Literally just a couple of minutes ago TGC posted the news on the Wii MotionPlus. But now TGC question's, what games will Nintendo announce to go with it?
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
Dash Rendar, Prince Xizor, the Battle of Hoth, and one of the boldest Star Wars multimedia projects ever made. Here’s why Shadows of the Empire still matters.
This game along with Rogue Squadron got me into to Star Wars. The release of special edition VHS Star Wars collection was perfectly times on top of all that. 😆
But it wasn't. Although I do agree that some of the tie-in media, like the novels and comics, were pretty good.
Still, games like Dark Forces, Jedi Knight, Rogue Squadron, and the space sims were peak 90s Star Wars. Shadows fell flat because of the abysmal controls and unimaginative levels. And if you wanted to really experience the seedy side of the universe, Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 was peak, and it wasn't even close.
Regardless, and much to my dismay, we got the better version thanks to Ubislop in Outlaws, which is what Shadows should've been, albeit at a smaller scale.
As a kid me and my cousins loved this game . I have great memories with this one and the Star Wars pod racer game .
Debuting in Season 9, all players can try a beta of The Crew Motorfest’s new ambitious track creator, TrackForge.
but if the Wii-mote has now added the same accelerometers (which is what the Sixaxis uses) how did Sony steal Nintendos tech?! interesting that, isn't it.
Finally the Wiimote will be as capable as the Sixaxis is...
(and I am not flaming - this is fact)
currently the Sixaxis can detect motion on all six axis and to a resolution of .25mm vs. the lesser directional detection of the wiimote with a motion resolution of around 2cm
Man that extra ugly ass block is going to probably bust clean thru a wall now when thrown. That should make a good news story. Maybe Nintendo toys are no longer toys but deadly blunt objects able to be used as weapons for destruction on small children or household pets.
I think someone needs to step in here and take a deep look into Nintendo's practice.
JoelR..........get your head out of sonys butt.
I think its funny how you keep bringing up the sixaxis like it can even compete with the wii remotes all around motion controls.You only gloat about what the sixaxis can do.
Yea maybe sixaxis can tilt more accurately,but what else can it do?Have fun trying to play a boxing game with it.
I don't know why you guys are even bothering. This place homes every Sony fanboy on the internet. I'm proud of you putting up the good fight, though.
