Nintendo has been calling for third-party developers to re-tool their games to fit the Wii MotionPlus add-on.
Today, Ubisoft answered their call; but LucaArts won't comment.
Last week, Nintendo executive vice president of sales and marketing Cammie Dunaway had told Gamelife that she hoped upcoming Wiimote-centric titles like "Samba De Amigo" and "Star Wars Clone Wars" would have "rapid second versions" in order to "take advantage of the Wii MotionPlus capabilities."
MTV Multiplayer reached out to LucasArts who had no comment on whether they'd be adapting a second version of "Clone Wars," which is slated for November, to use the MotionPlus add-on. We've also put in a request to Sega regarding "Samba De Amigo" and will update you as soon as we hear back.
Meanwhile, Ubisoft executive director Alain Corre revealed to gamesindustry.biz that the company will be making the controls for "Red Steel 2" adapt to the new MotionPlus add-on.
This announcement marks "Red Steel 2," which has been in development for "many months," as the first third-party title to use the MotionPlus add-on since the device was unveiled at E3 earlier this month.
Readers, which Wii games, if any, would you like to see re-vamped with the new MotionPlus controls?
[UPDATE 7/30: A Sega spokesperson told us by e-mail on Wednesday that it is too early to comment on how the company will integrate the Wii MotionPlus Controller.]
