If you really want this game why not play it on a PSP, I mean if that's where it's going thats where it will probably stay. |
I'd rather play it on the Wii on a bigger screen TV. I don't play games on the go because I really don't get a chance to sit down for 1-2 hours to play on a handheld game system when I'm out of the house. I hate the analog nub on the PSP as well, and the PSP has no rumble (which I find to be a nice addition to the MGS games).
The Wii could also have much better graphics, look at the Monster Hunter games on the PSP versus Monster Hunter 3 on the Wii ... huge difference. Konami even has the MGS3 engine which could be enhanced for the Wii ... this wouldn't even take a huge amount of effort and they'd open up the game to another 50 million userbase.
The "built for Wii or bust" thing is B.S. anyway ... Resident Evil 4 isn't "built for Wii", yet it's one of the best games on the platform. Whereas the light gun shooter Resident Evil games are built for Wii ... and they're not as good as RE4.
Just because a game is tailor made for the Wii doesn't automatically make it better or even good to begin with. Some of the best games on the Wii (Mario Galaxy and Punch-Out!!) make nominal use of the motion sensing/waggle, I would not die if MGS: PW was on Wii and the Wiimote control was used selectively. I don't need to get up off the couch and do a dance like I'm playing DDR for every game.

The only Wii game I have ever had to stand up to play was WarioWare Smooth Moves, for a minigame that required dancing........
The idea that people look ridiculous playing the Wii is inaccurate. I either play it sitting down or laying down. The motions aren't large enough to need too much space.

The opposite is true too. Not every Wii game needs to reinvent the wheel to be good, in fact probably the three highest quality games on the Wii (Mario Galaxy, RE4, and Punch-Out!!) are all pretty traditional, one of them is even just a GC port.
If MGS: Peace Walker is a good game ... why not have it on the Wii. It would benefit in many ways over the PSP. Better analog, better graphics, ability to play on a bigger screen, rumble, and the potential for some Wiimote additions like some pointer aiming perhaps.
It's also a low risk way for Konami to at least see if there is some interest for the franchise on the Wii, and it would be much better than porting an old game. MGS: Peace Walker is a new game, with a new story, a player on Wii shouldn't feel any more slighted playing this game than a 360 owner should feel upset that somewhere a PS3 owner is enjoying BioShock 2 or Assassin's Creed 2 just as much as they are.
Who cares really.
