Biggest Disappointment of 2009: Rare gutted into a Natal shit-factory
Most Anticipated Game of 2010: Dead Rising 2

Can't vote for Natal or Wand for the 2009 awards anyway, unless it's for the news story. They're not out yet.

I keep forgetting that Motion Plus is actually out too.

Just like Nintendo.

Exactly why I wouldn't vote for it as an innovation as even Nintendo has basically forgotten it already. There's no doubt it would improve Wii games tenfold (the games that do use it have been amazing, especially the criminally-forgotten Grand Slam Tennis) but since no strawberry floater bothers with it and continues to roll out the tripe every week, it doesn't deserve the award.

I gave Grand Slam Tennis the innovation award for actually integrating accurate, fun motion-control into a game with nuance and substance.

Much better than the tech-demo mini-games in Wii Sports Resort. :shifty:

Motion Plus is basically faulty, it often needs resetting in game and Nintendo knows this as they issue instructions for when that happens, they should recall it and release it when it works.
