When we brought to you news about the Prince of Persia: Rival Swords title coming to the Wii we could tell that many were skeptical at how our favorite acrobatic, death-defying sword-swinging Prince could be controlled with a wireless wand.

The video below demonstrates just how you could both fight enemies as skillfully as if you were using a gamepad or attempt those skillful stunts with the Wiimote and the nunchuk add-on. As a port of the Ubisoft's original Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones, Rival Swords adapts just about every graphic detail in the PC version of the game.

And keep an keen ear and sharp eye out: word is that Prince of Persia is going to become a big Hollywood movie hit!
