Wii Motion Plus?

    Does anyone have it yet? I was thinking of ordering two of them from play.com but I've had bad experience with them, they usually take a month or so to deliver, so I'm considering getting them in Dublin.

    Just don't know if any of the shops have them yet, and what the prices are. I'd prefer to save myself the hassle of going in to find out they're not stocked in Game, Smyths etc.

    Play has them for 23.50 with free delivery. Pixmania has them for 19 but there's shipping on top of that (12 euro!).

    Bought it yesterday, played Grand Slam Tennis on it, not bad, not sure it's worth the 23 I spent on it though!
    I'll await Red Steel 2 and Wii Sports Resort to see how it really gets on with something more action orientated.

    I got it in Smyths as a package with Grand Slam Tennis. Dunno how much it was on it's own but the game package was €20 more than the game on its own.

    hopefully motionplus will be free or almost free with Wii sports 2.

    I don't think its being sold without motion plus so i'd say about 55€ max

    Tried the Virtua Tennis 2009 and Grand Slam with the new controller.

    I have to say, VT is quite laggy and not very enjoyable, Grand Slam definitely looks better. Can't say I see much of a difference with the new controller though.

    There's no darts game out that is compatible with Motion Plus I think. You should be playin' darts on a dart board not on a console anyway :pac:

    there's a huge difference. I got it yesterday with tiger woods golf. There's one minigame that involves bouncing golfballs in the air with the club. With motion plus the club rotates perfectly, without it, the club barely rotates at all

    dont play my wii a huge amount but i didnt really notice much of a difference with grand slam tennis

    this might be because i didnt try playing the game without the motion plus first though, so there are questionmarks over the technical acceptability of my stance :P
