We have Madden 08 and NBA 08 coming down the pipe! What else would u like to see on the Wii.
NHL- Hockey. Hold the Wii remote pointing it at the ground. Position the numchuck above it and there you go. A hockey stick. You can also control goalie (blocker and traper)
FIFA- Football or Soccer. Not as easy to figure out. Unless you do a kicking motion with ur hands. Well the throw ins will work great!
Rugby. Could work well when in a scrum. Throw ur arms left and right to pass left and right.
MLB- Baseball. Well you've seen it in Wii sports but not in a full game.
Other- Tons of sports that I don't no much about. Don't mention NBA or NFL cause those are alreadt being made. I want to see how NBA turns out though!

Well The Bigs was suppose to be out this summer, although I havent heard anything about it since it was first announced months ago. It was suppose to be the first full baseball game on the Wii.

     Its a no brainer at this point and time.  Super Mario Strikers will FLOOR everything EA has produced for the Wii (Godfather excluded).  This game is getting rave insights as being the one Nintendo game that isn't behind prison for not-being-perfect-enough yet, and for very good reason.  Online, secrets, cheats, team play, legitimate usage of Friend Codes, a viable points system, and even an awesome single-player component all in one Wii disc.  I think it would be an understatement to say that the usability of Strikers will surpass even Mario Kart DS, which is like right behind Halo 2 for most people online for a console game.

Here's to wishing it would come to the states!

Why do you say that?

You really shouldn't say something like that without backing it up...

Because if I wanted to play a game of football, I would go outside.

EA playground :P err not really seeing as I know nothing much about it but I would guess the Mario strikers or whatever its called now is going to be pretty good.  Im still a bit miffed that we didn't get a snooker game to tie in with the championship, surely a half arsed ps2 game with tacked on controls was managable :roll: actually maybe it was for the best....

Dont think baseball will be one, unless EA or someone else does what @K Sports is doing to Football with the All-Pro 2K8 game and using past legends.

MLB license was sold to Sega,Microsoft or someone else, so only one baseball game with the real names and stadiums can be used.

You wasted a perfectly good poll choice on Rugby?  I've never heard of a video game based on Cricket or Rugby.  I'm not saying they don't exist, but it's definitely a small niche.

Football isn't soccer. This is America. Skullheart

America? This is SPARTA!

No wait, I mean this is The Rest Of The World .

What with American being the only country in the world to call Football Soccer...

Mario Strikers will be the next great sports game. Why? It's actually a game. The rest are simulators. And Simulators suck.

This same logic is why Burnout > any F1 game.

So from the poll it looks like we need a MLB game and then NHL game. Those two really would work great with the remote.

I really want a cricket game. It could be fantastic if the developers take time with it and get a great control scheme.

aransom

The whole of Europe plays Rugby, and all of Asia, Australia, Africa, and Europe plays cricket. Just because Americans don't play those games doesn't mean the games won't sell well. By the way here are a couple of Cricket and Rugby games. 

Cricket 2004

Brian Lara International Cricket 2007 ( Named Ricky Ponting International Cricket in Australia, and Yuvraj Singh International Cricket in India)

Cricket 07

etc.

Rugby League

Rugby 07

Rugby Challenge 2006 etc.

It's almost like we already HAVE a sport called football(a MUCH more interesting sport at that). It would be wii-tarded to call them the same thing here. And besides, you shall cow-tow to my power! ;)
