star Wars Lightsaber game, and Red Steel 2 working absolutely perfect for this.

I wonder if they are going to implement it in a Zelda game, or a starfox game or something else. I can't wait to see what they show us tommorow.

I'm not sure the timing is so great.

Microsoft - Here is our new motion controller!

Nintendo - Oh yeah! Well here is the add on to fix ours!

If the WiiMote is supposed to be targeting the casuals whats it going to look like when they try to sell an add on that tracks your movements.. hold on isn't that what it already does? Yes, but this does it better. What's wrong with the current one? A possible Nintendo marketing headache?


Even though the WiiMote cold do 1 on 1 (like in baseball in Wii sports) it still needs too be improved so you can swing faster and what this dose as the article seas it’s is more accurate ;)

The real question, is can you still connect the Nunchuck, and second, does this affect all games, or just new games.

Also, will I get free Wii Remote Jackets that fit this also?

 

IGN, made the assumption that there appears to be a removable piece at the end that allows the nunchuck to be plugged in. It appears to be the accurate size. I also imagine nintendo would want this to work with the nunchuck as well.

It wont affect old games, because there would be no input code to interact with the new peripheral. I imagine only most trusted game developers new about this, so don't expect it in any games apart from Nintendo or any 1st party relations. Only big companies like EA could of got this update for the devKit in time.

It will be interesting though....



Nintendo = Innovation = Wii

Please don`t make me faint. I was kinda sad when I heard Punch Out would be like Wii boxing (very fun, but not accurate enough). This + Punch Out is like going to heaven with naked chicks and drinking milk shakes.
