But not with Wii Sports Resort...

Shown back in E3 2008 and originally expected to hit in Spring 2009 bundled with Wii Sports Resort, many have been anticipating the release of the peripheral which will offer true 1:1 controls. But lately it's been all quiet... apart from the fact that we know Ubisoft's Red Steel 2, EA's Grand Slam Tennis, Tiger Woods 2010 and Sega's Virtua Tennis will use the add-on. Now MotionPlus has a release date, but not with a Nintendo title...

Wii MotionPlus is scheduled to hit Europe on July 2nd, bundled with Grand Slam Tennis and will retail for �59.99. Alternatively, Grand Slam Tennis will retail for �49.99 if you don't want to pick up the accessory just yet.
