Nintendo Unveils Wii MotionPlus

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the out-to-spoil-someone's-day dept.

Tim MacDonald writes "In a pre-conference announcement at E3, Nintendo has unveiled the newest accessory for the Nintendo Wii — the Wii MotionPlus. The Wii MotionPlus combines with the Wiimote's accelerometers and the Sensor Bar to give true, almost 1:1 matching of motion. More to come during Tuesday's conference." If all these battery mods and add-ons to the Wiimote continue my controller is going to start looking less like a controller and more like a quarterstaff. Looks like the wrist strap is going to have to go through another round of beefing up.

    Wait a second, where did I say that in my signature? My sig when I posted that was:

    "900 years of time and space and I've never been slapped by someone's mother!"

    Now it's: "Melange in the spice of life!"

    Oh, wait. I think I just got the incredibly cheap, crappy pun you made. Holy shit that's horrible.
