tons of fun!

Post Via amazon in Wii Games Review

Sonic Riders Zero Gravity
I love this game! It's fun and it does have some flaws but it still deserves 5 stars. the story line was a little hard to follow but descently funny. turning is a little hard-but you can get the hang of it soon. the 'gear change' feature looked cool in the trailer but it's basically just pushing a button and changing boards. it costs rings: bad very bad. Some characters have to be unlocked by finishing story modes and missions. Like I said the story is ok but not great you can do the story as both sonic and jet but you have to finish sonic's point of view before you can do jet's. and there are 3 kinds of multiplayer so you can play with your friends as a team as enemies or play mini-games which are fun. i do wish though that in story mode you could pick who you are. and the game is auto-saving so you don't have to worry if you get through a tough level and don't save. it's a very good game I think it's better than mariokart it has a lot more features vehicles and characters.

Mercury Meltdown is so good!

Post Via amazon in Wii Games Review

Mercury Meltdown: Revolution
Just like all the reviewers have already shared -- this is an excellent game -- challenging (but doable with practice), multiple levels, bright colors, different views of the mazes, sound/music is cool (not irritating). This game is for the little kids right on up to the grandparents! GREAT FAMILY FUN or INDIVIDUAL PLAY (get some practice in before playing with the family so you have the advantage!). I am sure this game will continue to be used often through the years.

WELL WORTH THE MONEY -- way better than many games that cost 2x or 3x the price!

Did I mention the useful tutorial? Also, handheld wii control responds swell -- no problems -- no delays -- hangups, etc.

You won't believe what they have done with a blob of mercury! (it's alive!)

Do any of you remember the wooden labryinth game with the knobs on two sides -- you maneuvered the little silver ball through the maze and tried to avoid dropping through the holes? Think of that -- HIGH TECH!

Fun game, especially for the price!

Post Via amazon in Wii Games Review

Petz Dogz 2
I got this game primarily because it had a miniature schnauzer available as a breed(!), but I actually find it fun and a great way to utilize Wii gaming without such fast-paced gameplay as I get with Mario Kart Wii, PES 2008, or Guitar Hero III. The graphics are solid, the different locales in this game are expansive, and the tasks are numerous. Also, this game seems to be very similar in style to The Dog Island for the Wii which came out more recently (both from UbiSoft), so I recommend this one if you want to save some $$$ but get a fun-to-play game at a great value...

Make sure you have enough batteries for all of your wiimotes!

Post Via amazon in Wii Accessories Review

Wii Battery Kit - Colors May Vary
If you have a nyko charging station and more than two wiimotes you'll definitely want one of these batteries. Works with the charging station and wiimotes, and does not make the wiimote to big and bulky to fit into wii accessories like the jacket, the wheel, and the crossbow. These batteries only work with the nyko charger though--so be warned!

Must have for Wii Owners

Post Via amazon in Wii Accessories Review

Wii Battery Kit - Colors May Vary
The battery pack is a must have for Wii owners. They last much longer than straight batteries, and it is so much nicer to never have to worry about switching out batteries. You just place the controller in a charger, and you have a functional Wii remote whenever you feel like playing. Great purchase.

An Extremely Strong Flavor

Post Via amazon in Wii Games Review

No More Heroes
As the reviews here prove, this is a game you will either love or hate. It's over-the-top with style - punk style. Some don't seem to realize that the lack of fine gloss is an intentional part of that style, but oh well. I wouldn't force it on anybody, but it would be a crying shame if it doesn't find it's audience.

The gameplay is as follows:
1. Take a menial job to earn money - these are quick mini-games which are hilarious and fun. This will open up
2. Carry out an assassination job - hack and slash w/in set parameters, time limits, etc.
3. Once you have enough money take on a boss (after you hack and slash your way through his identical henchmen)

You can also buy upgrades to clothes/equipment/abilities etc. in ways that can also be fun and hilarious. People complain about the dead city, but I enjoy just driving around - there's a lot of detail to see, in-jokes etc. You can dig up treasure, kick open dumpsters, search back alleys, and so forth.

Overall, this is a tribute to videogames of all kinds. The feel of it is closest to Viewtiful Joe, though I can't entirely explain why. The combat is described as button-mashing, but if you read the manual you can see that it is deeper than that - you'll need the extra technique to beat higher difficulties.

Generally, I try to enumerate things that might bug people, but here it's impossible - either the whole thing will quickly annoy and frustrate you to madness, or you'll eat it up like candy.

Great Game for Kids of All Ages

Post Via amazon in Wii Games Review

Wall-E
I generally dont like movie tie -in games, but Wall-e is truly amazing visually and is great play-wise as well, a rare feat. This is an amazing game for kids! Mine cannot get enough of it. My son is 7 and he absolutly loves playing this game. This game is not very easy and has many levels completely different from each other, is what makes it unique compared to other cartoon games. All the Pixar / Disney characters from the movie appear on this game. I strongly recomend this product to family with kids of ages between 4 and 14.

Incredibly in depth!

Post Via amazon in Wii Games Review

MLB Power Pros
First off, I was never really a big baseball fan. I do love sports games on gaming consoles though and figured I'd give this a shot. Wow, am I impressed! The game is so very in depth with all of the stats and season mode plus a pretty cool college mode where you try to balance your life, girlfriend, job and practice.

Apparently this is a port of a PS2 game, but the port over to the Wii seems very solid. I only wish there was more use out of the wiimote besides the limited use it has. Awesome game and a great pick up at the price. Could easily be a full price game.

Favorite baseball game yet!

MLB Power Pros
i don't care much for graphics when it comes to video games. i'm all about the gameplay and entertainment, and this game covers both bases (no pun intended. heh.)! great gameplay, great wii remote handling and you can play wii remote physical (ala wii sports) or wii remote classic sit down (old school nintendo). highly enjoyable even if you're playing alone. i've been highly addicted to this game. can say the same for a few other games.
