However, a little research shows how finicky gyroscopic technology is. It is easy to fault Nintendo for not including this until now. With the advent of Wii MotionPlus (WMP) this problem has been, mostly, rectified. Missing is a gyroscope which can detect twists and relative position. The problem is the Wii Remote on its own doesn't contain enough sensors to replicate true 1-to-1 movement. On the other side, though, is the Wii Remote itself. On one side, there are lazy developers who seem to port titles from the high-definition systems (or invent absolute garbage) and simply replace button presses with gestures that tend to be hit-and-miss. Proportionally, the Wii has tended to have more so-called "shovel ware" (read: toilet titles) than any other system this side of the big video game crash of the early 1980s. And for the most part, I agree with them. In a recent podcast, the editors spent about an hour expounding upon the woeful state of the Wii. Mercifully, there is a lot on WiiWare these days, but real honest-to-goodness triple-A titles are few and far between and, once again, they tend to come from Nintendo themselves.
The Wii is a popular hit with the sweater-wearing soccer mom crowd and, oh yeah, gamers who are willing to buy only four or five games a year. But does adding a chunky box redeem months of broken promises and control schemes? With Wii Sports Resort, Nintendo is trying to realize the infamous teaser video from almost four years ago. And though we're finally used to its name, it hasn't really lived up to its codename: Revolution. While wildly successful, many gamers-okay, almost every single gamer-have questioned the validity of the Wii. It's been 33 months since the Wii first launched.

WTF Trying to Cycle with my hands equals "Why?" plus "Ow". LOW When Wii MotionPlus doesn't work, it doesn't. HIGH When Wii MotionPlus works, it works. The Revolution… no really, we mean it this time!
