E3 brought first of all an upgrade to the Wii remote - the MotionPlus, which plugs into the Wii remote and offers more intuitive in-game movements, something that Wii fans have expected to find since launch, but better late than never…

The MotionPlus accessory “redefines game control” for more accurate moves in 3D space, supported by an accelerometer and a sensor bar that better track the player’s arm position and orientation. The result is a 1:1 response in game play, with even the slightest moves of the player rendered identically on the screen.

Bundled with the upgraded remote will be Wii Sports Resort (scheduled to be released in spring 2009), which will include new game experiences such as Sword Play (demoed at E3), Power Cruising on a water scooter, and Disc Dog, all along with the Wii MotionPlus accessory and the Wii Remote Jacket for no additional cost.
