I have a first party Wii Motion Plus that seems to need recalibrating way more than should be necessary. As in recalibrating is necessary every 5 minutes with this thing. Oddly enough, moving the remote around in a circle (as in "drawing" an imaginary circle in the air with the tip of the remote) seems to help somehow. Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong with this, or is this normal? UPDATE: After trying it with a different Wii Remote, it seems to stay much more calibrated, but it still drifts a little bit. I also took the jacket off, so it's possible that that helped. I have no way to be sure which, though.
