Wii-kest Mario Kart?

Advantages: Caters for the casuals, being able to slipstream
Disadvantages: Presentation average, a happy-go-lucky racer

...makes up part of the Mario Kart Wii package is a joke. And I'm not fond of having to shake the Wiimote to lessen the impact of an item. To even up the racing, your position determines what items becomes available, so the lower the driver position the chances of receiving the better items are greater. Although items can be lost, at times you'll just have to bite the bullet. Mario Kart Wii feels catered for the casuals - a party game and not really ...

Review of EA Sports Active (Wii)

Hello, I'm 33 and a wii-fit- aholic :o)

Advantages: Fun, fitness, and laughter.
Disadvantages: Only one mii can be used at a time, so you can't compete against others turn by turn.

...annoying people that love the wii fit. I am the one that will stand in the corner of the pub and sings its praises to all who will listen (usually nobody, but I'll try anyway). So why do I like it so much? Let me explain... Firstly - I waited so long to be able to get one. I spent hours around Christmas time, painstakingly refreshing various websites that promised me that they would find me a wii fit in stock. They didn't. So I gave up for a while ...
...owner of my very own wii fit and balance board. 2 months ago, I was walking past my local Game store and there it was - the news that I had been waiting for - Wii fit in stock! I checked, and there wasn't a catch - you didn't have to buy anything extra, it wasn't being sold in a bundle with something I didn't need or want, it was just the wii fit with board to take away today. I handed over my £69.99 and grinned stupidly all the way home. I have ...

I recently bought a wii and it obviously came supplied with the wii sport game but I decided I wanted to buy another game. I choose Wii play by nintendo. I bought the game as the cover looked interesting and the description of the game on the back caught my eye. So I put the game into the wii and started ...
...use different functions of the wii remote. The games include shooting range, find different characters, table tennis, match mii's pose, laser hockey, billiards, fishing, cow racing and a tank game. With all these games you can play with up to 2 people. My favourite games are the shooting range game, billiards and the cow racing game. The shooting range game is a game where you can play by yourself or with another person. You use the wii remote ...

Review of Wii Play (Wii)

Mario - back and better!

Advantages: The varied planets and formats
Disadvantages: the co-ordination of the controls

Super Mario is a classic format with modern graphics and game play on the wii. Once you get the hang of the controls (nunchuck to direct and various buttons to crouch etc and the controller to point and aim at 'star bits') it's very fun to play. Mario is joined by old characters Luigi and Peach and the usual baddies, but also joined by the stars and star bits. The Story starts with Princess Peach being Highjacked and Mario jumping on board for a ...
...meet Mama and the stars which are made up as star bits. Unfortunately their space ship is short of power and it is your job to collect star bits and eventually gain a power stars to give the ship more power. Each area has different planets, which have different challenges. From Bee Mario, Rainbow Mario and Ghost Mario and more makes this an evolving game and challenges you to the end... without giving anything away, make sure that you do not switch ...
