Shigeru Miyamoto has recently stated that the extra fidelity provided with the new MotionPlus attachment is only being made available now because it wasnt technically feasible three years ago

Speaking to British newspaper ‘The Telegraph’, Miyamoto has revealed that “It was not technically feasible for the technology to be realized with such a compact size. The fact we are now being able to sell Motion Plus at this price, at this size, is the result of technological advancements in the field of microelectro-mechanical systems, which took place after Wii launched”.

‘Microelectro-mechanical systems?’ sounds pretty damn geeky to us, so we’ll take his word for it.

MotionPlus is already available in Australia, but can be picked up with Wii Sports Resort which hits shelves tomorrow.
