You too can play surgeon

Strengths: Gameplay, story

Weakness: Controls can be off at times

Trauma Center: Second Opinion is a surgeon sim for Nintendo Wii. You play as Dr. Derek Stiles a surgeon operating on patients with various problems. The game really uses the wii-mote to engross you in the gameplay. Like stitching up a patients wounds or picking out shards of glass stuck in a patient. Only problem I had was controls take some time getting used to the precision needed in doing some of the surgical operations. I enjoyed this game and I'm sure many others will too.

I give the game 4 stars.

You need to play this game, STAT!

Strengths: Looks great. Great story. Fantastic controls. Lots of fun.

Weakness: Can be hard. Slightly repetative if you've played it for the DS

Trauma Center is a perfect fit for the Wii as a release game. If you played the Ds version you know that you star as a young doctor who trys to save lives from a mysterious plague called GUILT. Where you used the stylus on the DS, you use the Wii Remote to perform your surguries on the Wii. Some of the content is recycled from the first game. But learning the new controls makes it slightly fresh...

But learning the new controls makes it slightly fresh and there is some new content too. This is highly recommended to those who like puzzle games which require some dexerity.

One Of My Favorite Games I Own

Strengths: The overall gameplay and intenss action secquensis are not bogged down by the somtimes lenghthy cut secens which in most games can be very boring but in this game I belive the designers did a nice job

Weakness: the lack of extra missions after comleteing a chapter. there was alot of the game completely centerd around the main charecter nice but repeditive

I really enjoyed this game and would and have recommend it to my friends i give it a 5 out of 5 so if you have the money get it if you don't have the money then save up for it and if you cant do that then sell something just get this very intense WII opener

Great Game!

Strengths: Great gameplay, can get you sucked in quickly.

Weakness: At first, controls can be a bit awkward, but it is easy to get use to.

Trauma Center is a game that I enjoy playing. I have recommended it to several friends who also like it. It's a game that is easy to learn and that is fun to play. It also has good replay value. I have gone back to all of the operations to at least get an A, or the coveted S (Master Surgeon) on all the levels.

Help Me!

Strengths: unique gameplay, 3 difficulty modes

Weakness: remake of ds version, nothing new

This game is just like the Nintendo DS version which was kind of disappointing if you already owned it. It brought nothing new, except the ability to display it on a television screen. Even though the game was a port of the ds version, the ability to select the difficulty level was very helpful!! Without that option, I wouldnt be able to fully experience the game, as it was extremely difficult...

This game is just like the Nintendo DS version which was kind of disappointing if you already owned it. It brought nothing new, except the ability to display it on a television screen. Even though the game was a port of the ds version, the ability to select the difficulty level was very helpful!! Without that option, I wouldnt be able to fully experience the game, as it was extremely difficult for me on the ds version (I was stuck on 5th level). Using the wii remote increased gameplay considerably, almost mimicing real life actions such as the picking things up with the forceps.

The object of the game is to complete the task of each scenario and stabilize your patient. Even though this is a video game, it helped me realize I made the right choice of not choosing becoming a doctor as my profession.
