Those who followed the various announcements at E3 earlier this month probably recall the news of the Wii MotionPlus, which Nintendo said would finally bring true one-to-one motion sensing to the console, rather than the limited pointer-tracking and simple motion controls we've had so far.

Does the new add-on deliver? See for yourself in this video that AiLive (the company who helped Nintendo develop the MotionPlus) posted earlier this week...

Loads of new news from Microsoft on the console front today. First off, and most importantly (to people like me who haven't actually bought one yet, that is), yesterday they announced a $50 price cut on the 20GB model to clear stocks in preparation for a new 60GB model; some stores are even running special deals to put a machine in your hands even cheaper.

Also announced today is an upcoming overhaul to the console's dashboard system, which will have a gallery-like design and the addition of cartoon avatars (cough).

Finally, Microsoft has also made a deal with Netflix to bring streaming rentals straight to the console--no more watching movies on the computer!
