Favorable Review

Our entire family loves this game!

MAY

2008

This game was soooo worth the money! Our entire family gets together and has competitions with this game. Our favorite game is Tennis, but we also enjoy Baseball and golf. It is PERFECT because everyone can play at the same time and we're up and moving around the living room… read full review »

Wii are not impressed.

JUN

2008

We bought Wii Play because we were looking for new, multiplayer games that my husband and I could enjoy together. We shelled out $49.99 plus tax at Target for just this disc of 9 games. Yes, we are suckers. — — Wii Play is a collection of short games that can be played with 1 or 2… read full review »

Worth the money for the remote.

I am in love with my Nintendo Wii. The very first game that we purchased for our Nintendo Wii was the Wii Play. Wii play is a $49.99 game, which is the most expensive pricepoint for any Wii game. With that being said, the actual game is not worth it. But, with Wii Play you get a Wii Remote. The Wii Remote in itself is worth $39.99. So basically the game is only $9.99. — If you are truly only paying $10 for the video game, then it is worth it. There are like 10 different minigames on it. My personal… read full review »

Wii Play is awesome.....for my 4 year old!

Wii Play — by — Nintendo Wii — — What is it? — Wii Play is a game for the Nintendo Wii that also comes with a remote. What makes this game so popular is that is just about the same price as a remote by itself. So many people purchase it for the remote and the game as a bonus. — Wii Play has many different types of games for 1-2 players. — Games Include: Laser Hockey, Tanks, Charge (Cow Racing), Shooting Range, Table Tennis, Fishing, Billiards, Find Mii, Pose Mii. — My Viewpoint! — I'm not gonna lie. I basically… read full review »

this game is good if your entertaining guests but not much fun for the regular gamer. — it gets boring really fast. you dont get to beat any levels, you pretty much just play for high scores and bragging rights. — you will lose all interest in these games very quickly. one good note, you do get quite a bit of exercise playing them. i believe these games are really designed to get you familiar with all the Wii remote controls. — … read full review »

this game is o.k but the games are very short.it should have more levels or something ,but it did fit the bill when we had a house of kids over for the day they ranged in age from 5 to 17 plus all us adult type people so the short games made it easy for ever one to take turns and some of the games are very simple so every one has a fair… read full review »

Wiimote + Games + Reasonable Price = FUN!

a techie, Every day computer user, an early adopter

APR

2008

A Wii comes with 1 Wiimote and 1 Nunchuck, but 2 of each are really needed to truly enjoy the Wii. There are basically two ways to get another Wiimote, buy one for $39.99 or buy Wii Play for $29.99 that has 6 games and a Wiimote. Therefore, I got Wii Play to get a second Wiimote for my system and then purchased 2 additional Wiimotes and another Nunchuck separately. Here are my thoughts on the Wii Play games: —… read full review »

On a whim, I bought a Nintendo wii. I am 33yo and we don't have any kids. I just wanted one for myself. It has turned out to be great fun. It's a good way to de-stress when I come home from work at the end of the day. I'm certainly not big into video games, and I'm not very good at them either, but I'm having a lot of fun. We bought Wii play mostly because we wanted another controller, but I've found that I really like the games on it. They're very simple - nothing too complicated at all - so they involve basically no brain power. But they're… read full review »

Not as fun as Sports

Nintendo Wii owner, Likes to be entertained

NOV

2007

Okay, when I first got this, I had hopes that it would be as entertaining as Wii Sports. It is not. But, when you pay $40 for a wii-mote and this game comes with a remote for $50, its well worth it and understandable why this is one of the highest selling games for wii. That being said, its not as fun as sports. There is no real reason to play this when you could be golfing or bowling. The fishing is terrible. Air hockey is okay, but not much to it, just an advanced Pong if you will. The shooting game is alright, I'm interested to see if its better… read full review »

Worth the extra $10

Nintendo Wii owner, Likes to be entertained, Open-minded, a fan of easy video games

DEC

2007

If you are getting a second wii remote (which you will want to at least have two to utilize this system) then wii play is a great value. The remote itself costs $40 bucks so for an extra $10 this just makes sense. The games aren't going to be top notch and yes I wish for a lot more flexibility but for that price it fun. These games are good for when you are tired of being on your feet playing wii sports and want to play a game but not get into a long fantasy style game. My favorite was the "duck hunt" style game where in one level you have to rescue your wii from abduction. Cute and… read full review »

Fun Fix for the Wii

MAR

The Wii Play is fun for a fast fix to play some games but very addicting, the games are short and always looking for ways to improve your score. The more you try to beat your personal best it adds more challenging. — — I find myself frustrating realiziing how bad my hand eye coordination really is. The fish game, army tanks and ping pong I am horrendous and luck lucky to get past at least one. — — I think this game should be including with the Wii along with the Wii sports. — — if you are definitely looking for a quick fix but yet addicting game,… read full review »

Great party game!

A good combination of games for those that got sick of the annoying sounds from Mario Party 8. — My favorite game is the tank shooting one. This game can be frustrating, but at the same time, it is addicting. It is an old school type of game. I played this for on the Atari way back when I was a kid. — The second best game is the pool game. At the time when this game was released, this was the only pool game, and it was and still is really good. — The memory game is also great for players of all ages. —… read full review »

Not your typical "gamers" game

As a mother of five--four boys and a girl--I bought this game with a family game night in mind and it delivered! There is something for everyone, from fishing to tank shooting, pool to cow riding! The games are short enough that everyone gets a turn without taking a long time, and there's a nice variety of games on the disk. It also comes with a controller, which is a plus! No it's not your typical gamer's game, but if you're looking for something everyone can play, this is a great… read full review »

Got this in accord with the nintendo wii. Thought it was a good buy considering you get the controller with it. — The games are a lot of fun. My family has had a good time with it including the cow racing game, — Not the most difficult of games to master but still worthwhile to play if your looking to have fun with your family. — You get the controller for the cost plus the added game, hey who could ask for more? —… read full review »

Good SHORT games!

NOV

This game is great for parties or when my attention span seems to be very short. I like that I can play for a few minutes or half an hour instead of sitting in front of the wii all day. I highly recommend this game, as well as wii sports, and carnival games for parties. I'm in my 20s and my friends and I all have wii parties to spice things up. We've found shorter games to be better so more people can take… read full review »
