Wii MotionPlus

Simple. Intuitive. Easy to use. Connect the Wii MotionPlus accessory to your Wii Remote controller to increase accuracy and enhance play control on compatible games. Look on the back of Wii Game Disc packaging to see which games are specially designed for use with Wii MotionPlus. Wii MotionPlus contains additional sensors that make the Wii Remote respond to the slightest movement, motion, or twist of the wrist. Wii MotionPlus must be used with a Wii Remote, which is sold separately. When used with specially designed games, Wii MotionPlus tracks players’ movements in finer detail and with greater accuracy than ever before, building upon the innovative wireless function of the motion-sensing Wii Remote controller. Even the slightest twist of the wrist or turn of the body is replicated exactly on the TV screen, allowing users to become even more immersed in Wii game play. Designed for easy attachment to the Wii Remote controller which is sold separately.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Makes the Wii even more fun
I’ve only been using it for a few days, but it seems to be working just fine. I got one with the Wii Sports Resort game, and I grabbed another from Amazon for 2-person play. I also use it with the Tiger Woods 10 game. It seems to make the 3-dimensional movement of the Wii controller a lot more accurate (not including the IR-based pointing actions). It’s easy to hook up, and it doesn’t require its own batteries. I don’t know why Nintendo didn’t just design the original Wii controller better to begin with.

It’s only an inch or two long, but the added length on the Wii remote makes it easier to hold with 2 hands for games like Swordplay or Golf. It is also possible to connect the MotionPlus and the Wii Nunchuck together for games that use both. Once connected, there’s really no reason to remove the MotionPlus. Now that I think about it, though, I bet it would interfere with something like an automatic battery charging cradle. But it’s easy enough to connect and disconnect as needed.

If you don’t have any games that specifically require the MotionPlus accessory, then I wouldn’t worry about purchasing it. But, for the games that have been designed for it, I think it results in much more accurate and fun gameplay.

3 Stars Motion Plus?
This product works and I have not had any issues. However, I am not sure if you really need this product for certain games. It seems as if it would work just fine without it. I am not sure if the game will let you proceed without it though.

1 Star With or Without it?
The Wii MotionPlus is so new that the only review I have is for the Wii Sports Resorts. I really didn’t notice much of a difference with or without the control. Evidentally, it’s suppose to be more sensitive with the motions you make while playing the game. I can’t tell you one way or the other since you can’t play sports resort without it. So, I’ll have to wait for other games for this control before I really make a decision.

5 Stars Get in motion!
How do you take a great planform and make it even better? MotionPlus! I hope more games take advantage of this advance for the Wii.
