Well then I suppose you're not sure about the meaning of the word port that we've used in the gaming community for years. I'm pretty sure there is no confusion by most what original games, ports, remakes, sequels, and spin-offs are. There are a few variations on how some people categorize closely related material but I've never seen anyone flat out calling original games or spin-offs ports, which is essentially what you're doing. Pangya Golf on Wii is a spin-off that is part of the same series as the MMO game on the PC but is also uniquely build for a single-player experience. Wii Love Golf is an original game that doesn't use any material from a game released before it in any market. Neither are ports.
Wait, so Pangya Golf on Wii isn't a port (in your view)?
Wow! There are loads of people and major sites, like 1up, calling it a port, which I'll stick with, thanks.
I'm not particularly interested in the finite semantics of videogamedom, what I meant was, it looks like the PC game is coming to Wii with motion controls, minus the MMO bit (probably), which I expect is what everybody else meant who suggested it. Call it what you want.
Regardless of what you think about original games, ports, remakes, sequels, spin-offs, etc, etc, Wii Love Golf looks like it could be a great game, which is all that really matters

I like how that Capcom Wii Golf reminds me more of Super Tennis than Pangaya or Wii Sports Golf, looks very promising
Yeah, there is that sense, and I loved Super Tennis. The best tennis game on the system, and one of the best ever, imo.
