Which Wii FPS makes the best use of the controversial Wiimote + Nunchuk pointer controls?



Around the Network

For me by default it's Metroid Prime, because it's the only one on the list I've played and it was great.



 

What?! I can't hear you over all this awsome! - Pyrrhon (Kid Icarus:Uprising)

Final Ultimate Legendary Earth Power Super Max Justice Future Miracle Dream Beautiful Galaxy Big Bang Little Bang Sunrise Starlight Infinite Fabulous Totally Final Wonderful Arrow...FIRE! - Wonder-Red (The Wonderful101)

 

It's not even close: Corruption's the only one on the list that's actually a better game for having the Wii controls.

 

Metroid Prime 3, easily. It's a great game, and the way the control scheme was worked in was a big part of why.



Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 for me. Each year the controls got better for Call of Duty on the Wii and by MW3 they were amazing.
Then Black Ops II came to the Wii U and the pointer controls went completely downhill >:(

How so? I've played all the Wii + Wii U COD games, and while I agree the control got better with each one, I felt BO2 continued the trend, with the smoother framerate enabling more accuracy and fluidity. Granted the BO2 I played may have been patched so if it launched with crappy Wiimote controls I wouldn't know.

To be honest I haven't tried out the pointer controls since the patch but they were pretty bad. But still, the pointer controls aren't the best option anymore like they were on the Wii. I feel like if you put a "good" player using the Wiimote+Nunchuck against another "good" player using the CCP or even the gamepad, the latter would win most of the time. It's not as balanced out as it was in Black Ops/MW3.

I never tried it online, (I hate COD online) but I'd recommend giving it a go post-patch, I found the pointer controls superb when I played the campaign and zombies, very smooth and intuitive.



Metroid Prime 3 or BLOPS2 post patch (pre patch they were rubbish).



No love for Goldeneye?



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?
