Nintendo says it's considering Wiimote with built-in MotionPlus

It's pretty far down on the surprise-o-meter, but it looks like Nintendo is at least considering the possibility of a Wiimote with built-in MotionPlus for further on down the road. That word comes straight from Nintendo's Katsuya Eguchi, who told a developer round table that, "as to looking at whether or not it will be an attachment or built in - we're always looking at how hardware should evolve and where we should take it," and that, "it's something we'll be looking at." Katsuya also insisted that MotionPlus wasn't an acknowledgment that the original Wiimote was somehow lacking, saying that Nintendo is "very happy" with what it did, but that, "of course, you always want more."

Alex you aren't very bright if you argue with people that the PS3 is cheaper than the Wii. Just because Nintendo releases new peripherals does not mean that anyone is required to buy them. I would continue on, but there really is no room for debate..

Less hardware, more games! I think the only Wii game I purchased in 2008 so far was Mario Kart Wii. We're almost 7 months through the year and only 1 game has interested me! I'm certainly not going to give them more money for hardware unless I intend to use it on some games.

How about they produce more wii's instead of making other crappy stuff i won't probably buy.
