I Need a PHD in NHL 2K9
Published May 26, 2009 @ 12:38 in Technology
I play NHL 2K9 on the Nintendo Wii with my son. We've been playing for a few months now, and I'm still struggling with the controls. There's just too much to learn.
When I was a kid, I played Ice Hockey and Blades of Steel on the NES and our control pad was simple. You could pass and shoot, slap shots or wrist shots, there were one-timers and player movement, but that's about it. Below are the controller instructions for NHL 2K9 on the Wii.
No wonder I'm struggling, that's hardcore. You know what I miss? I miss this work of art...

Those old Nintendo controllers hurt to use after more than 30 minutes or so. Talk about non-ergonomic.
I think the controls would be easier if it wasn't Wii. Some you have to just push a button, some just shake the remote, some push a button and shake... too many combos. Even with the 8+ buttons on an Xbox or PS3 controller, it's easier. This button does this, that button does that.
That being said, I still haven't mastered the more advanced stuff playing Madden...
