i dont get how becuase its easy to control its for kids. do you guys prefer things that are hard to control?

Controls are so simplistic? You ever try playing DBZ BT2?

For Zelda, I rather like the new idea of swinging the controller. (granted, not in someones face

)

Truely, whats keeping the PS3 controls so difficult to use?

any gamer who plays the wii (zelda, spm, the godfather) and says they hate it is just too stuck up to see that ITS FUN.

Take a game like Gran Turismo. On the PS3, a non gamer would have a hard time getting use to the controls. Whereas the Wii, you could hold the controller like a steering wheel to move the vehicle.

Yeah olny a kid would find that fun.

i would rather lye down on my bed, hold a pad and play a game.

Not having to be standing up swinging my arms about (zelda is one of the few games you dont have to do that, zelda is a very layed back game)

thats bad?

i, for one, prefer controls that mimic the real thing. call me weird...

Really?...Most of my more [boring] friends like racing games because of the lack of aiming and how easy it is to 'go'. They dont like FPS because they, well frankly, can't AIM!

They just aren't very good with controls. They play a video game say oh once every few days.

I find the Wii fun. Pretty sure Im not a kid. Or was that a FANBOY opinion, as I shall call them from now on?

Really, Im not too lazy as to stand up. However, sadly sometimes I act too lazy

Even when I'm sitting, I dont even notice it yet Im still playing the Wii game as though Im standing.

It's not very challenging = not very fun.

Thats not a fanboy opinion, however that IS an opinion.

the wii controls (when implemented properly) make the games more accessible WITHOUT taking away from the gameplay.

i handed my dad a wii-mote and we started playing red steel and guess what? he wasnt that bad! it was his FIRST FPS as well! i consider that a good thing.

true but i dont think that simple means easy. just because theres no learning curve doesnt mean its hard.
