Wii MotionPlus may release before June 18

Nintendo had stated a few months back that Wii Sports Resort and Wii MotionPlus would be shipping together in Spring 2009. Yet, both products have failed to make any of Nintendo’s recent press releases, and thus the release dates of the two items are completely up the air. However, with some investigating, it looks like MotionPlus could be on the way before June 18.

One of the feature articles in the latest issue of Nintendo Power is about EA’s Grand Slam Tennis. Here’s an official blurb from the magazine, which also discusses MotionPlus.

“Thomas Singleton (EA) and his Vancouver-based team hope to take things to the next level, thanks in no small part to the Wii MotionPlus accessory (due out prior to Grand Slam’s release).”

Now, EA’s website for the game says the game will be out before June 18. This has to mean that MotionPlus will arrive before then, right?!
