New Wii Remote Plus Bundled With FlingSmash
You Probably Get FlingSmash, Too!

For most of us, this is probably the first time we're hearing about FlingSmash, an upcoming Wii action game from Artoon, but it won't be the last. It's not because of the game, either; it's because of what comes with the game. GameSpot's listing for FlingSmash shows the game's box art, which illustrates the bonus item found within, a Wii Remote Plus.
Based on its name and the fact that FlingSmash is compatible with the Wii Motion Plus, we're assuming that the Wii Remote Plus is a self-contained Wii Remote an Motion Plus add-on. The product's description actually seems to refute this, advising players to "Attach the Wii MotionPlus accessory to your Wii Remote controller to precisely fling and smash your way through enemies and past barriers with a fun combination of racket motions and pinball gameplay," but we're guessing it's just an oversight.
At $50, this seems like a great way to supplement your Wii controllers and get a game at the same time. I, for one, find the Wii Remote a bit too long when the Motion Plus is attached, so I'll definitely be giving this bundle a look. FlingSmash isn't exactly the kind of game towwards which I tend to gravitate, and it might eve be terrible, but the Remote/Motion Plus pack costs $50, anyway, so it's like getting a game for free.

So the Wiimote they should have been selling the whole time will finally be available? And I'll get to pay for it again? Sweet.
flingsmash is an awesome name for a game. it might also be an accurate way to describe what kids playing this will do with their remotes.
also, nintendo? when are you gonna give up the ghost and just call it a "wiimote"?
