Are Wii games easier then other consoles games?

I know lots of people are saying that the wii is for the "casual" gamer, but does that mean that the games are too easy? I still don't understand the label the wii is getting because their are a lot of challenging games out their. Try playing Fire Emblem on hard or even normal mode and then tell me if the game is too easy. Or even try Trauma Center and then tell me if you werent sweating at all. I know their are some games that my cats can play but their is still a large number of good, difficult games out their.

So tell my your thoughts on the difficulty of the Wii games.

Every single review I've read/seen on youtube says Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn is almost impossible. In fact, that's the only reason I haven't tried it.LordQuorthon

some on the wii are easier for a novice gamer to pick up than on other systems (madden is a good example of this) but just because its easier to pick up doesnt mean all together its easier...its like Othello... A minute to learn, A lifetime to masterag1052

true that i was gonna say the same thing

Well the only way to get a fair comparison would be to look at games on all three platforms and compare those. In my opinion, the Wii version is usually the hardest because the developer doesn't take the time to refine the controls.Zombie_Eric

this is also true sadly

the games are just as hard as on any other console, mario galaxy was pretty hard, and no more hereos on bitter was crazy hard.ninjavelmor

Fact.

Anyway, a game is only really difficult when you don't have enough experience with it. Mario Galaxy was pretty difficult for me to get used to and now it's no big deal.

Street Fighter 3rd Strike, Secret of Mana, Punch Out!! were all incredibly difficult games when I first tried tried them. Now that I've played them for years, I could, with my eyes closed (actually, not really). Hell, I have a friend who can beat Contra without dying once, and I can beat Super Castlevania IV, now, without a GameOver.

Games are generally easier now than they were previous consoles.

I don't think Wii games are the only ones.

it just depends on the game, but a good majority of games on the wii are for casual players, so alot of wii games are easy. But some games have harder learning curves on the wii then on the 360, so i'm not sure.

I haven't played a lot of Wii games but they aren't very hard. Though any game that requires precision or lots of action with the Wiimote is harder simply because the tech isn't that accurate yet.capthavic

of course i'm talking about well developed titles mind you.

This is a bit sad but i found Eledees hard!!!killeryoda85

I almost thought you were a troll.

Casual Gamer = Someone who wants to game without investing hours upon hours regularly like "harcore" (addicted) gamers. It has nothing to do with skill, but it really gets down to "How short can my periods of playtime be?".

Usually casual gamers are not interested in online competitive games since the time investment is too much for them, and you need that in order to compete or get the full satisfaction of playing (WoW is a prime example.)

And lastly, as mindblowing as it sounds... Casual gamers and Hardcore gamers... Generally play the same games! Shocking, I know. The casual gamer will just take longer to move from one game to the next.
