So yeah obviously none of you have played it on the Wii, or else you'd see why all the reviews are comparing it to the first game. MUA2 is most definitely a step backwards in gameplay and graphics when compared to the first game. The Wii version was just an after thought that didn't have much time or care put into it at all.
The Wii version is terrible! I can't stress that enough. The graphics are worse than the first game, and I thought those were pretty decent. Almost no Anti-Aliasing at all in MUA2. The Menus are less fluid, hardly any animation. The control scheme has been made much more difficult for no apparant reason. Who decided you needed to turn the wiimote while pressing a button to turn the camera instead of just twisting the nunchuk? Most of the exclusive characters are left to the PS3 and Xbox360.
I don't mind only being able to use 4 skills at a time. I was actually surprised you had access to all a characters skills at a time in MUA1. Overall it seems like the Wii Version of MUA2 was just an after thought, and not much care was given to it.
