LucasArts in Talks to Make MotionPlus Lightsaber Game for Wii?

Aug. 27 7:30 PM by Lynxara

Here's an interesting follow-up on the last LucasArts rumor. This time is the source is the perennial but occasionally dubious Quartermann, so take it for what it is: another rumor, though an interesting one.

Remember earlier this summer when LucasArts finally announced Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- Lightsaber Duels, the lightsaber-wielding Wii game that everyone had been waiting for? And then not a month later, when Nintendo announced WiiMotion Plus during E3? Well, apparently LucasArts hadn't heard anything about this new technology, so Lightsaber Duels will not be implementing it. The understandably ticked-off publisher is already in talks about another Wii lightsaber game that will use MotionPlus for sometime next year, according to our sources

I sort of wonder if this new Star Wars lightsaber game, if it's not lies and vaporware, might use an Original Trilogy setting. It would allow for more "realistic" battles and better use of the MotionPlus support.
