The only decent controls for FPS on consoles comes from the wiimote, preferably mounted on a handgun. However, while that is acceptable for aiming, your shortcuts are still pretty much fucked.

No. The Wii is horrible for FPS games.

In theory, it should work just like a mouse and keyboard.

In reality, you gotta slide your aim to the sides of the screen to adjust left/right/up/down. Which ruins it's potential.

No, it actually DOES work really well. Games on the PC are just as guilty for the giant crosshairs nowadays, but I'll give you aim assist (that I constantly complain about in MW2 and cuss out the ****s that made the game for not giving us an option to remove it).

Eh? The huge crosshairs in PC games is due to cross-platform development and devs being too lazy/jewish to provide PC players with an experience catered to their hardware PC gaming is dead.

but i agree that the wiimote is horrible for FPS games, actually all games really. so floaty and imprecise.

If I want to play a console game, I buy it for pc. But why would I want to buy console games? For the most part, they suck. Not to mention the costs of buying a limited capability console every 5 years. Limited in comparison to what a pc computer can do. If you need to upgrade, it's much cheaper and easier than having to buy another expensive console. If you don't like a mouse and keyboard, then use a gamepad designed for pc computers.

That's why I mod every console I own...if it can't be modified to play backups, then I won't buy it. Exception is my PS3 which is my HD media player which works amazingly well with ps3 media server and Linux machine

Wiimote is kickass for stuff like Zelda and Mario. Seriosuly, playing a Zelda game without one now would be like going outside without pants.

It's not great for FPS though I think that could be fixed up with a more precise pointer.

You failed to mention Metroid. IMO it works really good with the Trilogy
