MotionPlus support in Zelda Wii pretty much a guarantee
July 31st, 2009 Posted in News, Posted by Valay, WiiEven before concept art for Zelda Wii was officially shown at E3 2009, a majority of fans were in agreement that the game should support Wii MotionPlus. However, there were some contradicting statements made by Shigeru Miyamoto coming out of E3. During his roundtable event, Miyamoto said that MotionPlus in Zelda Wii would be dependent on the sales of Wii Sports Resort. Then in an interview with Wired, he stated that “The goal at this point is that we would make Wii MotionPlus required in order to play Zelda.”
Zelda followers can rest a bit easier today though, as it’s almost 100% safe to say at this point that MotionPlus will be in Link’s next adventure. Nintendo’s Senior Manager of Product Marketing, Bill Trinen, spoke in a number of different interviews about the peripheral, and provided basically the same type of message – That Miyamoto said at E3 that the next Zelda game for Wii will use MotionPlus. So, I suppose Miyamoto’s original comment at his roundtable is no longer significant.

Glad to see they are making more than one or two games for this accessory! Hopefully every game that comes out starting next year is Motion+ ready!
