NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Nintendo's celebrating the ninth anniversary of Sin and Punishment (N64) with a sequel on the Wii. The original S&P was a Nintendo 64 game developed by Treasure which was an on-rails shooting action game where the protagonists did their shooting while running on land and flying through the air. The sequel takes place in a dystopian future where Earth has been wrecked and devastated so the heroes have to plan their escape from the ruined planet.
Sin and Punishment 2 hews to the same type of game as the original where players control a heroine named Kachi or a hero known as Isa. The heroes flit around the foreground and shoot at installations, enemies, and objects in the background and the mid-ground. When an enemy wanders into the foreground, Kachi or Isa can swing a sword to destroy it. The Nunchuk is used to maneuver the hero around while the Wii Remote controls a targeting reticule that spots enemies for destruction. Two projectile attacks are available - a steady stream of unlimited bullets which are activated by pressing and holding the "B" button and a powerful laser blast that takes time to charge and is activated by pressing the "A" button.
