Wii Breaks Sales Records While Third Parties Flee System

Never even heard of Excitebots.

Part of the problem. Nintendo's latest idea is to market a game two months (at most) before a game hits and hit what they believe is marketable crowds, Excitebots was advertised in kid's magazines. The game was hard as shit and it has a poker race mode, then the boxart made the game look like a robot animal farm. In the end, a brilliant game gets discarded.

It doesn't help that the Wii remote makes for a horrible Zapper.

Try playing a game that allows for calibration. Once the wiimote is calibrated to the screen dimensions it can fire blindly and you can use the actual plastic as the sights. This is done in several games and there's an outcry for a standard wiimote calibration menu in the Wii's operating system that would coincide with each game.

Light is what eyes see, and light is made up of photons, not electrons.
