Quote from GoNintendo:
"Follow me on this one, okay? I have a bit of explaining to do...

Earlier today, the online hub for Nintendo Power gave us a two-page preview of their EA Grand Slam Tennis article. While we got our first look at the in-game graphics, we also got to check out a small portion of the EA interview. Within the body of the article, we see this blurb...

Thomas Singleton (EA) and his Vancouver-based team hope to take things to the next level, thanks in no small part to the Wii MotionPlus accessory (due out prior to Grand Slam's release).

Well, I hopped over to the official EA website for Grand Slam Tennis to see if there was a release date for the game...and there is.

June 18th

So...all this pointsto the Wii MotionPlus coming out before June 18th. I wonder if Wii Sports Resort will be there as well..."

_____________
Well, Nintendo said that Wii MotionPlus would come with Wii Sports Resort...so Release date before June 18th?

will you get it?
and if you are, are you going to get enough for all of your controllers?

I plan on doing so...

I WILL BUY THE WMP SEPARATE FROM THE MINIGAME SHOVELWARE.
I refuse to fuel Nintendo's minigame cheapness/greed. But I'll buy them when a WORTHY game uses them... :robotangry: :robotangry: :robotangry: :robotangry:
*mindless rambling continues*

What if they pull a Wii Play, and make it so that if you're buying the accessory you might as well pay like $5 more for a game bundled with it?

I'd rather spend the extra five bucks and buy it separately... that's how aggravated I am with this crappy minigame compilation crap...

Hey, Wii Sports was pretty fun, if a bit foreshadowing.

I don't see a problem with WSP or the accessory. I'll support both.

In terms of when it comes out, I hope it is sometime in April....definite boost to the lull that happens about then.

RUMOR - Nintendo is going to delay the Wii MotionPlus to after June, because they're having a bit of trouble working out some of the kinks.

well that stinks, they said Spring 2009.

I wouldn't mind the delay one bit if it is to work out the kinks - get it right. If it's a senseless delay, than I'll be mad.

It's Nintendo, it's always a senseless delay because they never account for problems and give a date thats always earlier than what they should really say X_X:;

Which is why they should iron out all the kinks/glitches BEFORE they put out a release date.
The hype gets to your head, and when it's delayed you get mad.

"No date was ever announced for MotionPlus - so technically it can't be delayed." - Nintendo UK rep

doesn't that just make you think that Nintendo is so much smarter then you.
