Why would they port a game from the Gamecube game to the Wii, when it's fully b/c?

I guess the question is, would Wii owners pay money just for motion controls with Prime 1 and 2.

I just don't see the reason in it.

It's not so much the motion, it's the IR. I'd probably buy it (never played either of them).

 Well, it has 3 games in it, one of which is current-gen, so I don't see why not. Furthermore, not all Wii owners were, or are, gamecube owners... me, for example.

I loved Prime 1&2, those games with Wii controls would be awesome!

New controls, count me in... but so far is only a rumor...

This is part of the problem.

Wii owners are far too happy to accept remakes of games and will buy them in droves, so developers don't have to try hard to get a game to sell.

People have just stated that they'd buy the game, just for the IR controls. So the developer can slap on some new controls, and it'll be a guaranteed seller. Why try hard to innovate, or change, when people will buy it either way? So the same people crying about Rock Band being a PS2 port only have themselves to blame, by buying games, simply because they're on the Wii, because it'd 'control better' (not in the case of RockBand, but you know what I mean).

So Golden Eye in HD, or Street Fighter HD are bad ideas and will sell badly? If some one made God Of War 1 and 2 in 1080P and resold it, you and other PS3 fans wouldn't be even the slightest bit interested?

GoldenEye is a ten(?) year old game, as is Street Fighter, which is why they'll be sold on XBL or PSN, or WW at a price of ten bucks.

And your GoW 1 + 2 thing is pure speculation, not proven by any fact.

The fact remains, slap HD on it and suddenly something old becomes appealing. And yes, obviously I'm speculating on GoWHD, I outright made up it's existence. And I didn't even make an assertion, I asked a question. Now the assertion, you can bet it would generate a certain degree of interest, if you could buy both in HD in one package for 50 bucks (budget price for an HD game). You don't think that would sell any copies, get any praise?.

Something old made new renews interest, that is fact. Buying multiple games for the price of one renews interest. Slap new controls on an old game=new interest. Slap HD on an old game=new interest.
