WTF? is this for real???

if this is then i have a feeling that MS will reveal a motion sensing control that does exactly what the wiimote does... and nintendo released this to make theirs even better!

but really, what would somethign like this go for and what does it mean for upcoming games? or older games even?

will i have to unplug this when playing an older wii game because it'll make things too sensitive, must i use this in upcoming games or can i get away with just a plain ol wiimote??

que ian rant about not being able to play certain games due to need of purchasing another peripheral.

I wonder if this will have any effect on games already made.

EDIT: I see Easycure decided to rant on the same thing I already said. Nothing new here. Kind of wierd that Nintendo's home web site wouldn't know to wait a day before posting that.

Exactly! i feel like this pretty much confirms a "mee too" controller from them.

omg omg omg ... wait, I don't want to be banned before E3!

I feel sooo surprised. I did NOT expect Nintendo to aggressively press their advantage. Ayayay!

Yup, I agree.

Also have to wonder what this is getting packaged with...

I think this is just silly... unless they give these things away it's going to be victim to the same thing MS's solution will/would be...

If everyone doesn't have one, developers won't want to require it...

It'll be packaged with every game that needs it. Force Unleashed will be first.

thats another good thought. Whats the next big nintendo game coming out?

Perhaps it'll be bundled with something that'll be announced at E3 but i doubt they'll drop that big of a bomb. It has to be something huge that everyone plans on getting because they'll get more out there that way... unless its like wiiplay and they release it with a tech demo/mini-game compilation. How much would this retail for alone though??

so many questions!
i hate and love E3

I predict an elaborate fishing mechanic in Animal Crossing that makes use of this....

Since this appears to be a major improvement on the Wii Remote it almost makes me believe that this is going to be packaged with a major title to get it out to a huge group of people. I also wonder if it'll get packaged with a bunch of other games too for the same reason.

1up are carrying the story now, suggesting Punch Out. If anything this confirms that Punch Out will not exist.

Also. Bundled with all new wiis? New bundled gme? Wii sports 2? Games taking double remote control?
