The hit Nintendo DS surgical simulator comes to Nintendo's new home
console in this remake (or 'Wii-make') with vastly updated graphics, a
second playable character, a new sixth chapter and new instruments to
wield - this time with the Wii controllers.
In Trauma Center: Second Opinion you take the role of rookie doctor
Derek Stiles - a young surgeon with the extraordinary 'Healing Touch'
ability - as he is enlisted into the secret Caduceus organisation to
combat a deadly new disease.
In the DS version you used the touch screen and stylus to perform
surgical procedures but in this Wii version you can get totally hands-on
by using the motion sensitive Wii Remote and Nunchuk.
With a controller in each hand you will be able to manipulate more than
a dozen different instruments on-screen in realistic ways; such as
injecting with syringes, making incisions with scalpels, removing
tumours with tweezers ('pinching' by pressing the A and B buttons
together) and bringing patients back to life with a shock from the
defibrillator paddles (by moving both hands forward and pressing buttons
on both controllers simultaneously).
By using two controllers, you can use one hand (the Nunchuk) to select
instruments and the other (the Wii Remote) to wield them. This way, you
can even play together with a partner by holding one controller each;
one of you is the doctor and the other is the nurse! Plus, the Wii
Remote's built-in rumble feature allows you to feel every delicate move
you make.
