Because it's a simple marketing technique by giving motivation with a lame peripheral. I honestly think that the Wii has the most attachments to it than any other console.Tyeforce said:What does that have to do with anything?-Aaron said:Then how do you explain that almost all of them is bundled with a device?Tyeforce said:That is completely untrue. >_>-Aaron said:No. You are now aware that all the Wii __________ titles are glorified tech demos.

Nintendo doesn't make new peripherals just to rake in money, they do it to create a richer gameplay experience. Let's take a look at the Wii series games that come bundled with peripherals...solgineer said:Because it's a simple marketing technique by giving motivation with a lame peripheral.

Your way of thinking is backwards. Miyamoto didn't make Wii Fit and say "hey, I bet this would sell better if we include some sort of peripheral with it". No, he created the Balance Board and Wii Fit together because he wanted to make a game that measured your weight and balance, and creating the Balance Board was necessary for such a game. The same goes for Wii Motion Plus; it was created to expand on the Wii's motion controls and give another dimension of input to games, not just to be an incentive to buy Wii Sports Resort.-Aaron said:Wii Sports: Let's have the consumers have a taste of what the Wii can do in terms of motion technology.Tyeforce said:What does that have to do with anything?-Aaron said:Then how do you explain that almost all of them is bundled with a device?Tyeforce said:Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
Wii Sports Resort: Let's put a game where players can test our new motion sensing device.
Wii Fit: Let's see how the new balance board does.
Wii Fit Plus: Looks like the balance board can do different things. Let's see what other things it can do.
Wii Play: Alright, the Wii can handle turn-based gameplay properly. We'll add in an extra remote and see how it handles simultaneous gameplay.
The Wii Balance Board and Wii Motion Plus have many uses outside of Wii Fit and Wii Sports Resort... And even if that wasn't the case, Wii Fit and Wii Sports Resort make full use of them, so what is there to complain about?solgineer said:>mfw reading that
And 3/4 of them are still useless aside from those games.
Having things laying around I'll never use again outside of that game.Tyeforce said:The Wii Balance Board and Wii Motion Plus have many uses outside of Wii Fit and Wii Sports Resort...

Then what were you implying?-Aaron said:What. Are you sure it's not your way of thinking that's backwards? Not once did I imply in my post that they created the Motion Plus so consumers can have incentive to buy Sports Resort.
going to go out on a limb and say the exact opposite.Tyeforce said:Then what were you implying?-Aaron said:What. Are you sure it's not your way of thinking that's backwards? Not once did I imply in my post that they created the Motion Plus so consumers can have incentive to buy Sports Resort.
They're far from "tech demos", and it should be obvious enough that I don't even have to begin to explain why. Just because they introduced a new peripheral doesn't mean that they're "tech demos".Psychonaut said:going to go out on a limb and say the exact opposite.Tyeforce said:Then what were you implying?-Aaron said:What.

that wii sports resort was made as a tech demo for the motion plus.
also, yoshi touch & go = oh god what, this is the whole game?
yoshi's touch and go is borderline tech demo.Tyeforce said:They're far from "tech demos", and it should be obvious enough that I don't even have to begin to explain why.

We weren't talking about Yoshi Touch & Go, we were talking about the Wii series... And I can't say anything about Yoshi Touch & Go, because I haven't played it.Psychonaut said:yoshi's touch and go is borderline tech demo.Tyeforce said:They're far from "tech demos", and it should be obvious enough that I don't even have to begin to explain why.

the game was shown as a tech demo at e3 when the ds was unveiled, IIRC.
add in three other modes of scoring, and you've got a game.
