I'm super new to gaming so I could be wrong. Maybe it has been remade, but if not, I remember playing Pilot Wings and loved it. I don't remember which platform I played it on (at friend's house) but I think it would adapt brilliantly to the Wii controllers. I remember a level that was like a bonus play where you went to a dreamy landscape island and flew around with wings like a big bird with no particular goal. Just flying around for the sheer thrill of the experience. Perfect concept for Wii.
I read an article on some gaming site (can't remember which) recently that said they're making a new Pilot Wings for the Wii. It's still in the "rumor" category, but they seemed pretty convinced and had some semi-proof.
I remember the cool little gyro-copter you flew around. It was sorta like the things I see flying around in the summer, north of my house. Like big go-karts with giant propeller/fans on the back and hanging from a parachute instead of using wings. Looks fun.
A Pilotwings Wii has been rumoured since the airplane game was removed from Wii Sports before its release. I'm not sure if its appearing in Wii Sports resort, but it does represent what Pilotwings would be like on the Wii. I would love to have 16-player online races through the sky in planes, or capture the bag with jetpacks and such. That's what the series needs. As for other games that could be remade, Road Rash would compliment the Wii remote perfectly. Titling the bike with the nun-chuck and whiping the chains with a flick of the wii remote. Simple and fun!
