Dead Space: Extraction is sure to be one of the hottest games this year released for Nintendo’s Wii. Luckily, Visceral Games and EA took the stage at E3 to show off the above trailer showcasing said game.

Unfortunately, it’s under a minute long but it does show off the beautiful visuals of Dead Space: Extraction that are sure to push the Wii’s graphical capabilities.

However, it does show some gameplay which, from the brief looks of it, looks to be pretty damn fun. Dead Space: Extraction will be out for the Nintendo Wii on September 29th of this year.

Wii Dead Space to use MotionPlus

It was recently announced that EA’s upcoming Wii titled, Dead Space: Extraction will in fact use the new MotionPlus technology.

But what will it be used for? Considering the game is an FPS and the Wiimote has pretty much no problem interpreting basic aiming, is the MotionPlus really necessary?

Well, maybe there will be other weapons in the game like a crowbar or something of the sort that would take advantage of the MotionPlus technology. I guess we’ll have to wait and find out when it ships at the end of this year.
