[Wii] Disappointed with the controller

What I never really got, was how the first wave of Wii titles looked actually worse than Gamecube titles. That, AND the control scheme was mostly tacked on nonsense. I mean, the Wii is practically the same hardware as the cube, so the difference in making games for it can't be THAT big.
I gave both Far Cry: Vengeance and Red Steel a try. While Red Steel has some better visuals, AI and implementation of the controls weren't as hot as you'd expect them from such a prestigious title. Far Cry is beyond anything, horrible looks and worse AI, but they did get the controls somewhat right. Still, both are games I really wouldn't have touched with a pointy stick weren't it for the novelty of the controls and, well, them being the only slightly interesting games in the drought of the first few Wii months.
And today? Situation hasn't changed much it seems.
It IS too early to throw the towel, but yet there still are too few devs who really try doing great things with the Wii that aren't just shovelware. Too bad SSBB comes out here god-knows-when, cause I guess my Wii will collect dust till then.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Twighlight Princess did look great - Though the only place where it really benefited from the Wii controls though was shooting. Swordswinging was just a bit too unprecise. Still, the game posessed enough other - or rather burst with - redeeming qualities, so it didn't matter much.

I admit though, I intentionally mixed "prestigious" and "overhyped".
Still I find with the cases of Red Steel and FC:V it was really justified that Ubisoft apologized for having actually produced such poorly finished games for the Wii. Even if they made one of
Yes, they both were first generation software, but so were other games which clearly didn't look or control as bad.
Okay, with Cruisn' the mark has been lowered for how bad a Wii title can actually look - without even having the benefit of a doubt that a launch title would have had.
