I personally don't mind the lack of motion controls in the game. I don't love them in shooters, though obviously I'd have no problem with the option being there for those that want them.

I have to admit, I'm flabbergasted by the number of people who seem legitimately surprised and upset for the lack of them.

I honestly think that replicating the atmosphere and mechanics of Max Payne within the limitations of the GBA hardware was amazing work - on the level of the GBA port of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2.

@Mystemo I hate you and also I love you for this.

I bought my TV ages ago, and 720p is the best it can do. Guess the choice is already made, for me!

Well aware of all of its flaws and the controversy surrounding it at the time, I unashamedly loved Fear Effect back in the day. It was a blast to play, it told an interesting story, and I will admit that, being a teenage boy at the time, I enjoyed looking at the pretty anime ladies.

Surprised and delighted by this announcement.

Iria: Zeiram the Animation is the first anime I ever watched as a young lad. This, therefore, is relevant to my interests.

RE4 on Wii had Classic Controller support, right? If I recall right, that means this game could be played gamepad-only, with the gamepad's buttons, the way Pandora's Tower can. Sounds pretty appealing to me.

@edhe As far as everything I've read elsewhere would indicate, you absolutely do have to plug in both of those in for it to work properly.

The WiiU has four USB ports - 2 on the back, 2 in the front under the cover where the SD slot is.

Edit: And then Zipmon beat me to it

Wow, I didn't see this until today, so I didn't even think about it being an April Fool's thing. I'm sad now.

What's interesting to me is that everyone cites how bad recent Sonic games have been. I take it none of you have faith that the developers behind Mario Galaxy could take the character and make something good with him? It's not like Sonic Team would be developing these rumored Sonic sections, y'know.

And hey, maybe Mario will meet everyone from Brawl in their own galaxy. I look forward to playing as Solid Snake in Big Shell Galaxy

I remember wanting this since I first heard of it as an upcoming GBA game. I'm gonna have to download it tonight.

Played, beat, and loved everything about this game - except for the length. Hopefully we'll see more like it in the future.

Man, I've been waiting for this game ever since IGN wrote up a preview on the GBA game, ages ago. As for people upset about the 1000 points it'll cost you, I think a ten dollar pricetag for a game that we would've paid thirty bucks for on GBA or DS seems pretty sweet.

Good God. I remember seeing a video for this years ago on IGN... back when it was supposed to be a Gameboy Advance game. Looks as good now as it did then.

You know, if Silent Hill: Shattered Memories sells for crap on Wii, then I'll accept that there's no hardcore audience on Wii beyond our very vocal minority, because THAT is the kind of game we actually want.

And let's all keep in mind that games like Mad World and The Conduit were only published by SEGA. If developers like Platinum Games and (albeit to a lesser extent) High Voltage Software still want to make hardcore/mature games for Wii, I'm sure they'll be able to find someone out there to publish them. So long as they're half-decent, at any rate.
