Game Summary:

Bundled with a Wii Remote, Wii Play offers a little something for everyone who enjoyed the pick-up-and-play gaming of Wii Sports. Whether you pick up the Wii Remote to play the shooting gallery that harkens back to the days of Duck Hunt or use it to find matching Miis, a world of fun is in your hands. In addition to the shooting gallery and Mii-matching game, Wii play offers billiards, air hockey, tank battles, table tennis rally, Mii poses and a cow-riding race.

Game Review:

Wii Play is a bundle comprised of 9 casual Mini-games and a Wii Remote Control. The Mini-games can be compared to those found in Wii-Sports, which comes standard with every Nintendo Wii. Wii Play features a good mix of small Puzzle, Action and Skill based games. Families will appreciate this variety, as it offers something for everyone. Unfortunately, Wii Play can only be played by 2 Players. We recommend Wii-Play to everyone who is looking for an additional controller: A single Wii-Remote Controller costs $39.99, Wii Play with Wii Remote costs $49.99. Means, for $10 more you get 9 fun Mini-games with a Wii-mote. Pretty much a no-brainer in our opinion.

Reviewer: V. Pampati

These are not probably the best of games you can get but since it is only $10 more its worth it.
