Pros: Addictive

Cons: Addictive

The Bottom Line: Buy it - it's fun

Review: ~~**~~ Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games ~~** Bicep strain - not normally a condition I'd encourage, but for the sake of entertainment, it's a necessary bi-product. Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games (or M&S as I shall refer to it) has enthralled me ...

Pros: Uses all aspects of Wii remote, lots of different events

Cons: You get tired easily and your arms ache the next day!!!!!!!

The Bottom Line: 10/10 Seriously brilliant game

The Bottom Line: A good buy for it's ease of use, price and features. Recommended.

Review: When I first looked into the DSC-W55, I was hoping to find a small digital camera, at an affordable price, that would take movies with sound. I am very glad to have chosen this one. The picture clarity and depth of field are very good. For such a small ...

Pros: More exercise than we usually get.

Cons: Kids and guests may not like the game.

The Bottom Line: This is a fun multi-player game. Player must be willing to repeat the same tasks over and over.

Review: This game was pretty far down on my wish list, however we came across a used copy in the game store. There were several reasons why I wanted this game. One of the reasons we chose this game was to have a party game for guests. We do have Mario ...

Pros: Extensive playing time, variety of games and skills used, family friendly, multiplayer

Cons: No provision for left handers, incomplete/confusing instructions

The Bottom Line: Despite its idiosyncrasies, this is an excellent game for individual and group play across the age spectrum.

Review: We are a two adult, no children household. We look for Wii games that are suitable for many players (we like to have friends over to play), and that are very engaging, and fun. We don't like war/shooter games or games that are too juvenile. We also try ...

Pros: Variety of Events, Many Characters, Active Gameplay

Cons: Some events are too easy while others are highly difficult

The Bottom Line: This is an exciting game that will get your arms moving and your blood pumping. Play it with a friend and go for the gold.

Review: I consider myself to be in good shape. After all, I compete in Triathlons. And I'm an avid video game player. These two things combined seemed to make Wii Olympics my kind of game. And right I was. My friend and I rented this and played it ...

Pros: Lots of variety. Fun for whole family, challenging.

Cons: No "ramp up", force of remote action too dictating in some events.

The Bottom Line: Lots of variety, very challenging, up to 4 people can "compete" in most of the events using 1 remote. Fun for all ages.

Review: There are more than 20 different events to compete in, and most events are turn-based (up to 4 people can play, using one remote). The player you choose to be also greatly effects the play--some are more skilled, some have greater power, etc., but it's ...

Pros: gives you a word out

Cons: lefties have work at it a little more

The Bottom Line: I would try borrowing it or renting it before you bought, just to make sure you and your family like it.

Review: Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games is a game based on Olympic games. You can compete in sports such Swimming, Track and Field, Archery, Shooting, Rowing, Fencing and so on. It requires a nunchuk and a remote. Santa brought this to us for Christmas. ...

Pros: This game is highly addictive, a lot of things to play and levels to upen.

Cons: Repetative motions are hard on the wrists.

The Bottom Line: I deffinately recommend this game. Even if you have weak wrists you can find something to enjoy. GO FOR IT! VERY FUN!

Review: I have tendonitis and carpal tunnel. This is NOT a game for me! I love the game and have had hours of fun on the trampoline, fencing and some of the dream games. However, I have a very hard time with rowing, running or any of the games that you have to ...
