As good as Wii controls would make a fishing game, I don't want kiddie looking fishies or ancient technology rendering my waters and catches. I'd kill for a great, realistic, and fun current gen fishing game on 360/PS3. Hopefully once Natal and the wand are out, some developer will get to work on doing just that. I grew to enjoy the genre on Dreamcast, but I've yet to see any release since that clearly tells me, "I'm new and better than what you've played before."
@Americo: I think it all looks slightly fishy. They try to lure us in with these gimmicky controllers then worm out of making a good game. It'll probably have a boat load of issues but they'll still make a nice net profit.
Just stating the facts not trying to be a trawler.
@Michael Dukakis for Senate!: I wasn't going to respond to the obvious troll bait, but you caught me, hook, line, and sinker.
Anyone who doesn't see how bassass this game is going to be deserves to be filleted. You're just a fish out of water, floundering around trying to stir up trouble.
@Michael Dukakis for Senate!: Just trying to drown out the fan bouys who bob around complaining just because they can't sea the quality. Don't dismiss it just because it doesn't float your boat.
@Yossarian: I won't deny it may be a keeper. They'll really need to spin me around. If it works, hell I'll do a jig. I'll wait til release, though I think it will still be carp.
@Michael Dukakis for Senate!: I'm not disagreeing with you one bit. I just found it VERY interesting. I never thought about a finishing game on the Wii.
@WhiteMage: Totilo posted an ingenious fishing rod not long ago that used the nunchuk inside the reel. This doesn't look quite as sharp, but I'm sure it's far less likely to destroy your analog stick as the other rod would.
Nice job on this mod. I don't know what it is with fishing games, but I always love playing them. In FFXI, I'd spend all day going to strange locations and just fish. Even virtually it's relaxing. I'd like to see a PSN downloadable game for fishing. Someone needs to get on that.
Does the reel have any use here or is it just for show? I ask because while I'm sure the Wii technology allows for superior casting, the Dreamcast's fishing rod would remain more fun I think. It also is for some reason the best console for fishing still which is sad since I'd love to see a good next gen fishing game that could handle something looking like Reel Wild Fishing in real-time.

I bet the high-cycle fatigue on the reel attachment is going to snap that baby in half within a few weeks of solid use.

Congrats on winning the hijack thread.
I was trying, but I just couldn't come up with another pun.

Why is it the first thing that comes to my mind is the Gundam GP03-D?
