Yeah, PES on Wii is probably the most inventive football game since about 1993. The concept is genius and the execution is great, you just need to rethink a lot about how football games are played in order to get into it. I remember playing a few games with my mate because he knew how to play, it was kind of a pointless. He really needed to borrow the Wii for a couple of days get the hang of it. A shame, really, because it had the potential to be the best football game ever. Really.
I've been working my way through Galaxy but also trying out a few other recommendations in the thread, and replaying some of my old faves. Resi 4 is so so much better on the Wii than any other version. I recently got it on the Switch and the single stick control feels so clunky and restrictive these days, I just can't get into it. Then I picked up the Wii version, and it felt second nature and amazing, and I realised that I've never really played it much elsewhere. I did actually complete the GC version just before the Wii one came out but it's been superceded completely in my muscle memory.
Wish I could get GC games going, though. I really want to play Sunshine, F-Zero GX and Wave Race because I only scratched the surface back in the day and they were all in Jap gibberish. Sunshine especially has been calling me for fifteen years. I'm gonna tinker today until I crack it.
