 Basically paying $10 more for a wii remote February 15, 2007
1 out of 6 found this review helpful
If you really need a wii remote and can't find one then this is the game to buy. Overall this game is horrendous and shouldn't even have been released. I was hoping this would be similiar to Wii Sports but it makes Wii Sports look like the greatest game ever made. Save your $50 and wait for a $40 wiimote, people will be giving away this game free soon.
 Worth the $10 February 15, 2007

Like people are saying, Wii Play is worth the $50 for the game AND the remote, when a remote costs you $40 by itself. Also, remotes are still pretty hard to come by.
If you think of this game as a demo. game or as a game you would pay $10 for, then you won't be disappointed. If you think of it as a regular video game for $50 or on par with Zelda, you will be disappointed.
My wife picked this game up at Target on Tuesday right when it came out. We like it a lot, although it leaves a fair amount to be desired when compared to Wii Sports.
Only 1-2 people can play at a time, not the 4 like can play in Wii Sports. The games are like mini games, some of which are very addicting. I personally like the Pick Mii game where you try to match Mii's or find unique Mii's on the screen amongst several dozen other Mii's, within a time limit.
As other people have said, Ping Pong is not nearly as complex as tennis, but it's pretty fun nonetheless.
Mii Pose is pretty dumb.
I was confused by the Pool game. I thought it would be like a regular game of pool, but it is a little weird. I don't care much for Pool.
The other games are pretty cool.
It's worth the $10 extra for the game as something you can play with someone else or by yourself to kill time for fun. However, don't buy this game thinking it's something complex or very involving. It is more of a demo. of what the wiimote can do.
Still, I think it's worth owning as a new Wii owner.
What a complete waste of money!!! February 14, 2007

Ok, I was probably just as excited about this game as everyone else. I was expecting this to be just as cool as Wii Sports. I pre-ordered this item and got it yesterday evening. I put it in and could not believe how bad this game was. You have to unlock the games one by one so you have to play a cheesy bad game just to get to another cheesy bad game. The only game remotely fun on it is the 9-ball pool. Everything else was really bad. If it wasn't for the Wiimote and the 9-ball pool this game would be returned. In my opinion, save your money! Wii Play = Wii Nay
Lame game, nice remote! February 14, 2007

Wii Play is too little too late from Nintendo. This game needed to be released at launch. With games like Wario Ware: Smooth Moves and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (both of which take great advantage of the Wii Remote), this game comes off as too simple and just not as innovative as Nintendo boasts.
Like it's cousin, Wii Sports, Wii Play is nothing more than a small demo of the Wiii's capability. Shooting Range is an ok game with an amusing allusion to Duck Hunt (kinda wish it WAS an updated Duck Hunt), but it's too short. Billiards is way too clumsy and tedious. The ping-pong game is just horrendous! Stick with Wii Sports: Tennis. Pose Mii is completely ridiculous. The only good games are Laser Hockey and Tanks. Those are the only two I can see myself playing over and over. Also, the graphics on this game aren't bad.
The only saving grace of this package is the bundled Wii Remote. Since they're still hard to find, it's comforting to know that at least you get a game. I have to remind myself that I'm really paying $10 and not $50 for Wii Play.
 Fun game! February 14, 2007

I picked this up at Target today cause of the free Wiimote, but actually this game is a lot more than just that free Wiimote. This is a great game with more people because competition over silly mini games is really fun! I'm inviting my friends over again to play this.
