I believe that the new Nintendo Wii controller is absolutely amassing. When I first got hold of it I was in shock I actually got to touch one, then shortly after I finished dribbling I started playing my games.
At first the controls are hard to get used to, because… for example you have to swing the bat at the right time, aim the bow at the right spot etc... and the Wii mote sensitivity takes a while to get used to, so it order to apreashiate the true quality of each game you must give them at least 2 hours game play for the controls to start felling right then you will be totally immersed because once you get past the controllers you start to feel like this is actually right.
Like cars shaking the Wii mote to jump moving it at an angle to play the minigames, so many little things make it the perfect experience.
The sounds that come out of the controller they get me every time, when swinging a sword or fishing, or reloading your gun they are absolutely amazing, it brings so much more realism to the game it's unreal.
Although sometimes it goes come out a bit distorted but… if you press the home menu button while playing a game then press on the Wii-mote settings at the bottom and turn the volume down two places, sounds still come out loud enough and there’s no distortion.
Also I started playing Eragon with my younger brother on the X Box 360 and I run to the enemies and started shaking the controller, and I was sitting there shouting at the screen why aren’t you swinging, then I remembered for the X-box 360 you still have to just press buttons to do that stuff.
