Wii Play (Wii)

I bought this game a 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 game was released in Europe on the 8th of December 2006. It comes packaged in the usual disc case that all the Wii games are packaged in but with an extra box around it to hold the Wii ...  Read the complete review

The only real reason i bought this is due to the fact that it comes with a free Wii controller, and that is still he only reason i bought it. Wii play is barely worth the box that it came in. The games are primarily aimed at getting you used to how the Wii control works and it accomplishes this goal, but nothing more. he games are not very fun to play, and you will get bored of them very quickly: Shooting range: 6/10. This is one of the better, more challenging games on Wii play. You fing yourself shooting targets in a frantic manner whilst trying to obtain a hi score. Both one and two player this game is alright but the novelty wares off after a little ...  Read the complete review

I was lucky 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 with a bundled controller. It costs about £5 more than just the controller so I thought that for the difference I might as well get it. The ...  Read the complete review

WiiPlay is a simple but effective title that demonstrates the basic functions of the innovative Wii controller through a series of simple, enjoyable games. Players can choose to play from a range of games including a Shooting Gallery, Table Tennis, Billiards and 'Laser Hockey'. These games are a good, fun introduction to the way in which the Wii controller can be used (usually be replicating the object used in the game: eg, in 'Billiards' the Wii controller becomes a billiard cue, in 'Table Tennis' a ping pong bat etc.). There are also slightly different games, such as a game in which users are required to perform a variety of tasks such as 'spotting the odd ...  Read the complete review

This game comes with a Wii contoller and this is the only thing that the game has going for it, but then i did not expect that much for around a fiver. It retails for around 40 pounds and that is for the wii remote and the game where as the remote on its own retails at 33 pounds so there really is not that much difference and you get a game with it as well. You have 9 games on Wii play which vary from Tanks, Laser Hockey, Table Tennis, Shooting Range, Billiards and Fishing these can be single or two player. This game is great for the kids and it would keep them entertained for hours and all the games are simple to play and the remote is easy to use, ...  Read the complete review
