I voted for the 'with an EA Sports title' option since I got my first one with the Grand Slam Tennis bundle (only available in PAL regions). Afterwards, I bought the Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 bundle on launch day here, and then last Saturday traded for Wii Sports Resort. Now only one my remotes is without an enlargement!

Just got one with Wii Sports Resort

My god though, it was hard to get a hold of one. Everywhere I went was sold out, and didnt even have Stand Alone Wii MotionPlus'.

I ended up getting Wii Sports Resort from a little games shop that is little know for £30.00

Not to shabby, huh?

I bought Wii MotionPlus with Wii Sports Resort, then I went out of my way to buy another MotionPlus because Wii Sports Resort is just that fun.

I'm really liking those black 'motes, so I may pick one of those up. They comes with M+ as far as I know. I think I already have a second M+ lying around somewhere unopened, so I may just trade it in (unless there's some reason I can't think of that I might want more than 2 of them...).

- Maybe Red Steel 2 splitscreen multiplayer.

- Wii Sports Resort Canoeing

- Next Zelda (or other good game) with multiplayer?

I don't know, if you have 4 Wiimote's and play multiplayer often you should keep your second M+ since you don't know what the future holds..

That's what I mean, I want two of them, but not three. I would be taking my second M+ back to exchange it for the black 'mote & M+ combo, still having two in the end.

So far I can only ever see it being useful to have two of them. But like you said, you never know.

I won't buy a Wii MotionPlus at all, even if future games forces me to use that. To me, it's Nintendo's fault that the WiiMote isn't good enough already.

Er, that line of reasoning totally doesn't make sense at all?

For one, the Wii remote was good enough already, for its intended purpose. MotionPlus adds functionality. If people thought the remote should have that functionality in the first place, then that is those people's failing, not the remote's failing.

For two, because you object to the idea of Nintendo updating/enhancing their product, you're going to protest by continuing to use the product to which you object in the first place?

Anyway, suit yourself!

I definitely can't wait to see how awesome the next Zelda game is with MotionPlus!

Well when the Wii was first released the MEMS gyroscope technology were too expensive & chews thru power so Nintendo had to settle for the cheaper accelorometer used in the Wii Remotes .
Since then the gyrosope technology greatly reduced in production cost & improvements in the technology greatly reduced the power consumption thus makes it feasible to produce the motion plus attachment .
Wii Sport Resorts shows that the Motion plus gyroscope & the Wii Remotes accellorometer working together greatly improves the motion sensing .
In my opinion the Wii Motion Plus for the win .

I did end up taking my second MotionPlus in to exchange it for the black Wii Remote / MotionPlus combo. Pretty good deal. All told, it means the remote itself only cost me $30.

Have you guys seen something on Zelda that clues you in on the possibility of WiiMotion + support for the game? If so, point me in that direction please....

I remember I was originally going to get one for each Wii controller I own. So far I've only got one myself and then played with people who either bought Wii Sports Resort themselves or had it bought for them.

I wonder when/if the integrated controllers will be coming out.
