Wii Play with Wii Remote
By blegs1992 onI was hoping that Wii Play would be just as great as Wii Sports.Upon first glance, I noticed that a Wii Remote was bundled with the software.But wait!A Wii Remote costs a whopping $40 at WalMart.So, does that mean that Wii Play is actually bundled with the Wii Remote.I immediately asked myself, "Should I buy this?Or should I just buy the Wii Remote and buy 10 Chicken McNuggets at McDonald's?" since the software appeared to be worth only $10.There are 9 mini-games to play in this game:Shooting, Find Mii, Pose Mii, Laser Hockey, Billiards, Fishing, Table Tennis, Cow Riding (Charge!), and Combat (Tanks!).I must say that "Shooting", "Billiards", and "Combat" were the games that I had the most fun playing.Billiards was clearly the best, it had the most depth.Sadly, the game lacked some sparkle that Wii Sports had.For one, you could only have 2 players for all the games.Shooting, Find Mii, and Fishing were all games that could have been so much more fun than there was.Wii Sports had a few games in which you could have four players, and that is what made that a party game, not a sports game.Wii Play should thrive on letting the player play with the whole family, and it didn't make it so you could do that.However, these are incredibly high standards for a $10 game, and it is definitely better than some of the Virtual Console and Wii Ware titles that are worth 1000 Points or more.Great value for a little game, and that's why it gets a 5 for content.
