The problem is neither of the following things, nor the combination of them

That you are left handed
That Metroid Prime is better for right handed people

The problem is that you are a left handed person who has always been forced to play using the same controller as right handed people, such that now when you are given a controller that works just as well for left handed people as right, you are unable to use it properly.

Fortunately, this problem (like all others) can be solved by a few days gaming. Simply beat MP3 with the wiimote in your left hand and by the end you will be able to do it easily

Well said, I pretty much agree with this completely.

And OP, do you generally hold the Wiimote in the left hand? Start out with a RTS, like Pikmin or LKS (or really any slow-movement game), and you'll get used to it. I damaged my right elbow pretty heavily a few months ago, so I turned over to using my left arm for the mouse (which made TF2 near impossible), and changing the Wiimote to the left (playing like a leftie).

I was surprised of how quickly it became natural with the Wiimote (the mouse took far, far longer time).

Honestly; both should be easy to learn. You have to choose, which would take less work to learn? Aiming with the "wrong" hand, or moving with the "wrong" hand? For learning the movement, go play an RTS or a different slow motion game. For learning the aiming, go play Wii play.



When I write Fact: in one part of the post, and opinion: (or a similar word), it's not because I can then say "my opinion can't be wrong". It is to inform what part is pure facts, and which part I try to draw a conclusion in.
