It'd have to do something special to sell well since you already get a bowling game in the box for free. And it seems like Wii Sports is a deeper game than some people (me at least) suspected.
From "Iwata Says":
In Wii Tennis, the developers note how impossibly difficult it is to "hit the same exact shot twice". The game measures your skill level numerically, and pits you against over sixty progressively more difficult opponents. The game also has a new "rocket serve" feature, whereby if a serve is hit at the very apex of the ball's toss, the first shot will get an intense burst of speed.
Though the controller cannot technically read one's full body motions, Wii Boxing was designed to move the player's body in-game when a player actually dodges, via the subtle hand movements during said dodge. In other words, the game will work best when the players actually dance around, dodging punches and counterattacking.
Wii Golf has taken nine of the best classic holes from the original NES Golf (on which Iwata himself programmed!), and remade them in full 3-D glory. Only eight people worldwide would have recognized this, but it's a nice little bonus.
Wii Bowling contains absolutely no arbitrary random variables, as many bowling games seem to. However, despite this, no one at Nintendo's internal testing team was able to score a perfect 300 game. To help you hone your ball rolling skills, the game offers three training-type minigames to pass the time. Also, in a nice touch of realism, you can actually roll the ball away from the lane or even into adjacent lanes around you.
There's probably gonna be a lot more FPS games out for the Wii, and definatly many more sports games.
Isn't that what there'll be the most of on the other two consoles too? I wonder what the Wii's flight game will be. Pilotwings? Star Fox maybe?
Maybe Ace Combat? Just wishful thinking since I know it will be on the PS3, though they did make a couple for the GBA. Of course it's not really a flight simulator, lot closer than After Burner, but still nothing near like flying in a real jet. Still would be cool to see one on the Wii.
And one from Nintendo next year sometime Wii Motor Sports Airplane. Apparently this will be like Pilot Wings according to IGN, and might be part of the sports pack.
So are they doing these types of videos as commercials in the US? I haven't seen any Wii commercials yet. All I've seen was a PS3 commercial involving a baby dall. That made me go '...WTF'?
"What if like...there was an exact copy of you somewhere, except they're the opposite gender, like you guys could literally have a freaky friday moment and nothing would change. Imagine the best friendship that could be found there."
Nah, you're more likely to accidentally let go of the controller when playing baseball.
