*Disclaimer- This post is long! I have some questions though for you Wii guys at the bottom that are important so skip down there if you dont feel like reading my life story :)
I have always been a big Nintendo fan. Until, the Wii. Why?? My biggest gripe was the graphics. Yes, I love awsome graphics. I was pissed off at Nintendo for not upping them and I was convinced the Wiimote was a gimmick. Also, I bought a 360 and felt like this was the only company delivering the goods to its customers (reasonable price, powerful system, and they have done a great job with Live and the Arcade). I was pissed off that I wouldn't get to see my favorite mascots in all new, shiny, bump mapped glory. I didn't consider the Wii next gen at all.
Why the change?? I'm realizing this controller has potential. It really sets this system apart from PS3 and Xbox and I commend Nintendo for taking this risk. I am still somewhat skeptical though, as I dont think the controller has revolutionized any games yet. I played Zelda and the controller didn't impress me. I played excite truck and thought the tilt was neat. I played the sports and this is whats finally gotten me excited. The responsiveness of this thing is incredible. I felt an incling of something new and exciting while playing the tennis. Unfortunately the game is very simple but I'm imagining how awsome a full fledged tennis game could be w/this controller if they devoted it to really emulating the game. It would take a lot of programming though but if they could nail the spins, angles, power of tennis (and I do think its possible) that would be one hell of an experience.
What I want to know though is this, for you Wiizer's out there. Has this controller truly added a new level of fun to your gaming? please be objective. has the change been drastic, minimal, or neutral ? What games do u think take the most advantage of the controller? Finally, do u foresee a major change in games due to the Wiimote or do you think we'll have to wait another generation before that happens?
Thanks for any input
