Is motion plus support still planned?

Juuuust to be clear, Dolphin has never had Motion Plus emulation! There was a custom build that had it during the 3.0 era, but the edits within it were rejected from Dolphin master for having poor quality code, not even attempting to meet Dolphin's style guide, and not meeting Dolphin's code merging guidelines. It was also highly unintuitive to set up and use, filling this forum with all kinds of posts asking for instructions on how to use it! Many Dolphin devs reached out to the author of the patch, but he made little attempt to address these concerns. So it was never merged into Dolphin master.

If someone was to do it and was willing to work with the developers to create a proper motion plus standard, the developers would probably merge it! Just... don't expect to use the branch as a basis, several Dolphin devs have tried to fix the issues of the motion plus branch themselves, and couldn't make heads or tails of the code in it!
