Not much of a soccer games player but I'm actually considering it with the remote based controls looking so neat.

Apparently Konami have recently admitted removing alternate controls schemes from the first game on Wii, in order to force people to get to grips with the new Wii Remote and Nunchuk controls.

The common opinion on the first was that it was a good game, but took some solid time getting used to because of the radically new controls. It put even seasoned players like myself off after having played it. That first game also tied shooting to a gesture, which was plain wrong, not just by my estimation but many others also. One other aspect that many fans disliked including me was the defensive controls, which were really tough to deal with and lacked any flexibility.

 All these issues are said to be cleared up within this game. Konami have listened to fans both in Europe and in Japan. This could be a very good game, the first was more of a experiment in my opinion, a necessary one.

lol anyway im currently waiting for PES2010 on a real console, hopefully its good or i quit PES and move back to Fifa.

Olol, I get it, teh Wii is not a real console!!!!11 so funneh, how did you come up with such funnyness, you must be a genious kid!!!!1?? Too bad PES has been getting stale and/or worse on other systems while truly innovating and excelling on the FAEK CONSOEL eh (even with the issues Linky mentions)?

I absolutely loved the last one, can't wait to get my hands on this one since Fifa, while good, was still just a shadow of its 360 counterpart.

It looks great

Olol I'm gonna pretend u said shaking to shoot = innovation and make other shit up about games I never played :O

"Olol yea shaking is all that you did in teh gaem last year so u will jus do teh shaking here again and oh yea i never played teh wii pes but i'll say it suqed as much as on the other systems lolz kthxbai."

"...Um...yeah. I'm not bashing the Wii or anything. I own all 3 consoles. So, chill out there for a second.But all I'm saying is calling the Wii version of PES innovative doesn't make any sense. That's like calling the Wii version of Madden innovative. "

Did you play last year's game? "

If with Madden you're reffering to "call your shots" mode in the last Madden then yes, that's pretty innovative also taken separatelly, though it's very similar to what PES added to the table over other versions of the game and in fact other franchises on other systems. Additions like this change the gameplay rather than simply change the way you play the same game as the other systems, and they're far more than what you first implied when you acted as if waggle replacing button presses is all these games do to freshen up the experience on the Wii. It's not.

PS: I love people going all "dude I own a Wii" :)

"I realize that the Wii version of Pro Evo 08 was a lot better than the PS3 and 360 versions but there was nothing innovative about it is what I'm trying to say. Sure, the new control scheme was great but calling it innovative just seems a little silly to me."

As someone who has been playing football games since the SNES i can say that PES 08 on Wii was innovative and more realistic than most football games out there, in fact it was so good than even Fifa tried a similar one this year, I call that innovative.  "
