I've played very little of Super Mario Galaxy, mainly because I did not like the way the camera was at most of the time. As for Twilight Princess, I love that game. Oh and Resident Evil 4. That was spectacular on the Wii.

Yeah. Camera angles were pretty bad in Super Mario Galaxy sometimes. I'm not sure, but I think they fixed it a bit for SMG II.

I haven't played SMGII

I am not a big fan of Mario games. The only ones I like are SM64 and SM Sunshine. And of course, the classic Super Mario Bros. 1-3. And I'm neutral on the RPG ones. Any other Mario game as of right now, I do not like that much.

I've only played SMGII
I've played as Mario and completed the entire first world in SMGII and I haven't had any trouble with the camera.
I didn't like the fact that you had to aim with the wiimote when you're riding Yoshi, I feels weird to aim with your left hand while walking with your right. (I'm left handed mind you.)

Generation III was such a cool generation, it really felt "new". Still I think that all pokemon games have a bad storyline, even gen V, though there were some epic moments there. It's such a shame that they just can't seem to give series a more serieus story.
That's why Pokemon isn't my absolute favorite.

Oh and about Heartgold: Looking back, I've got kinda mixed feelings about this one, it was cool, but the trainers and pokemon were extremely underleveled, to the point it isn't even fun anymore.
Yeah, the motion controls of Wii are often a point of contention regarding many games. >_> I believe they are a strong suit of the Nintendo Wii, though only with first-person games and third person behind-the-back games.

I once had an opportunity to play New Super Mario Brothers Wii at a library event and Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games for the Nintendo Wii.
For NSMBWii, it seemed like I'd be better off using a regular analog Nintendo GameCube controller: the only 'motion controls' involved some shaking, and the onscreen action seemed like it would fit a traditional controller better. And I dislike having to hold the Wii Remote horizontally... :\
For M&[email protected], I did a track event, IIRC. I'm glad it had motion, but it sort of felt...forced/unresponsive, in a way. Like a tacked-on gimmick. The Wii Nunchuk is also a bit unresponsive in Wii Sports' Boxing (to the point where controller responsiveness FREQUENTLY decides matches :cer_pissed:), though the sensor seems to work fine whenever I perform Spin Attacks in Twilight Princess.

I also managed to play Mario Kart Wii at some point...the Wii Wheel seems more realistic, but it was a bit disorienting at first, and yet again the GCN Controller seemed like a better fit for the game.

As for Brawl...whoever plays with motion controls in that, more power to them, and good job, at that. >_> Thank goodness that Brawl retained GCN Controller support, as I really got accustomed to playing Smash Bros. in analog form with Melee. I even bought a Platinum GCN Controller specifically for playing Brawl, as I couldn't imagine how I'd play it any other way.

Aside from Wii Sports, the Wii Remote really seem to shine in Twilight Princess, though it seems that quite a few people had an issue with even that. Swordplay and fishing feels engaging, though first-person targeting can slightly go haywire at times. The Nunchuck uses are also great, noted with Shield Bashing and Spin Attacking. The GCN does boast the advantage of "infinite" Spin Attacks with no need for "cooldown time" (which I feel cheapens the gameplay), not to mention Dual Sub-weapon Wielding, which permits Link to combo into item attacks.

I hope first-person/third-person behind-the-back games for Project Cafe can use the Wii Remote somehow...I'd hate to go back to an analog setup. :x

As for Pokemon, the storylines could use some work, but from what I'm hearing, BW's story is a step in the right direction... :<

Hmm...underleveled Pokemon suck, but there's always the Battle Frontier... :< Honestly, I sometimes wish that you could set up rematches, with the foe's Pokemon progressing up until the point where all of their Pokemon would end up being Level 100 or something. Underleveled foes are also a problem in the Elite 4, as that's where, IMO, most training is done. FireRed/LeafGreen actually did it right with their "Kanto Elite 4 Second Wave" after the Sevii sidequest, so the extra EXP from there is much appreciated.
Leveling against RSE's Elite 4 is a chore, though, as the EXP awarded frequently seems to amount to peanuts and only lets your Pokemon get 1-2 Levels after an entire E4 run - I mean, would it hurt to allow rematch teams to consist of Pokemon between Levels 60-80 or something? I could make several Secret Bases that provide way more EXP than the Hoenn Elite 4 ever does that yield like 2-3 levels or something per battle.

I know, right? I remember reading an article in Electronic Gaming Monthly that the gametime was ~70 hours... Fast-forward to present day, and I have 100+ hours logged in the game, and I still haven't finished it, last leaving off in the City In The Sky. Sometimes I feel like I'm slow or something... T_T I assume that the upcoming Skyward Sword will likely be as long, which is definitely not a bad thing.

Brawl's SSE spans quite a few hours, not to mention all the time that one must spend unlocking everything. >_> At first I was averse to making a CD Factory, but I decided to just make one anyway because waiting for random CD spawns would take much longer than I'd like, and I could invest that time in playing Free-For-Alls and stuff.

203849. Oh, right, that tornado that tore through Tuscaloosa. And the Missouri levees flooding.

This Spring's been nasty. :(

The destruction this month was particularly bad, actually. Though it seems, as the new events unfold Australia was completely forgotten. That's a shame, but I do still feel sorry for those affected by the tornado and earthquake. Nothing we can do though, unfortunately.

203854. I have Wednesday off, too. I'll probably take my final for my Client/Server Computing course then, after studying.

We could stop destroying the planet so mother nature could stop being angry at us, but what are the chances of that happening. unlikely. before anyone answers before me even though it's a rhetorical question.
