If you have any ideas on how the WiiMote could be used for cricket, post them here.
My ideas:
When Batting
- you use only the WiiMote
- Simply the WiiMote is the bat
- press a button to run, and lift up the WiiRemote to call, no to a run which could have a cool shout of no coming from the WiiMote.
When feilding/bowling
- Should be allowed to choose your position on the feild
- so if you want to be on the boundary you can be
- this is a good idea so you could use the nunchuck and the remote as extensions of your arms so you can make catches.
- bowling would be simple just make a bowling motion twist the control different ways for different types of bowls.
- press and hold a button to start the run up, and release after the bowling motion to throw the ball.
- maybe instead of choosing position the game could revert control to a player in a catching position when a catch may occur.
- depending on how close you are, you would have less reaction time making slip catches harder. Kinda like when you intercept in nfl the screen rotates while the game is paused.
- it could turn to a 3D fighter style so you could just see your hands and the ball coming. This would bring a new feature to cricket games impossible to do on other consoles.
