Lego Star Wars for Wii - same as XBox 360 version?

[Dougmeister]

My kids are *big* Lego Star Wars fans (the Lego kits, the minifigs, the video games). They love the XBox 360 versions (we have the Original Trilogy, the Complete Saga, etc.)

They got a Wii for Christmas and I'm wondering if they would enjoy the Wii version or if it is pretty much the exact same thing as the XBox 360 version? I would imagine that the Wii remote (motion controller) might make a small difference, but hardly enough to justify buying the game.

Thoughts?

I'm not sure if there is enough of a difference to justify getting the Wii version if you already have the 360 version.

I have the 360 version as well and wouldn't personally buy the Wii versions

The Wii motion controls are not used in the Lego games. You just use the remote buttons pretty much the same way you use the buttons on the XBOX controller, and as far as I know, the games are identical on the different platforms.
