No matter what your gaming experience Nintendo has just the game for you to play with your friends and family. Wii Play consists of a selection of nine very different mini-games on...
more...one game, which are designed to help you master the unique Wii Remote, whilst also providing hours of entertainment. To ensure you can enjoy Wii Play with your friends, the game comes bundled with a free Wii Remote. Wii Play consists of a variety of quirky games that can be played either alone or with a friend. This includes Shooting Range, which is the first game unlocked and is reminiscent of the classic Duck Hunt (released on the NES). In order to unlock the next game the player simply needs to complete the previous one (this sequence continues throughout). When all of the games have been unlocked players can start earning medals for their performance. Wii Play takes simple concepts and demonstrates how much fun they can be by using the Wii\'s unique control mechanism. The Wii\'s unique Mii channel also allows players to build their own customised avatar that can then star as the central character in Wii Play and other games.

Play Together or Not at All
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by nathaninnit

Advantages: Free controller and some ok games
Disadvantages: Some games aren't so great and boring

...to purchase my first Nintendo Wii game since the launch of the console. As if it hasn't been hard enough to find the Wii console in stock, there's one game that has also alluded many customers due to the fact that it comes with a 'free' controller - and that game is none other than Wii Play. If you're looking for a game that's going to keep you busy for hours, and be a real joy to play, then you are wasting your time on Wii Play really. The selling ... Read review

Shall Wii Play?
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by Magrippinho

Advantages: Includes Wii Remote, 9 quick games
Disadvantages: Repetitive, Basic

...With that in mind, the Wii puts a lot of faith in the simple "party" games that take full advantage of the Wiimote and its unique features. Wii Sports already showed us how to get non-gamers frantically flailing their arms in front of a television and Wii Play follows in a similar vain, with a selection of 9 "instructional" games. It is a case of quantity versus quality, but as the deal is sweetened with the inclusion of a free Wii Remote, Wii Play ... Read review

I play, You play, Wii all play together
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by sit2020

Advantages: Family fun
Disadvantages: none

...new baby called the Nintendo Wii has taken the gaming world by storm; it is not its amazing graphics (they are not amazing, but they are adequate though) or some new super sound system. It is the game play and its new way of using controllers to enhance the game playing experience. Wii play I would say is a must have game. For a start it comes with a Wii remote controller (the wireless controller for the Wii) thus allowing two player games. ... Read review

9 Games, 3 Pounds, 1 Happy Mii.
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by Alfieabbott

Advantages: cheap as chips, some good games, good for beginners
Disadvantages: poor replay value

...have just brought a Nintendo wii you going to be looking pretty soon at getting some more games and especially getting an extra controller because let's face it wii sport just isn't the same without two people. That is the position that I found myself in and within a couple of days I was off down to the shops to try and get another control Wii remote. When I got to the shops after looking around I found that generally I could get a remote on its own ... Read review

Wii Play Once
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by mr_mlk

Advantages: Some fun minigames
Disadvantages: none are worth more than an hour of your time

...up to the computer (like Wii Sports), you only control the movement. And you only control the moment on a single plain. Or as it is commonly called: Pong. Controls: Rather than press the left and right buttons, you move the controller left and right. Much better than using a D Pad. Pose Mii -=-=-=-=- Game Play: Make you Mii strike the same pose as a silhouette bouncing about in a bubble, and move the Mii over the bubble. Sort-of almost fun. ... Read review

The rollercoaster goes up again
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by donf18

Advantages: Good clean fun
Disadvantages: none yet

After being slightly disappointed with Wii Wario Ware I was not holding my breath on being bowled over by Wii Play the other game set in the Wii catalogue. My son purchased this for £34.99 so if it was bad at least it wasn't my dosh that was going down the drain or worse still back to the Game shop for a trade in whereby I'd be quids out of pocket and only have a voucher for Game, which I'd be very unlikely ever to spend. The package comes with another ... Read review

Simple Games Can Be The Most Fun
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by lilmsnaughty1979

Advantages: Great fun for two players
Disadvantages: Not so good for single players

