Smash Wii U Is the Wii Motion Plus more responsive for Smash 4?

I know most prefer the Gamecube controller, nevertheless, I was always interested by the idea that you could make a smash attack by just doing a quick shake of the controller in brawl (with the nunchuck attached), but I left out that idea as it ended up having a too slow response time for it being efficient.

But for Smash 4, is it actually better? Have they taken advantage of the Wii Motion Plus of the most recent Wii remote? Would it actually be a viable option, now? Has anyone here made a serious try out of the Wii Remote+nunchuck combo while having the Wii Motion Plus?

As far as I know, the Motion Plus only adds functions to the Wii Remote. It doesn't necessarily enhance it.

Most Wii Remotes sold nowadays have Motion Plus included anyway, so...

I'm pretty sure the Motion Plus doesn't do anything..

So, the detection of smash attack is still as slow as in Brawl?

I don't care that you can do that.

That button layout is way too ****ing weird for a fighting game.

Well, you can't expect motion controls to provide precision in a fighting game.
It doesn't require precision, tough, only a good reaction time. Down, up right left, The Wii remote will have no problem detecting any of those directions and that's all you need to make a smash attack with it.
