Even though the Wii Motion Plus was announced in a press release prior to e3, I find myself drawn to it more and more. Perhaps its the total lack of new content announced this year at e3 but after seeing it demoed in the Nintendo Press Conference it looks REAL strong but knowing Nintendo they're going to pull out some dick shit after this thing is released here are my predictions and my hopes:
Predictions
1) Original Wii controller will eventually be phased out to incorporate the technology inside the add on.
2) Nunchuck which is now rather gimpy will get a version 2.0, unless the Wii motion plus somehow effects the nunchuck as well. The Nunchuck 2.0 probably get announced at next e3 along with complete controller redesign mentioned in 1 which will extend the by then ancient hardware of the Wii's lifespan even further.
3) Fully upgraded Wii controller inclusive of Wii Motion Plus and Nunchuck 2.0 will be compatible with next Nintendo system.
Hopes
1) Battery life doesn't suck
2) Generates more 3rd party games that are worth playing despite Wii's appalling graphics
3) I win the lottery and just have more damn time to play the machine.
