Dev sees a lot more potential in Wiimote
During an interview with Ignition Entertainment, GameIndustry.biz got the developer to speak their mind on the Wiimote. Their thoughts? The Wiimote is capable of much more. Not only more complex gesture-based movements, but more fun as well. Ignition's studio manager goes on to say that he thinks "the controller is capable of translating actions far more complex and energetic than most players are interested in performing even in the privacy of their own homes."
Bradley, however, doesn't believe that developers should be looking to complicate things just yet, asking us if "at the end of the day developers want players to have fun rather than impose clever mathematics on them, so if it turns out to be fun only using a simple subset of the controller's gizmos then why worry about how "proper" it is?" We'd be hard-pressed to argue, as some of the most simple games have been the most excellent experiences of our lives. Also, given the new nature of the console and its control scheme, shouldn't developers wait until the mainstream gamer is more used to controlling games with the Wiimote before complicating the controls?
