Yup, there was one "try me" in a store near me, I managed to play a bit the game pack that comes with the main move controller.

It seems like an enhanced version of the Wii controler. The controller in itself is more accurate and precise than the Wiimote and they make use of it in the bundle. It is cool for some minigames like shooting arrows, but in others, like table tennis, I felt it like a pain in the a... neck. Could be just my lack of training, but Wii Sports was much more intuitive to me.

As for use, I find only fit to casual and party games (wich I'm not against, of course, it is always good to have games to play with friends who are less into games). I still prefer to play shooters or platformers, etc with a traditional controller.

Well, I'm having fun with it so far. The only complaints I really have are...

#1. The camera, it's truly bad. It works fine for the Move itself but the image quality is atrocious! It's grainy as hell! I can't make much of a victory pose when I win the Gladiator games when you can hardly see me! :|

#2. If you don't have 5-8 feet to spare in the room you're playing this in, then it's probable that the remotes won't calibrate correctly, making your experience rather frustrating at best. I had so much trouble with Archery and I wasn't sure why til I realized my left remote of all things wasn't calibrated the same way the right one was.

But yeah, the Sports Champions game is really fun to play, and a lot more so if you're playing two-player.
