the wii isn't really that hard to control, honestly, because if you practice it's hella easy to aim and control and such, and it honestly doesn't matter that wii gaming is only casual? like some people don't like the intense stuff or can't handle it so the wii is a great console - just like some people can't stand the wii games so they go for stuff like skyrim, etc, that take more concentration, skill, and a better machine (which some people can't afford). it's really only what you like to do. don't get me wrong, i love skyrim and fps just as much as the next guy, but i've had a ton of fun playing wii tennis and mario kart, too.
