Well first I would like to say that it is an intressting topic but you did one mistake in chosing a review of many for a game that overall has got very good reviews.
@Thread
Back to the topic for what we really is asking here: can Wiimote + nunchuck be used with traditional games?
Well, according to me yes as long as the developerer doesn't fit every ****ing move/thing on motion sensors. Now to explain this I think there is several genrés that could be very good with the Wiimote:
FPS: I think this is a no brainer if you are as bad as me in playing FPS with a standard controller.
RPG: Could again be simpler with a pointer going through menus and so on.
Plattform: Here I will wait untill I see what Dews and Mario succed with.
TBS or RTS: Should be perfect but you do miss the keyboard.
Point and click adventure, well if I don't get a mouse I rather take a Wiimote than a classic controller.
Run and Gun: NO I rather play that with the classic controller.
Overall I think the Wiimote can take the mass of the games, and I hope bring in other fun games to the plattform.
Buy it and pray to the gods of Sigs: Naznatips!
