 Ok game, but will be difficult for children Dec 07, 2008
By tifany710
Although I have not played this game too much I figured I would write a review for those wondering what this game is even about. First, this is suppose to be a "family" game, yet as a 21 year old I found some of the games difficult to "win." If you are looking to get this for young children I would advise you not to. Also, you have to unlock many of the games, which I have yet to do so when you get the game you only have about 18 of the 30 games to play. The controls are sometimes difficult to operate and most of them involve the same motions. I played with 2 players and you play against 2 "computer" plays as well. The computer players were pretty good at the games and I'm not sure if you can change their levels. All the games are really short, 2 minutes or less and are timed. If you don't complete it in the set time the game is over. The games that I played didn't require the nunchuk, only the remote. Overall, this game is "ok" but don't expect too much fun or hours of entertainment.

 Great ideas for wii controls, but fails Jan 12, 2009
By LanaFire
There are reviews at: familyfriendlygaming, gamechroniicles, gamespot, IGN & gamevortex. all give medicore scores.
all agree the graphics have nice details, but having ALL gameplay in 4 quadrants even in single player mode is annoying, lazy & makes it hard to see.
the instructions are vague but the controls are complex. I found the controls to be interesting complex like an old arcade game, but I couldn't understand what they wanted exactly. you never use the nunchuck for any game. all agreed the simpler the controls, the better it worked. I had trouble with response with even lifting/lowering flags in one simple mini-game & felt that you really had to put oommpphhh into your movements for it to be recognized (or maybe this game is really that broken sometimes).
there is debate about how broken/responsive the controls are or how much the A.I. cheat. some reviewers had trouble with the balance, but I excelled at it & easy for me such as balancing on cushions or running balance. I found the barrel throw was impossible as you have to hit A at the right time & then lift the wii mote in perfect even balance. I found that you needed to have split second millisecond timing for all movements in all the games which is VERY frustrating like it wanted to be a simulation. even firing a cannon had the arc & slowness for further distances like real life or running on a barrel had delayed response like reality.
This game would have been better if there was some humor involved, some of the sound bites help, but there's not enough & the A.I. movements are on a loop before/after or even during a game.
the only customization at first is choosing a family member from kid to grandparent.
There are different sections to play in a tournament, but you have to win all those games to unlock more games. only half the game is unlocked. you can do battle/quickplay of 1 or more games with 1-4 players at any time, but it won't unlock anything.
be prepared to see "FAILED" a lot & a lot of forced replay until you excel at games in order to unlock more.
this game had some great ideas in terms of use of controls & more complex sport mini-games to keep interest & focus, but because of poor instructions, small screen so you can't see ahead to time your responses, non-warned sim complexity, quirky A.I., inability to have different A.I. difficulty & obvious lazy/poor programing, this game only manages to frustrate.
wisely, I only rent all my games first.

Not very exciting Jan 06, 2009
By R. K. Fite
Kids got this for christmas (12, 10, 7). Played it once and then tossed it aside. They said it was weird and really not any fun. I think they need to give it another chance but they are not interested. We saw it at the store for $20.00 and daugther 10 said "Well, what do you expect from such a cheap game?"
Since when is $20.00 cheap?
I think it is not user friendly enough.

 Don't bother buying Feb 16, 2009
By A. Devaney
"eeyore"
This game is awful. If you are using a "smaller tv" the four quadrants make things very difficult to see. The controls require too much coordination and the games that are on the front aren't even ones that are unlocked. None of the shooting games are unlocked nor are the strategy. I am very disapponted in this game and wish it was possible to return it and get my money back.

tough to unlock Jan 14, 2009
By Kats View
It would have been nice to know that you only get half the games unless you are skillful enough to unlock the other half. Some of the games are hard and frustrating but you have to play them if you want to unlock anymore. We have been trying for almost three weeks and still have not been able to unlock any other games.
