Wii Remote Plus dated for Japan

[trumpet-205]

Is funny how the controllers cost in Japan and in USA.
40 dollars a Wii Remote Plus (same price as original one) and 50 dollars with Flingsmash, instead to 46 and 70 dollars in Japan.

So.. 3DS will be cost around 250 or less.

Except launch price for Wii in NA cost more than what is worth in JP.

There's no problem with a Japanese one on a US wii, right?

Might order one online, I don't have motion plus yet

They didn't shake me down for any money on Wii remotes really. I bought my system used and it came with two Wii remotes and a nunchuck. I don't have any games that support the Wii Motion+ so I didn't buy any remotes addons I may get one later with one built in as they come out here next Sunday, but I don't plan on playing any games that require it (maybe the new Zelda, and that's a big maybe, I hate having to swing my arms like a wild creature trying to get that sword to work, that's why I gave my sister my copy of Twilight Princess for the Wii and just kept the Gamecube version, I only needed it to hack it. My arms were so sore trying to play that).

Yea, not likely to happen.

Regardless, I'll be getting one or two. Hopefully accuracy improves as well.

As some news readers already know that the Wii Remote is even capable for Science ends