...enough to receive a Nintendo Wii for Christmas despite all of the shortages (and at the correct retail price). However a lot of the Wii games are much more fun and often designed with two or more players in mind. We all know that Wii Sports comes as a freebie and a very good one at that but the Tennis and Boxing are much more fun two player. So I decided that another controller would be practically essential. I had read that the game Wii Play comes ... Read review

Nine Wii games for £5.00
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by sandra102

Advantages: Cheap, fun, easy games
Disadvantages: The fun factor wears off

As we only got one wii mote with our wii and wanted to play against each other we needed to get another remote to go with the console. I looked around the internet and discovered I could get wii play which contained 9 mini games with a wii mote for about £5.00 more than a wii mote on its own. I checked out a few reviews for wii play and they mostly weren't exactly encouraging but I figured for a fiver it was worth a try. When it arrived we unpacked ... Read review

Playing is fun...
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by mrten_8

Advantages: Some fun minigames, 2 player, easy to pick up and play
Disadvantages: Too simple for Wiimote veterans, some poor minigames

...you will think about getting Wii Play - it comes with a Wiimote. It costs £5 more than a standalone Wiimote. It has 9 minigames. 50 pence (ish) per minigame? That doesn't sound too bad to me at all! Wii Play is not designed for the Wiimote veteran. It is, purely and simply, for the New Wii Owner, who's never used the Wiimote, and might even feel a little intimidated by it. The 9 games ease the user gently into different ways of using the Wiimote, ... Read review

Wii like it!!
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by mehmoou101

Advantages: multiplayer-quite cheap
Disadvantages: not enough games-only good with family and friends

When the Nintendo Wii first came out i wasn't as excited as everyone else about it and i thought it was going to be failure mainly because it was using different technology but boy was i wrong. I brought this for a measly £20.00 from my local game station and it proved to be a worthwhile purchase as i brought it a few months ago and i still enjoy it to this day. This game has 8 different games in to it and all of them are very enjoyable, but i ... Read review

A wii remote with great games
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by Lauren89

Advantages: some addictive fun games, you get the wii remote
Disadvantages: not a lot of replay value and can get boring

...few months after getting my Wii when I decided I wanted something similar to Wii sports (included with the Wii console), since I loved being able to use my own Miis - the little characters you create on the console - as playable characters. Wii play offers this with nine new mini games, plus a Wii remote included. Reviews I'd seen of this game before buying it didn't look good but since it came with the remote I thought it was worth buying anyway. This ... Read review

Review of Wii Play (Wii) by mcleism01

Advantages: free wiimote, good choice of minigames, mii support
Disadvantages: poor minigames. games lack depth

Wii Play is a series of unlockable minigames that are designed to help you use the wiimote. One of the attractions of the game to buyers is that it comes with a free wiimote. 1.Shooting.6/10 Shooting is the simplest of the minigames, shooting consists of five different stages, in stage one you have to shoot ballons before they float of the top of the screen. In stage two you have to shoot a series of moving targets, shooting golden targets wii ... Read review

Wii can all play together
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by jonny2483

Advantages: perfect introduction to using a wii remote, 9 games for a fiver
Disadvantages: packaged at 35 quid with controller, so overall its a bit expensive

...Nintendo released thier revoutionary new Wii console for just £180 it seemed like all my christams's had come at once. Here was an amazing new console with unique motion sensing controllers that could be purchased twice over for less than its main rivals the ps3 and xbox. The only slight concern I had was the rather high price of a second controller for £30 so when I saw the Wii play title for just a fiver more that came with a "free" controller it ... Read review

Variety is the spice of life.
Review of Wii Play (Wii) by oliridg

Advantages: fun, easy to get the hang of, good teaching tool for 1st time wii-ers, THE COW GAME
Disadvantages: You probably couldn't play if everyday without getting bored!

Wii play for most people comes for 35 pounds with a Wii remote which is a fantastic deal, for some reason and I think a huge mathematical error by the company I got Wii play, Wii sports, red steal, Zelda and 2 remotes (plus nunchucks) and the actual Wii for just over 250pounds! What a bargain! The game continues along the line of game, or rather starts it, that the Wii has become built for, party games with high levels of playability and enjoyment ... Read review
