So, How Exactly Would A Footie Game Work?

[Fierce_LiNk]

We've all been yearning for a realistic footie sim on the Wii, but how exactly would it work with the controller?

In what ways would you use the Wiimote to make it different?

Here are my thoughts...

Nunchuck setup:
Analogue stick - Player movement
Nunchuck movement - Shoulder barge
C Button - Button modifier (like L1 on the PS Pro Evo games - giving you "one-two's" and chipped through balls etc)
Z Button - Sprint
A Button - Pass/Standing tackle (off the ball)
B Button - Shoot/Sliding tackle (off the ball)
D Pad Down - Through ball/Pressurize (off the ball)
D Pad Left/Right - Chip/Lob

Maybe even the Pointer (just a little thought) - Off the ball movement. The pointer could be used to highlight an off the ball player by pointing at him and holding C, you could then move the selected player independantly to the player you're controlling with the analogue stick, by "dragging" him with the pointer while holding C

I would strap the Wiimote onto my foot!

Seriously, I think that Mario Strikers has a pretty good setup for a football game and hopefully EA/Konami think that aswell and try to expand on it.

Sort of like Kav's controls:

If the Wiimote ball control works well it should be a fine setup methinks.

Why not just have left foot = Nunchuk, right foot = Wiimote...?

Remote - Movement.

Nunchuck - Ball. (as in, it is the ball).

I would say pretty much the same as mario strikers. Except the gol keepong you would hold the remote with two hands ala Excite truck style, and save that way.
