Plastic guitar holsters mean you can't plug in the MotionPlus peripheral...

Following the confirmation that SEGA's Virtua Tennis 2009 is the latest title to gain MotionPlus compatibility, SEGA
sent along details of the Championship Pack version heading exclusively to Wii.
Rather than the customary 'Making Of...' DVD or artbook, the Championship Pack offers two plastic racquet shaped holsters to plug in a Wii Remote and simulate the real thing... the only problem is you won't be able to enjoy the MotionPlus enhancements if you do so.
Small print on the packaging for the keen-eyed states:
"Racquet accessory not compatible with Wii MotionPlus controller add-on."
With no space in the racquet for where the MotionPlus attachment plugs in, you have to ask yourself the question:
Is swinging around a plastic racquet more authentic than the improved simulation of movement that MotionPlus promises to bring?

I'd stick to the conventional, more responsive and less effort control-method of a joypad (ps3/60) thanks!... :)

If you actually check out the high res artwork of the packaging, you can quite clearly make out the small print:
"Racquet accessory not compatible with Wii MotionPlus controller add-on."

And how would you know, given that you're looking at concept artwork for the packaging?
Guessing to make up headlines is so not cool.

I am a big fan of Virtua Tennis 3 and I love to play Tennis, but I was just wondering, why don't any of the Tennis Video Games include Novak Djokovic in their games, he's not my favorite player but he is ranked in the Top three in the Tennis rankings, why doesn't any game include Novak in it. It would be nice to place as Novak Djokovic in the game or beat him in a Tennis Video game.
I would really like to see Novak Djokovic and Andy Rod[#@!?] in Virtua Tennis 2009.
