Personally, I like them as long as they’re done right and not total shit. I also expect most of the features to still be intact from the other versions of the game (depending if the Wii can handle it or not).

Ok, I didn't know that Star Wars: The Force Unleashed was also coming out for Nintendo Wii.
Its more if a fighting game then a adventure game. Its pretty good

I didn't know it was on the Wii until they'd put out the Switch version. I think the Switch version of Force Unleashed is a port of the Wii version
 
I personally liked The Godfather on Wii, the dock level where I believe you needed to rescue Michael? Correct me if I'm wrong as it has been a hot minute since I played the game. But anyhow, it was my favorite part as it was not only a stealth mission, but you needed to use the motion controls for the Wii Remote and Num-chuks to use the Garrote Wire on the enemies.
 
I don't know if I have an opinion to say but I find it interesting how they use the Wii controls today.With motion sensor thing to implement shooting games like that use the sensor as a weapon
 
I like the idea of some Wii versions. Like being able to control your entrance movements in WWE games, or like how Resident Evil 4 is apparently really good on Wii. I just never bought a Wii, and only ever played ports of Wii games on other consoles.
 
More often than not this entails forcing motion controls in games not designed with them in mind and results are less than stellar.
this, Wii versions almost always must include a motion controls, even in games were it's cumbersome
 
I feel that some games are designed to be played a certain way. Resident Evil 4 and Twilight Princess were both designed for the Gamecube. I think the Wii version of RE 4 makes it easier than it was intended to be by allowing for more precise aiming than the game was meant to have. So I don't view it as the ideal way to play the game.

It's fine if you've played it on the GC or PS2 and want to play the game again in a new way, but it's not the "right" way to play it for the first time.

Twilight Princess reverses the whole world on the Wii which is...weird. It also changes Link from a leftie to a rightie I think which is just wrong.

House of The Dead 2 and 3 is a really great port. Works great with the Wiimote! It was on the Wii before it came to XBOX and Playstation consoles too!
 
I must admit that you have a pretty solid and varied Wii Games Collection.

And many of them are the best Wii games like Resident Evil 4 and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for example.

I also agree my friend, these two games use motion control very well, there are even others that are from armory games.I love retro games, I'm what, but seriously, the old games had so much charm,

Thanks, I also have way more Wii games than what is pictured there.
