Reggie comments on Wii MotionPlus date, capabilities
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 4 Comments
Reggie Fils-Aime, President of Nintendo of America, finally took a few moments to answer questions relating to Wii MotionPlus. He has commented on the release date of Wii MotionPlus and spoke on how Wii MotionPlus’ capability “is far in excess” than what Nintendo had demonstrated at E3.
“We haven’t announced the full spring line-up… And it feels like winter in Seattle right now…You know we don’t comment on rumor and speculation [Grand Slam Tennis/MotionPlus bundle]…The status of Motion Plus is consistent with what we talked about at E3. “Wii Sports Resort” looks great. I’ve played it…I played it two weeks ago. It looks phenomenal…[Better than it was at E3]…The level of full motion capability is far in excess of what we showed at E3.”
