Does problems arise with no MotionPlus in the nunchuck?

" Can Ninty add MotionPlus to the nunchuck as well? They wont, or haven’t mentioned it at least, but of course, anything can happen until the release of the MotionPlus peripheral next year.
"

Thats what I'm wondering.
From what i understand is that the Gyroscopes in combination with the ACC in the Wii-mote can return values of movements.
So still wondering if the same is done with the Nunchuck.

I hope it fixes the nunchuk. It has the worst, most piss-poor motion sensing ever.

I can see it now...

"Introducing our newest peripheral, the Wii MotionPlus addon! Now on sale for $15!

Next year...

"Introducing our latest addon, the MotionPlus Nunchuk! This is a completely new Nunchuk that was redesigned to utilize MotionPlus! Now on sale for $30!

Following 4 months...

"Wish your MotionPlus Chuk was wireless? Now introducing the Wireless MotionPlus Nunchuk! Now on sale for $35!"

Please don't disappoint me Nintendo. I already bought 3 of your bongos a few years back and sorely regretted that soon later... I don't want to cough up this much just for awesome 1:1 control.

I think the motion plus was a great idea!

Product6467d ago

well the wii remote sends information to nunchuck so its possible that just having the nunchuck connected to the motion plus could in turn increase its performance.

ChickeyCantor6467d ago

Is it not the other way around?
I mean The Wii-mote is the transmitter of data.
Would it not be more logical that he Nunchuck would provide data for the Wii-mote to sent it to the Wii?
...I really hope Nunchuck will have a 1:1 because then i can't wait for a boxing game =(.

But that is not proper English right there.

'Does Problems'?

LossTheEarthbreaker6466d ago

I would add that the poor grammar is not proper english, either.

Thankfully, you only need to read the headline to get the picture.

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai21d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.

Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire (1996) Still Feels Like Peak 90s Star Wars

This game along with Rogue Squadron got me into to Star Wars. The release of special edition VHS Star Wars collection was perfectly times on top of all that. 😆

Redgrave52d ago

Because it is.

Please re-release this.

SimpleSlave52d ago (Edited 52d ago )

But it wasn't. Although I do agree that some of the tie-in media, like the novels and comics, were pretty good.

Still, games like Dark Forces, Jedi Knight, Rogue Squadron, and the space sims were peak 90s Star Wars. Shadows fell flat because of the abysmal controls and unimaginative levels. And if you wanted to really experience the seedy side of the universe, Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 was peak, and it wasn't even close.

Regardless, and much to my dismay, we got the better version thanks to Ubislop in Outlaws, which is what Shadows should've been, albeit at a smaller scale.

As a kid me and my cousins loved this game . I have great memories with this one and the Star Wars pod racer game .
