This title requires the Wii MotionPlus add-on

Confused by "This title requires the Wii MotionPlus add-on", isn't that no longer the case since MotionPlus is now emulated? I presume some titles may still not work well with the the MotionPlus emulation, but that should probably be handled alternately. Kolano (talk) 09:05, 3 May 2019 (CEST)

The titles that use this template require either an emulated MotionPlus or a real MotionPlus. What I mean by that is that if you use an emulated Wii Remote and turn off the "Attach MotionPlus" setting, or use a real Wii Remote with no MotionPlus plugged in, the game will not work. Maybe the "add-on" wording could use some clarification? Because while you do need MotionPlus, you don't need the physical add-on anymore. JosJuice (talk) 21:41, 3 May 2019 (CEST)

Non-Required Titles

Could there be a variant of this for games that can use Motion+ but don't require it? Thinking of games like GoVacation. JMC4789 (talk) 13:43, 12 January 2017 (CET)

Should be possible. We've tried to avoid them for most Problem templates, but perhaps we want to just use a variable to distinguish the subtlety different needed text in one template. Kolano (talk) 01:12, 13 January 2017 (CET)

Um... A problem template is not the right way to go about it... This problem exists because there is a hard barrier for entry that Dolphin cannot emulate - motion plus. It is vital to inform users of that with a problem tempalte! But if it is possible but not required, how is that a problem?. Users can still emulate it fine. Imo, this should be a note in the description, or a "motion plus optional" category. That would be less overt and still accessible. - MayImilae (talk) 12:09, 13 January 2017 (CET)

We need an "Emulation Info" shared issue template to handle these. Kolano (talk) 06:32, 3 March 2018 (CET)
