Will a Motion+ Zelda Actually Work?

One complaint I've heard now that the WiiMotion+ is out is that you constantly have to recallibrate it. This would be a huge problem in a Zelda game since it has a huge focus on Combat. So, if you have to recallibrate a lot, wouldn't that ruin the whole experience? I can see how it'd be good for arrows and boomerangs, and certainly swordplay sounds good on paper, but will it actually work?

well swordplay seems to work well enough Wii Sports Resort

I think it could be done, though they may limit it it's usefulness...

That whole constant recalibration thing is a bunch of nonsense especially the ones that were saying every 10 secs. I think the only reason you would do it in GST is because after every point you have to restart so to say. Look at Red Steel 2 there was no mention of any recalibration in all the hands on.

That's true I haven't thought of that. I'm still not too familiar with the Motion+ yet. I've just heard from people that say, VT, requires a lot of recalibration.

It's true that callibration has to happen often, but this can run in the background. For instance, everytime you hold the wiimote strait up, the game will auto-recalibrate. Calibration only takes one second after all.

it's a nintendo wii peripheral developed by nintendo itself being used in teh nintendo first-party title. relax, man. it will work. :P

The wiimote knows, and wiimote never gets uncalibrated because of it's tilt sensors. The wiimote is pointed up, or down, or whatever is best for the game, then the wiimote tells M+ that it's in the calibration position. M+ then recalibrates assuming it has a second or so of time to do so.

Remember, the wiimote and M+ are two different devices communicating with eachother.

[QUOTE="snowman6251"] how does it know you're holding it straight up though if it was uncalibrated and that's why it needed to be calibrated in the first place :( I've never used M+ so I don't know what I'm talking about but I heard about the need to calibrate it a lot too and that would be a serious killer in terms of flow in gameplay if you had to set your wiimote down every 15 seconds to be able to play the game right.snowman6251

ah so they're in cahoots to secretly adjust their settings together. Clever stuff. Combine communicating machines like these with the creepy AI of Milo and boom, terminators.snowman6251

Can't you think for yourself?
Does recalibrating every 10-15 seconds REALLY sounds credible? :|

If it needs to be recalibrated a lot, Zelda might work well, but the re-callibration would get annoying...
