Smackdown Vs Raw 2008 Instruction Manual - Wii
Friday, March 7th, 2008 by Nick Maunders
Now I can imagine the amount of you buying Smackdown Vs Raw 2008 and finding the instruction manual useless. Or you could have bought it second hand without any manual in it. Well I am going to write my version (a lot more helpful than the original) for you.
This is the Wii version that I’m writing for:
Basic Movement
Okay well the first and most important move would be how to control your superstar.
You do this by moving the control stick on the nunchuk, so up makes your wrestler move up etc. With running and walking as far as I can find (from playing it) if you move the control stick a smidge in one direction you will walk, while if you do a lot you will run.
Striking
To strike normally (punch etc) you move the wii remote. You can do 4 different strikes by moving the wii remote up, down, left or right. To do a running strike make sure you are away from your opponent and swing the wii remote. There is only one type so it doesn’t matter what direction you swing it.
Grapples
Now for grapples (throws etc). To do a quick grapple hold down the ‘A’ button on the wii remote and swing the remote. There are 4 possible moves to do so swing it either up, down, left or right. To do a running grapple make sure your away from the opponent and hold down either the ‘A’ or ‘B’ button and swing the wii remote.
Interactive grapples are well …. interactive. So they require you to do that one thing extra. To initiate them hold down the ‘B’ button on the wii remote and swing it, in any of the four directions I mentioned earlier. However this time there will be 4 arrows in the top left hand corner of the screen. Some will be grey and some (or all) green. The green arrows show you which direction you can move the wii remote in again. So if the right and left arrows are green you can then move the remote either left or right. (See picture below)
Counter Attacks
Just like in previous games you can counter moves. To do a strike counter swing the wii remote just as they are going to punch you. To do a grapple counter hold down the ‘A’ or ‘B’ button and then swing the remote just as they’re going to throw you.
Special Moves
To do your superstars favourite move hold down the ‘A’ and ‘B’ button and swing the remote. But make sure that your opponents health meter is yellow or below. To do your finisher hold down ‘A’ and ‘B’ and swing the remote but make sure your opponents health is red. To pin your opponent press the ‘Z’ button.
Taunts
To taunt your opponent hold down the ‘C’ button and then move your hands just like the taunt. So for example with the DX taunt where you cross your hands, just hold down ‘C’ and cross your hands and it will do it on screen. To do an irish whip swing the nunchuk and move the control stick in the direction you want to move your opponent in.
Turnbuckle / Getting out of the Ring
Now to get onto a turnbuckle all you have to do is walk to it. This is the same with getting in and out of the ring; just walk there.
I hope that this instruction manual has helped you and if there is anything I’ve missed all something you don’t understand simply add a comment or go into the about me section and email me.
