I got the impression that it wasn't dependent on the game, but the hardware. Meaning, you may see an increase in stability in all games?

Yes, basically. It's making the wiimote more accurate with your movement, meaning if you're like me and your arm shakes without reason, you might notice the little indicator on screen rapidly moving left to right.

True but this new level of accuracy will allow for the creation of more motion-based games, ie. 1:1 sword action

!@#$%, we're !@#$%. Not only will they sell this, but we'll also have to buy the MotionPlus compatible nunchuk, zapper, and maybe a MotionPlus Balance board.

Well, at least the controls will be accurate now instead of some kind of waggly mess.*

Still... I hope this means

1) New Wiimotes will come with the add-on already and older Wiimotes will drop in price

and

2) This add-on allows you to add the other accessories... That way, the compatibility with older Wii games won't be shot down to just those games restricted to the single Wiimote.

Looks like there might be a slot at the bottom of the MotionPlus, probably for nunchuck use.

Why does everyone sound so surprised? The wiimote as it is now is horribly inaccurate; you all knew they were going to do this o.0 I'm kind of glad, but I believe it should be one of those things you get free with a proof of purchase.

I'd say they'd pack them in Wii's from now on, but I wouldn't be surprised if everyone else had to buy it separately.

Then, it would be REALLY NICE if we got it for free :P.
