Great, glad you feel that way. Can I have yours?

No but I'm holding my judgment until Nintendo unveils the whole story about it.

Ya, you need to have a game to attach it to before you can get excited about it. I mean, did anyone really think the rumble pack was a big deal until they played Star Fox 64? That turned out to be a revolutionary thing, but at the time, nobody really cared about rumble.

The fact is, most people don't care about 1:1 because they've never experienced it before. They'll need to experience the difference and then they'll never be able to go back. One thing I'm excited about (we'll see if this comes to pass) is a more accurate pointer. There are times the pointing can be a bit wonky. But to be quite honest, I have absolutely NO idea how this attachment will work. I really hope they explain the mechanics of the device, so we mortals can try and divine what exactly what the attachment does to the wiimote.

Nice relief from the other topic.

EA talked about Tiger Woods 09 having 1:1 swing control. Which is awesome. Perhaps Nintendo let them know this was coming?

come on!!

this add-on is huge!!
it means that games with more advanced motion controls are coming + it will probably increase accuracy in all games!!

what we don't know, is if following wii-remotes will have this add-on, or future consoles will include this...

as many of others have said there's no games unveiled yet so anyone dissing it and doubting Nintendo already is an idiot. I'm personally extremely hyped about.

Motion controls we're only gonna go 1 of 2 ways - they we're either gonna be seen as a gimmick and die or get refined, improve over time and be seen as a viable control scheme.

I like to see this as the fat lady singing but we'll find out in due time.

Yes, is only you.

I think future consoles will definitely include this. NekoSOM's analogy to the rumble pack was a good one--it was a peripheral for the N64 and then built in to later controllers. It may not be obvious that it's in there, though--it'll just be a part of a future super accurate motion controller for the 8th gen Nintendo system.

yay, more peripherals to buy. EA wants to start bundling stuff with sports games. Can you imagine the amount of peripherals we're going to have? I just hope this one is cheap if it actually improves wiimote performance. Rock Band a GT IV are expensive enough. I already have a classic controller, wavebird, and wheel grip. At least I don't want Wii Fit.
