The Wii game mirrors the real sport\u2019s use of open space and the exploitation of defensive lapses and accurate passes essential in creating scoring opportunities. The Wii version of PES 2008 expands on these elements, with the use of the Nunchuck and Wii Remote controllers giving the player control over both the player on the ball, and those around him.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: normal;\"><b><span lang=\"en\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, 'sans-serif';\" xml:lang=\"en\">Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 Features:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: normal;\"><span lang=\"en\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, 'sans-serif';\" xml:lang=\"en\">Using a point and drag system, the player uses the Wii Remote to guide the player with the ball, and perform all the skill moves and close control with subtle movements of their hand. Instantly, the Wii Remote is used to point at nearby players to select them to receive a pass or to latch on to a through-ball. The Remote can also be used to steer the run of the receiving player, giving extra control as they thread through masses of defenders or run into open space.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: normal;\"><span lang=\"en\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, 'sans-serif';\" xml:lang=\"en\">The new system gives the player full control over their team, and allows the man marking of specific threats, while shakes of the Wii Nunchuk can be used to perform sliding tackles, and send the goal keeper out to clear a loose ball. The strategic elements are also easily accessed, with the directional controls of the Wii Remote used to activate tactical plays and spring counter attacks or send players tracking back.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: normal;\"><span lang=\"en\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, 'sans-serif';\" xml:lang=\"en\">PES 2008 for Wii features six game modes, spanning Match, League and Cup elements, and Training and Trade section. The new version also features an exclusive \u2018Champions Road\u2019 competition, wherein players take their chosen team to compete in league competitions all over the world. The idea of the Champions Road tournament is to come top in every league, and build a team by receiving players from recently defeated sides.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: normal;\"><span lang=\"en\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, 'sans-serif';\" xml:lang=\"en\">Experience points are added to all used players after a match, and bolster the attacking ability, technique and stamina. Extra skills can also be unlocked, allowing users to piece together a \u2018Dream Team\u2019 that constantly grows as they become more successful. Additional mini-tasks are also randomly set during the course of a Champions Road match, too, such as scoring a hat-trick, and succeeding allows the player to add higher-rated players to their team.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: normal;\"><span lang=\"en\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, 'sans-serif';\" xml:lang=\"en\">Full Mii support is also present, and users can integrate up to 16 pre-defined Miis into a team, while the ever-changing teams can be stored on to the Wii Remote and switched between two linked Remotes. PES 2008 also has a strong online element, allowing users to play \u2018Free Matches\u2019 against unknown opponents, or \u2018Friend Matches\u2019 against people on the Wii\u2019s Friends list. Team data can also be sent to friends via the console\u2019s WiiConnect24 system.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, 'sans-serif';\">Barcode: 4012927090701<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, 'sans-serif';\">Age: 3+<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Created specifically to make full use of the Wii\u2019s unique control system, PES 2008 brings all the realism of Pro Evolution Soccer to the Nintendo machine, but with a more \u2018team-orientated\u2019 control system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17453\" src=\"https:\/\/letsgameit.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/PEGI_3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"60\" height=\"73\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":19314,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_editorskit_title_hidden":false,"_editorskit_reading_time":0,"_editorskit_is_block_options_detached":false,"_editorskit_block_options_position":"{}","inline_featured_image":false},"product_brand":[266],"product_cat":[327,522],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-219","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-konami-digital-entertainment","product_cat-classic-nintendo","product_cat-nintendo-wii","first","instock","sale","sold-individually","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/letsgameit.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/219","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/letsgameit.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/letsgameit.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/letsgameit.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=219"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/letsgameit.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19314"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/letsgameit.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=219"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/letsgameit.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=219"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/letsgameit.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=219"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/letsgameit.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=219"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
