Waste of money! [Posted on 2008-06-06]
Bought this game with my Wii 3 months ago have hardly played since. Just not a fun game in mmy opinion. I thought it would give my kids more exercise like Wii sports but it's just a lot of little repetitive motions.

Mario and Sonic for Wii [Posted on 2008-06-07]
This Wii game is a fun game for the whole family. It is an easy game to learn. I highly recommend it for 5-10 year olds since it is rated E (Everyone). The only complaint I have is the price. At $50 retail almost everywhere it is a little expensive especially when you buy a few games, and end up spending 200+.

If you like Mario and Sonic......... [Posted on 2008-06-10]
This is a pretty fun game. It has 20 + games and some more mini games. Very colorful to look at. Some games are harder than they should be but I suppose that is better than being too easy. We do wish they would have allowed you to choose difficulty levels. Most of the games require a good amount of fast movement with the controller(s), which we like. A child younger than, say, eight will probably get frustrated at times with what they have to do to win some events, and some may not be doable for them. No regrets buying this one........just so much to choose from!

Keeps up with WII Fun! [Posted on 2008-06-12]
Excellent game and makes use of WII capability very much. More games are enabled as you play more and start winning.

One of the tricks is to select the right kind of character depending on the game you are playing (skill, power or a combination of both etc...).

I haven't played all the games yet, but so far it is great.

This game takes more energy to complete each event than is necessary. The events are not very entertaining and the game overall is not worth purchasing.
