Wii'ly Addictive February 12, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is effectively a very budget game considering how much the `wii-stick' would cost separately.
I watched my missus run through each of the nine games, and whilst each game acted as a tutorial in the art of `Wii-stick' waggling, I thought the games looked okay - but nothing spectacular. Infact, I though some looked a bit poor.
But when I had a go at them I realised how great they really are! Shooting Range is a modern adaptation of Duck Hunt, so the concept is simple, but the game is addictive. And the rest of the games follow suit - basic concepts, most being quite familiar from past games, but very playable.
My favourite game is Tanks - a brilliant little game in which you manoeuvre a little tank around an arena to try blow up the opposing tanks.
In a nutshell: The graphics are good but not mind blowing, but this is an example of what Nintendo are best at - bringing out games which might not be as graphically mind blowing as many others, but are highly addictive - and with the two player modes a whole new dimension of competitiveness is added! The Cow Racing game (although not the best racing game ever) has definitely wetted my appetite for Mario Kart Wii when it comes out! Excellent value for money.

One of the best games for wii that I've bought. Features 9 different games to help you practice your wii remote skills. Shooting Range, Find Mii, Table Tennis, Pose Mii, Laser Hockey, Billiards, Fishing, Charge and Tanks. Highly reccomended!
Wii Play - Value For Money December 29, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Wii play, priced at around 35 should be regarded as a definite purchase purely due to its value for money. In effect you are paying 5 for a game with an additional 30 (retail value) for a wii remote.
Wii play itself is actualy rather fun, given its low price tag. I must admit my single player experience with the game has been nothing if dull. However, the mini games realy are entertaining, especialy the duck hunting.
Games worth mentioning are Shooting, Laser Hockey and Tanks, although wiiplay makes you play through all the minigames in order to progressivly unlock them.
Shooting does take a certain degree of skill (i am hopeless at it). You are given a number of stages in which to achieve high points in. You shoot at plates, targets, ducks, coke cans and even aliens. Overall, it stands out as the most entertaining minigame.
Laser hockey definitly draws inspiration from pong, and it is rumoured to have a physics engine equivelant to doom 3. However, i found the controls slightly too jerky and jittery.
Table Tennis was the major disapointment. The controls are also too sensitive and jittery. It becomes almost impossible to play shots at times, and it is worse when you are not playing the computer.
Overall, Wiiplay is the ideal accompaniment too the Wii console, especialy as it comes with a free remote. After playing wiiplay, i found using the remote on other games far easier than i might have done without, and the multiplayer is second to none. The learning curve is around 5 minutes, which is ideal for non gamers or youngsters.

Got this as wanted another controller so that the kids could play against each other on other games, and to be honest it worked out well by buying the Wii play and controller as you basically get another controller plus a set of games to play. (Must admit the tune is quite catchy and you may find yourself humming it).
Would be a brilliant idea to have one game with say a sample of quite a few different ones on, then you could choose which one to then next buy, as sometimes when bought and tried you then end up not liking them or them not being quite what you thought originally. (Like a sample from Sonic, Spiderman etc..)
I think it is really good especially if you have younger children as sometimes they get fed up playing a longer game, ours have Raving Rabbits but it does not get played as much as this. I honestly thought our kids would be on it all the time, but no, keep catching husband playing though, men and gadgets!
I think that we all play as a family together on it doing the daily fitness test, so the Wii does bring some quality time playing together in the house, something that cateers for a wide age range without too many squabbles.
Well worth the money as you get quite a few hours entertainment/experience/practice of using the controls,(but in chunks rather than having to finish another level, you know you always say, "when this level is done we will finish", but it doesn't always happen like that, and sooner or later a good few hours could have passed, be warned time does fly when playing.
We have also found that sometimes you just want to spend say half an hour playing on it and you then don't get too hooked, especially near bedtime for youngsters (could say "yes, play the ice hockey game then bed"). You know what they say bribery works sometimes, not all the time though, but worth a try.
The target game is great, as is the ice hockey and others (our kids like the fishing one the best). For all levels really, (beginners through to experienced players that just need to keep their hand in on the control front) and all ages, (nice to see the older and younger generations play together) a great thing to have about over the holiday period.
Only problem is that as you have another controller, then another nuchuck will have to be purchased as some stage, more money !
