Ashley Posted April 14, 2009 Author Posted April 14, 2009 So presuming $1=£1 as it usually does to get a 'complete' controller its going to cost what, £70-80 now? :/ Anyway yay I suppose. May pick it up eventually but im one of those abnormal Wii owners who seldom plays Wii Sports.
Serebii Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 Don't forget, IIRC Nintendo said they're planning to release Wii Motion Plus in a bundle replacing Wii Remotes alone
James McGeachie Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 $20 for Motionplus is cheaper than I was expecting. Considering what a joke they've been with Europe lately though that will undoubtedly convert to £20 here, although seeing as how it's only 1.46:1 for the Dollar to Pound now that wont be quite as insulting as it would've been in the past. I'll expect Wii Sports Resort to be £34.99.
Ike Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 Looks like I'll be waiting for Wii Sports Resort since I'm not interested in the other games, and getting WMP without a game that uses it is pretty pointless.

ShadowV7 Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 If that happens afterall i'm performing surgery on WM+. Not having that piece of crap over my controller.
Shino Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 I'll be getting the bundle, seems quite affordable. And it doesn't look that bad. I don't know what's everyone's problem with the condom.
ShadowV7 Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 (edited) I don't like protection. Edited April 14, 2009 by ShadowV7
RedShell Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 If that happens afterall i'm performing surgery on WM+. Not having that piece of crap over my controller.Well going by the pics that Dante posted, Wii MotionPlus ain't going anywhere without his jacket, not without one hell of an operation anyway. I wouldn't be at all surprised if it was super glued to that thing. While I'm not a fan of the covers (purely because they make changing the batteries a hassle) I think I'd rather have them on for use with WMP. The reason being that even the Nunchuck connection gets pretty loose after a while, I frequently find myself 'fixing' the connection while playing a game that requires lots of movement. Not that it disconnects from the Wii Remote, just that it comes apart slightly. So I imagine with something that's bigger and heavier, i.e.. WMP, the chances of it being loose, or even disconnecting altogether will be a lot higher. But by having it moulded in to the jacket, it'll feel much more secure.
david.dakota Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 hmm at this: I honestly wouldn't mind the jackets if they didn't look quite so much like a translusent penis- i mean look at the bulbus end to it. Honestly, Nintendo. And the hassle battery change is ridiculous. Why has no one come up with a better jacket?
Shino Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 Lol, its form its an unfortunate by-product of how good it is.
lostmario Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 Does that mean we'll be getting the 3rd generation wrist straps with it??
ShadowV7 Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 I'm getting mine out of there. You doing the same as me then :awesome:
Retro_Link Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 Yeah, what'll be needed? looks like there's two screws to come out, may have to cut the plastic; whats the piece in the middle, something you'll need to press in on either side to release it?
Diageo Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 I even took the the wrist straps off cuz they were annoying me, that condom ain't staying!
darksnowman Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 Does that mean we'll be getting the 3rd generation wrist straps with it?? Wrist straps that come inside jackets too? I wouldn't rule it out.
DuD Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 How often do you guys change your batteries??? i really don't mind the design of the Wii-dom, and its slight bit of extra girth makes the remote abit easier to grip. I wonder how many more add-ons there are going to be that will slot into the back of the remote. We'll end up waggling something the size of our forearms by the time the Wii2 comes out :p
Emasher Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 I think I'll be taking it off as well. You'd think it would be enough to wear the wrist straps, I mean, why do people actually swing it that hard that they even needed the re-enforced ones. The locking wrist straps are also annoying. Hopefully the Wii HD's controllers don't have something like this permanently attached to them.
Retro_Link Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 Change 'em whenever they need recharging, which isn't all that often. It's more the fact that I don't like holding/and the feel of the Wii-mote with the cover on. I think the cover was unneccesary in the first place!
Emasher Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 We should call the Mainstream media up and tip them off that Nintendo is giving away condoms with their controllers.
Diageo Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 its not gonna fit in the charging dock with that think on!
