Review on Enhance Your Gaming Experience with Wii MotionPlus by Born Waheed

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Doesn't stand out, doesn't bother

I have nothing good to say about this product as you don't really want to notice this accessory and don't want it to get in the way. We've used this with the Wii Sports Resort and based on extreme enjoyment of the Wii Sports Resort I would say this accessory is a hit. My 11-year-old son immediately noticed that the Wiimote had gotten a little bigger as a result, but never commented on it again. I didn't notice any difference and we quickly got into the game without thinking about the controller (as it should). One of the surprises was that Wii Sports Resort actually required MotionPlus for each player (I mistakenly assumed it was optional), so be sure to buy one for each player. For example, if you want 3 or 4 player games in Wii Sports Resort, you need 3 or 4 of them. This is not an option if a player has had a bad experience. Likewise, you need 3 or 4 Nunchuk if you want to play in some games with 3 or 4 players. My only complaint is that it seems like it should drain the Wiimote's battery, and Wiimotes already drain batteries far too quickly. I guess I just need to invest in some rechargeable batteries. Finally, please note that there is a temporary special Wii Sports Resort pack that includes TWO MotionPlus accessories. So buy the packs first before buying them individually.
