Pool would be a great game!

Don't you guys think that Pool would be a great game? It'd be just like a Wii Sports game.

Setting: You're in a billiard room, either playing against AI or with your friends.

Controls: You'd use the Wiimote as the pole, and the nunchuk as your hand/thumb on the table to steady the poll. To lock in your position you could use either A or B, and then you could do the pull-back motion with the Wiimote (not having to worry about keeping it entirely steady, since the stick's position is already locked in) to hit the ball.

I know there's details like chalk and putting english on the ball, but do you guys think it'd be a cool game? Or too complicated?

Ooh, then never mind.

I wonder how they're going to use the Wiimote/nunchuk, though.

Wii Play will only use the Wiimote. You get a wiimote when you purchase Wii Play.

Do you know when it's coming out? Is there a single link where it explains in detail about Wii Play? Because I've heard about it on the forums but don't know much. Thanks brotha.

Yep, Duck Hunt will be amazing! Fishing looks so bad though. The graphics are as if they are drawn in crayon by a 2 year old.

wii play is awsome, i played it in store today.
i played Air hocky, shooting and pool.
Pool is played like this:
point on the white ball with the wiimote
when you got your spot hold down the A button
Then pull back and push forward like a pool cue
AWSOME!

It would be awesome if, with the Wii, you got Wii Play and Wii Sports. It would be even a better deal than the Wii is now. But we can only dream.
