Cube Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 The sword fighting looks OK, but the video was too jerky at the time to tell if the 1:1 works well with it. I just have one question... ...where are the sports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePigMarcher Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 but the video was too jerky at the time to tell if the 1:1 works well with it. I didn't think it looked too responsive , although it may easily have been down to the feed. Even so , really can't see me being in a rush to pick this up although I will see what other *cough*sports*cough* are included with this package.

gaggle64 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Looks OK. I'd think we'd prefer fullly fledged versions of some the activities promised here. Where's Wave Race for example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Din Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I could really care less. Doesn't excite me in the slightest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aimless Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Sword Fighting is the the new Boxing as far as I'm concerned. Should be excellent. Obviously we don't know everything that will be included yet, but it looks like a decent enough package. Then again, I like Wii Play so I guess you can ignore my opinion.

ShadowV7 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Sword fighting is the only game that interests me so far. Don't care for the dog one much... I'll get bored by it in 5 min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubahood Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I thought the wii remote was already meant to do these things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_prOdigy Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 What the hell is that last picture? Does anybody know where I can watch/download just the Wii Sports part of the Nintendo conference? That;s the single-player sword-fighting game. It involved sharpening/chopping up a pencil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James McGeachie Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I could really care less. Doesn't excite me in the slightest. Yeah 1:1 on Wii, who wants that? Who wants the entire reason there was to be interested in the console on the first place! Man fuck Nintendo just gimme another archaic Zelda game where I waggle to replicate a button press, none of this improved motion control!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James McGeachie Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Well what I mean is, right here we have an example of a game on Wii finally doing what it was meant to do from day 1. 1:1 style motion control. Despite that, people would've been happier if they showed a Zelda game that just had TP waggle and nothing else. They showed off progression on Wii in terms of control. They told us the Mario and Zelda teams are working on new projects. That should be enough for people to put 2 and 2 together and realise, oh, we finally have something that makes the Wii standout from a waggle fest and Nintendo are developing hardcore games that will evolve from this. Obviously they were going to show off the casual ones, it's what they do nowadays and they demonstrated the 1:1 working. That should be enough to excite people or SATISFY them but everyone just wants to roll around and bawl like a baby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasper Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Well what I mean is, right here we have an example of a game on Wii finally doing what it was meant to do from day 1. 1:1 style motion control. Nintendo never stated that the Wii Remote would have an accurate 1:1 control, they stated it was about movement and they also said their games were about the motion, not the precision of it (have a gander at Wii Sports) Despite that, people would've been happier if they showed a Zelda game that just had TP waggle and nothing else. By people you mean Nintendo fanboys? I don't think that three quarters of Nintendo's demographic wants Zelda, but only that handfull of gamers. Zelda or Mario are not as important. They're not the message they want to bring, and they would disrupt the flow of Nintendo's casual press-conference. Be sure that an expo like E For All could reveal Zelda - but Zelda is no more a huge announcement like it once was, because right now, very few Wii owners care. They showed off progression on Wii in terms of control. They told us the Mario and Zelda teams are working on new projects. That should be enough for people to put 2 and 2 together and realise, oh, we finally have something that makes the Wii standout from a waggle fest and Nintendo are developing hardcore games that will evolve from this. They told you the Mario and Zelda teams are working on projects, and later they mentioned the 1:1. Nintendo didn't intend for you to 'bring it together' - although, off course, Nintendo's own products will certainly support it. Nintendo meant for people like you to stop asking about Zelda and Mario, because they're working on it and it distracts the attention of the casual gamer into the confusing lands of hardcore gaming. Obviously they were going to show off the casual ones, it's what they do nowadays and they demonstrated the 1:1 working. That should be enough to excite people or SATISFY them but everyone just wants to roll around and bawl like a baby. Now they truly market it as 1:1, so it should be working. This last line, though, is entirely true. To The Point: Wii Sports Resort looks nice. It's Wii Sports with more enviroments that do not resemble the early incarnation of blue and green, but that seem happy, casual, and perfectly aligned with Nintendo's intentions to introduce peripherals with games that use them. I'de love to know how this one turns out, and maybe - if we're lucky - Nintendo might give us WiFi Connection on this one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serebii Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 It should be noted that the technology for this 1:1 was not commercially viable for 2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Wii Sports Resort looks nice, I don't care much for frisbee game but the other two looked great. I wonder what else we can expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konfucius Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Swordfighting should be awesome, really looking forward to it. I wonder if it will also improve the accuracy in existing games. That would be really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
