Title: Wii MotionPlus available Thursday 11 June 2009 - Australia
Post by: zainey on May 19, 2009, 04:38:51 AM

Hi,

I made some enquiries today with my sources (local games shops) and found out the Wii Motion Plus will be released in Australia on Thursday June 11.

I have seen the display boxes for the Wii MotionPlus (with long jacket). The box does not seem as long in reality as it appears in photos. 

The Wii MotionPlus will also come bundled with EA Sports Grand Slam Tennis for a retail price of AU$89.99.

I suppose the release on the Thursday coincides with the weekly retail sales cycle here and general world release.

The retail store catalogues with details should be out a week before then.

Its finally coming. Woo Hoo.

 ;D

In the US is should be here on the 9th. But I might hold off on getting one, see what others think first.

Well I really do not think this will help much at all for IWB, because it's for the motion of the actual wiimote not really how camera views IR Points.  Though for gaming and other projects that use the wiimote as a controller or a motion capture device it will add allot.

Just might thoughts on it.
