It's the designer's choice. I think a lot of people rag on them when they have never played the Wii family games or any of the titles that I mentioned. Too many people bashed the controls and rode the bandwagon of trashing the Wii because it sold better than other systems or because there was a ton of shovelware/dumpware produced by non reputable companies trying to cash in. The Wii is the best game system for a variety of titles as long as you don't mind not having HD. I play classic Genesis and SNES games so I really just care about quality titles rather than the same thing everyone else is playing, just on my system. |
Red Steel 2, Resident Evil 4, Sin & Punishment 2, Wii Sports Resort, Medal of Honor Heroes 2, and lightgun games like Dead Space Extraction and House of the Dead also come to mind as games that really benefitted from the use of motion/pointer control. There's something really enjoyably hands-on about it; I'm the kind of guy who leans left and right in my seat when avoiding obstacles in a game anyway, so getting my body into it beyond just my fingers just feels good.
