News flash: Wii motion-controls doable without sweating

Oct 17th 2006 11:46AM (Joystiq)
I think that anyone concerned about getting tired while playing the Wii are forgetting a few things.

1.) if I remember correctly most companies recommend that you take a break every two or three hours. If you can't last longer then a thirty minutes or so, then just keep practicing, and you will be able to play for longer period of time with out getting tired.

2.)There is this handy feature that pretty much all games have called pause. if you are getting tired, hit start, get something to eat, go to the bathroom, write a novel, watch some T.V., ect. Once your arm isn't tired anymore, go back to playing.

3.) For some games, like Red Steel or Metroid Prime 3, if you play with your arm staight out pointing at the screan then your shoulder will probobly get tired. Especially if you are like me and have shoulder problems to begin with. Again, you can hit pause, or if you arn't using any of the attachments you can use your other hand to help support the one with the controller, just like you would with a gun (it would also help with aim, which would be a good thing)

In the end, none of this really matters. The fan boys will buy their prefered system at launch, and like it regardless of any problems with the system and controller. For people who can't make up their minds or for people who don't have an opinion, they will be waiting for reviews to come out.

At the moment, arguing over which system is better is pointless. Once we accually have the systems, then we will have first hand experiences and we can definitivly say which (in our opinion) is the better system.
