Joystiq Impressions: Multiplatform games on Sixaxis

"I wonder if you could turn off the motion sensing in the wii games. I really believe wihtout a doubt that this whole thing is the biggest gimmick ever, and people will realize after a week of playing the wii, that they would rather not be swinging their arms around their living room rather then just chilling out and enjoying a game."

Ok.

From IGN

"So were the other 30 or so journalists who played alongside me. And when the gameplay session came to its too-early end, everybody in attendance agreed that the Wii remote and nunchuk combo performed beautifully. Nobody's arms were tired."

From GoNintendo

"You will absolutely not get tired while playing Twilight Princess on the Wii. Well actually, let me rephrase that. If you are going to go all out, standing up while playing, and swinging the hell out of the Wiimote, then yes…you may get tired. On the other hand, I didn’t sit there playing it with the most minor movements possible. I found a very happy medium on my own. I never held back from swinging too hard or too light. I just did what felt natural for what was going on in the game. Swinging the Wiimote and Nunchuck to perform Link’s attacks adds such a visceral experience to the game…it truly does further the entire Zelda experience."

From Gamespot

"As far as the exhaustion factor goes, if you grip the remote like a real sword and go about your business like you're actually performing the actions in real life, then yes, you're going to be winded and maybe a little sore. However, like any new system's controller, once you get the hang of it, figure out the nuances of how it handles, how the sensor bar reads your inputs and whatnot, it all seems very manageable."

From PlanetGamecube

"And before you ask: No, you don't get tired by swinging the remote around. It's just smooth and simple wrist movements."
