No i've seen a lot of truely ignorant views. People telling me there was no advantage over the traditional gamepad. I forced someone like that to play Pikmin 3 with a gamepad and then wii remote and nun-chuck and he had to admit the wii remote and nun-chuck was better and more accurate. In the short term it was good that the casuals took it over but since Apple took over the casuals there was no long term benefit to Nintendo. And the negatives were that many people didn't even try great games that worked well with the controller and that never had the chance to evolve as a result. But at least I'll be able to play games like this in VR where Nintendo's ideas are living on. |
Pikmin is kind of like a strategy game so of course wii mote would work better, but there are some genres where that isnt the case, fighting games for one.
@Bolded IMHO anyone with common sense knew that that was what was gonna happen, that audience is fickle at best, there was no strong foundation there. as for not people trying it for games that it worked well on, IMO thats the issue right there, its a standard controller for the system which means its supposed to work well PERIOD, and that was far from the case. Ninty never really seem to care to evolve it themselves, sure we got motion+ years later but even then they barely supported that and it was still not up to par with the capabilites of the Move, but thats just what i think having used both. I think Sony will beat them to the VR punch before Ninty does and as a result i think Ninty wont even try.
