I'm willing to give Sega a little faith on this one seeing as how I can't fathom anyone screwing up a port of a three-year-old arcade game.
But if they fail then all is lost.
And the screens still don't look right, they're far too bright and thus show off the little imperfections the game has had since the arcade version.
Oh and the circle shadows were present in the arcade version too.
BTW: I also don't see the big deal about lack of online play. I don't think gun games really work online.

Well, this is interesting.... I browsed around the net searching pictures of Ghost Squad's arcade version. And look what I found!

The arcade version uses a cursor. It's a perfect fit for the Wii.

Wait, coud "enhanced port" mean a port of Ghost Squad Evolution?
Also, I wonder if the need for a cursor in lightgun games could be eliminated with something like two sensor bars?
I hope a third party attemps something similar with the PS3 and 360 (nextgen Guncon?).

Namco has announced Time Crisis 4 w/ the gun for PS3 IIRC.

Nothing concrete(no screens or anything) but there you go.
PowerSmell said:
If your talking about a direct beam from the gun to a point on the screen(rather than a relative movement of the cursor done with tilt), then it could be done with just one sensor, but would have to have some setup. In reality, I would like both options so I could play facing away from the tv.

i support this chihiro/xbox->wii port because
a) it's sega; the wii version will look worse for unknown reasons, but which will be easily pinned on the wii's shit hardware regardless
b) this will fuel further xbox versus wii hardware arguments, further entrenching the wii as only relevant in last-gen graphics discussions
c) ...
d) drinky crow will profit

Very inconsistent lighting. Disappointing.
It could be done with three non-colinear IR beacons. It would be best if the three points formed an isosceles right triangle or the shape of a capital letter 'L' (turned on its side, inverted, doesn't matter) and if the distance between each point was a constant known beforehand. That last bit is part of the problem, since TVs are all different sizes the vertical portion of the right triangle must vary, making calibration trickier.PowerSmell said:
Once you have your triangle you can calibrate to your TV screen, and then it SHOULD remain in calibration as you move about the room (to a limited degree). Just don't move the IR emitters.

Looks the same or a bit better on the Wii (but the photo of the arcade isn't clean neither...)
The Wii shot was resized properly while it looks like the arcade shot was rescaled...it looks like the wii version has lighting omitted for some reason (they might improve it with a later build so i will reserve judgement for now)

Will Have to get a Wii just for the Sega games. So far Sega's support is as good as the early X-box support.
Ghost squad
Sonic and the secert of the ring
Nights2
Monkey Ball Banana Blitz.
All are top notch games.

true.
if you look at OutRun2 and OutRun2 SP on Xbox which only had 64 MB RAM, there's not really a noticable drop in texture quality from the arcade versions (512 MB) unless you're really looking for it.
on another note: hey Sega can we PLEASE have Daytona USA & Daytona USA 2, even if you rename them "SEGA Racing 1 & 2 " ?

Awesome i love light gun games. Ive been waiting for some more content like this. 4 players is crazy, though I do hope they have an option to support the wii remote, as I don't think i'd pay for 4 peripherials to play it. Any release date given?

Finally.. more light gun games. Sounds like the perfect rental.
Sega is known for making good light gun games so I think this is a pretty nifty announement.. And It looks slightly different than the arcade version, but i wouldn't say it looks worse.
In fact, it's hard to decide which one looks better. There are differences but they don't really put one game above the other.
