Simple, intuitive, easy to use. The Wii Remote Plus is a unique controller for the Wii and Wii U video game systems, now with the increased sensitivity of the Wii Motion Plus built in. The button pressing of typical controllers is replaced by the natural, fluid motion of your hand. The Wii remote senses your every moment and makes you feel less like a player and more like you're part of the game! With Wii, anyone can play. Some games may require additional accessories, sold separately. Wii Remote Plus gyroscope technology provides on-the-fly rotational motion recognition, once available only to Wii players who purchased the additional Wii MotionPlus accessory for the Wii Remote. The Wii Remote Plus controller contains all these motion-capturing capabilities within the body of a single controller. To top it off the Wii Remote Plus controller maintains the same compatibility to games as the Wii Remote, so you can play most of your old favorites with it. It is also the same size as the Wii remote. Taken together this means no more extra accessories to buy in order to experience the full effect of past or future games designed to take advantage of advanced Wii MotionPlus technology; no more compatibility issues with existing Wii Remote peripherals and skins. Just sync up your Wii Remote Plus controller and have at it.
Moving forward the Wii Remote Plus is the standard Wii controller, shipping with all consolesIncorporates the functionality of the original Wii Remote and that of the Wii MotionPlus accessory in a single controllerComes in a variety of attractive colors, many of which match existing Wii console color schemesMaintains the same compatibility and backwards compatibility as the original Wii Remote, meaning that you can use it to play these games even if the game contains no advanced motion-control features
Key Features
The Wii MotionPlus was conceived soon after the completion of the initial Wii Remote design,
to address developer demand for more capable motion sensing, but was only announced after the sensors could be purchased in sufficient volume at a reasonable price
During a developer roundtable discussion at E3 2008, Wii Sports Resort producer Katsuya Eguchi discussed the potential influence of the Wii MotionPlus on the Wii's existing market, stating that Nintendo was looking at whether the MotionPlus capability will be built into the Wii Remote in the future, or kept "as an attachment we only use for certain software.
Nintendo ultimately chose the former by releasing the Wii Remote Plus in late 2010.
