Nintendo announces "Motion Plus" add-on

 On the eve of E3, it's Nintendo with the first surprise. Today, they announced "Motion Plus," which they say will offer "more comprehensive tracking of a player’s arm position and orientation." In other words, a 1:1 connect between the WiiMote and the action on the screen. Obviously it remains to be seen how well it works, but our immediate thought was that those saber melees in The Force Unleashed may have just gotten a lot cooler.
