How hard is it to make a decent FPS for the Wii?

How can you even say that Metroid Prime and it's later renditions aren't FPS??? The entire game is shooting...from the FIRST PERSON perspective! seriously.awperk12

He's right.It isn't a first person shooter.It's a first person adventure.:wink:

i'll second that.

You know I have been thinking about this for sometime. I played Call of Duty 3, and I was quite pleased with the controls and I could see how well it could work.Call of Duty 3 was to busy and the textures were washy, because it was ported from 360 it also suffered from frame rate issues. The Wii needs one truely great FPS to be ported before Developers will make great FPS games for it. The Wii controller works like a mouse so why not port a PC game to the Wii, one that hasnt been sent to console and is a little older so the graphics match up with Wii.

This got me to thinking and I play a lot of FPS gameson my PC and have for a long time, and I think a proper port of a PC game could be Just what the Wii needs to start the ball rolling. One game that I feel could make the transition to Wii very easily and be extremely accessible is No One Lives Forever 2. The game play is stealth and intense action would make it ideal. Also the graphics are still good and would fit perfectly for the Wii. The Coop Multiplayer and Deathmatch and Doomsday mode are perfect for small 16 player matches. NOLF2 is such a good game I play it single and multiplayer over many new games. It is a game like NOLF2 that would work well on the Wii. Also multiplayer is a must, I think once Nintendo has working Online Multiplayer developers will be more likely to make original FPS games for the system. Until then I think we are going to suffer with bad ports from other consoles.

I think No One Lives Forever 2 for the Wii would be a great game and save Wii from its boring FPS exsistance, and the Wii needs internet play before any FPS games will be truely successful.

GOW controls like an FPS but its from a 3rd person perspective, I dunno what to call it but to me it played more like an FPS, than a 3rd person adventure game.

Hm... you are not very informed. Red Steel recieved mixed reviews, but it was unanimous that if the game had more time it would have been much better. Also, Far Cry i think had decent controls (although that was the only thing good about it).

And your biggest misinformation is that Vanguard will suck. Multiple sources have stated that it's going to be better than CoD3 and said that it has better controls (and graphics).

I dont think the Wii will have any outstanding FPS (Metroid Prime aside), but there will be improvements. What do you expect when it's been only 3.5 months?

All hail halo, best fps ever, why can't all shooters be like it.

dude get over it and buy a 360 if you want crud like halo. btw its one game

The reason the FPS suck for wii right now is because they are making the cross hair move within the screen instead of staying in the center and having your area of vision move.....

Nintendo is still working on it, especially with Metroid Prime: Corruption.  I'm sure that Nintendo is learning from the mistakes of Red Steel and Far Cry (and other Wii FPSs I didn't mention).

I do believe that Nintendo is going the right direction trying to improve the overall experience of FPSs with the Wii controls.  Soon, it will be flawless, and 3rd parties will follow along.  If there is a Red Steel 2, it should be as perfect as our expectations for the first one.
