Wii Play with Wii Remote

We bought our Wii with Wii Sports Resort, and just got Wii Play. Wii Play isnt nearly as fun. The games are OK. My 10 yr old niece likes to play this game more than my husband and I do. Im still happy I bought it just because it came with an extra remote. Wii Play has a nice variety of games... but I really only like two of them. With all the other games we have that I think are fantastic, I dont think well be using this one very often.

Cute games, always need extra remotes. Wouldnt say I was overly attached to any games like they were amazing but they were cute and something to occupy time and attention for a while.

This game was a tech demo disguised as a game, and we all knew that. Most triple-A titles dont come bundled with a controller for only $10 more than said controller, after all. But its a great time nonetheless; I cant count how many games of Billiards Ive played with my Grandfather, and Ive reached Level 100 in Tanks! Pick it up if you wanna play some simple, entertaining minigames.

Well since christmas of this year, I have went to multiple stores, online and all, and could not find a wii remote, the only ones ive seen are the generic colored ones. Call me crazy but I like my things to match and the name brands. But everyone was out of them, the only way to get one was to order this game. With that being said, the game itself is a little cheesy for an adult, but great for small kids. My 2 favorite games on here is the cow race, and the hunting game, its similar to the old duck hunt on NES. Ping Pongs not bad, but I had the worst time trying to figure out how to maneuver my wiimote to play the 9-ball pool. If your buying this just for the wiimote, then great, but I wouldnt suggest paying more than 10 bucks for the game itself.

As pointed out in most reviews, the Wii Play Games arent very good. Theyre basically games to teach you how to use the remote. I dont find them as awful as some people, but they probably should have been included with the Wii console. Theyre basic but playable. I didnt buy the Wii Play for the games though. I bought it for the 2nd controller. At its current $45 price, it only costs $5 more than buying the controller alone. In my opinion, its worth spending an extra $5 to get the 9 games. These games are also available without the remote for around $37. It would be insanity to purchase them without it.

Buy this game if you need another remote. In fact, you should not buy a remote on its own if you could get a deal on this game. The game is obviously a $10 quality game, but its well-made nonetheless. The simplicity of the game would attract the newbiest of the gamers as there is almost no learning curve to overcome just to be sufficiently able to have fun. The laser hockey is definitely a multiplayer favorite as it provides endless addiction of trying to get back with each other as you beat them and they beat you back and forth. The billiard is also very nice as it translates your thrusting motion to the power of your billiard stick. The shooting game reminisces of the very old NES duck shooting game, I wish they would just had that whole duck game in there as the version here is way too short. This game quickly replaced our wii sports resort as our multiplayer game of choice that provides simple fun rather than competing in sophistication of wiimoting techniques. However, like the other reviewer said this game is mainly sold for the wiimote, and the games are just slightly more than a demo-like that will last you an hour or two before you get really bored, or hooked, depending who you play with.

BEST game to start off with. First you get the 2nd controller that really is necessary for more then 2 people. THEN you get this fantastic collection of games that teach you how to use your remotes in different ways. Master this and you are ready for the any of the other games, and they come to you easier in the controlling aspect because of this. Bought another copy for a friend that jsut got a Wii too. Would buy another one for next friend that gets Wii as well.

I just got a Nintendo Wii that came with Wii Sports and needed another remote so I got this bundled product. I did some research before buying it and I found that in Japan it is actually called Introduction to Wii in Japan ([...], scroll down to the part where the interview is asking why they used the word training for Links Crossbow) so I knew exactly the quality of the game I was getting. This, I think, made it more fun because I wasnt expecting some wondrous game. I take it for what its worth and its a bunch of little games to show you how to use the remote. Thats it plain and simple. Most are pretty fun too!

We got the Wii Play for our 6 yr. old sons birthday. We also wanted a 2nd remote so this worked well. The kids have fun with all the games. For an adult, they arent as exciting as other Wii games but still fun. My favorites are the cow racing, the shooting range, laser hockey and fishing. Our least favorites are finding Mii and pose Mii. I like that these dont take as much time. Theyre great when you have just a little time to play and you dont want anything too intense. Overall a lot of fun!

I bought this product mainly for the Wii remote. I had seen reviews on Amazon for just the remote, and some people said they got knock-offs. I figured with Wii Play, the remote had to be genuine. And at this price, it is like getting the game for free. Now for the games - a few of them are fun. Were new at Wii, and we have three kids, two of them just under 5. They love the shooting gallery and the Find Mii games, and can play them with a little help. The other games are okay; our 9 year old seems to enjoy them.
