It’s an excellent game but why a hybrid?

I’m not in the right position to be the judge of it - I was following this review (I’d have to classify Z&W* as an action-puzzler game) and several others, and I’ve seen some Youtube videos - I realize the “actions” with the Wii Remote like these:

are in the service of a gameworld puzzles, but it’s still a bit of an action.

Like wilco said, this is an adventure game and not a hybrid.

The action bits is just a bit of wiimote waggling for the interactions. It’s sad, the game will be lost in the Wii / WiiU library. Don’t know the potential for playing it with a emulator since it needs the wiimote.

It should work fine with Dolphin and it’s easy enough to get a second hand wiimote.

I have a wii but I end up playing most of my games on Dolphin instead, it looks better than on the Wii with SSAA.

I never tried Dolphin for Wii games, it’s easy to use the Wiimote on PC?

I use it on a mac and it’s very easy. I imagine it’d be the same on pc. The wiimote is just a bluetooth device so if you have bluetooth it will work.

The only thing that is be a bit annoying is that you need an IR emitter (I use the one from my wii but easiest is to use something called the dolphinbar which also does bluetooth [1]).
