Peter Moore on Wii MotionPlus

“I certainly played Tennis a lot up in Vancouver with the Wii Motion Dongle attached and in simplistic terms if you think about the normal movement you get with the Wii remote, you know you can sit on your couch and flick your wrist and you get the same reaction as if you stand up and do a full swing playing golf or tennis. What the Wii Motion plus allows you to do is do a true authentic sports motion. When you swing the racquet and you bring it back for an overhead lob or smash, then that is reflected. The amount of sensitivity that now brings allows true sports motion. It’s the same with golf. What you can do with Wii Motion Plus is truly bring it back, swing through the club and then it allows you to hit draws, fades and hooks. The really astute golfer can address the ball as he or she would in a real golf game. While the game will play as well as any other game with the current Wii remote, when you get it with the motion plus device, it becomes spectacular. I’ve hit spins, lobs and drop shots playing Tennis in Vancouver.” – Peter Moore

MotionPlus is definitely one of the best things to happen to the Wii…And it sounds like Peter Moore is a fan as well. MotionPlus will not only help precision in Grand Slam Tennis, but Tiger Woods as well.

Thanks to A P. A P for the news tip.
