  Published: 2010-10-24, Author: James , review by: nintendoworldreport.com

  • Abstract:  The life of a pirate has long been romanticized in popular culture. Even in the twilight of the Age of Discovery, the idea of a band of rogues answering to no law but their own had a certain appeal. Despite this, there aren't that many video games th...

  • Open world with ability to do as you please in the Caribbean. Wii exclusive minigames are fun additions.
  • Minigames can get repetitive. Manual was a waste of paper, with no useful info about the game.

  • Outstanding port with new customization and great controls,
  • No real voice acting.
  • 2K Games and Firaxis Games have brought us Sid Meier’s Pirates! for the Nintendo Wii. This port of the successful PC game that was launched in 2004 brings some new additions, such as additional customization as well as some new mini-games. Does Sid M...

  • Abstract:  There is no question Sid Meier’s Pirates! was an excellent game. With the original released in 1987 and the its remake hitting the shelves in 2004, the original Pirates! came out before genre for video games had really settled down, creating the kind o...

  • Impressive freedom to play how you want to play, Wiiexclusive bombardment and lockpicking minigames are good additions, Ship combat is tactical and enjoyable.
  • Minigames get old quickly, Unresponsive controls hamper dancing and swordfighting minigames, Some grainy visuals and performance issues, Flimsy manual and poor tutorial for a game with so much complexity.
  • Control issues and other frustrations make this a very disappointing version of the classic game of adventure on the high seas....

  • Abstract:  My anticipation for Sid Meier’s Pirates on the Wii was heavy. I had never played Sid Meier’s Pirates! before, but the kind words about the PC version had me hoping for the best. I mean, who doesn’t enjoy a good video game about scurvy pirates? But, as...

  • Abstract:  Ports of games aren't necessarily a surprising thing. Publishers do it all the time, it's common for a title to find its way onto another platform these days. But what about ports of older titles? Now that's something you don't see very often. When 2K ...

  • It has pirates – and who doesn’t love pirates? Well presented and the Wii does a good job of recreating six-year-old graphics.
  • The motion controls just don’t work the way they should. Just let me use my Classic Controller please…please!

  • Viele Missionen, Große Entscheidungsfreiheit, Dynamische Welt, Pirat sein ist einfach toll, Interessante Upgrades für die Schiffe,
  • Fehlende Anleitung, Zufalls Kämpfe, Umständliche Menüs
  • Pirates! hinterlässt einen zwiespältigen Eindruck. Auf der einen Seite kommt der Suchtfaktor auf, ein Schiff nach dem anderen zu plündern und wenn es sogar ein Schiff der eigenen Nation ist. Das macht einfach Spaß! Leider sind die Schwertkämpfe mit s...

  • Abstract:  "Sid Meier's Pirates!" ist einer dieser Klassiker, denen der Zahn der Zeit nichts anzuhaben scheint. Seit kurzem kann man nun auch auf der Wii die Fahne hissen und in See stechen.Im Laufe der fast jahrzehntelangen Geschichte des ursprünglich 1987 auf d...
