Which is something Nintendo should have done from the Start of the Wii MotionPlus.

Just announced the Wii 2 and get it over with Nintendo. Built in or not, you're surpassed now in motion gaming. Common.. do what you did with the DS (3DS) to the Wii and make it fresh again.

Now release some game please. My motionplus hasn't been used in a year since Wii Sports Resort. I'd appreciate a few games please.

Well Conduit 2 is supposed to support it, no? That's at least something.

Nintendo has to get into the game again, sony already took what you had and made it better (the MOVE is good).
So nintendo, is time to go HD... do it FFS! I want a zelda game with stunning sweet graphics plus the awesome gameplay it has always had!

too bad the motion+ still isnt as accurate as psmove... ill probably wait on getting a move for a bit... i just hate how wonkey the wiimote+ is (even with Red Steel 2 it was not very stable.
