Summary: Biggest Waste of Money - and a money trap
Comment: First let me say, do not waste your money. If you buy this you are paying $200 to have an ugly piece
of white plastic sit unused on your entertainment center.

It should be obvious that it
is a terrible system when the best game (Wii Sports) comes with the system. It is the best game (at
1 star in my opinion) and sadly it loses it appeal after about an hour. What really saddens me is
that when you get the Wii and spend all this time on a Mii you find out later it is basically usless
in all other games.

It is a money trap:
There are so many peripherials it is
ridiculous and somehow Nintendo manages to make so that we almost have to buy these at extra cost
just to make the gameplay somewhat enjoyable.

You got Mario Kart and want to play, you
have to get a wheel to go around the controller.
You want to play golf? You are conned into
buying a attachment that makes your controller more "accurate"

Which is funny because
in most games you can try to play it and be all serious and use strategy, all th while your 6 year
old nephew is waving his arms randomly like he forgot his ritilan and he still beats me in games. I
began to discover that the games really arn't calibrated for strategy but really just for movement.
In most game you can move your arms aimlessy and with no direction and the results would be the same
as if you actually tried. SO what fun is that? I want challange and skill to play a factor. What is
the point if the effort you put in does not have any effect on your gameplay. It really is a
cheat.
The graphics are not much better than the PS2, well worse actually, and the gameplay is
worse. What really angered me was the controller. At first it is fun waving your arms around like an
idiot but after a while you just wants to sit down and play a video game. But it is impossible to
play sitting down. SO when I am feeling lazy the Wii is not an option. And for those of you that
think the Wii Fit will make you skinny.... Read the Game Informer review online. They did a study
and found out the Wii Fit is nothing more than a glorified way to spend a bunch of money and get
nothing in return. The whole set up of the game prevents you from building up your heart rate due to
having to selct a different excercise from the menu everytime. What they discovered is people do not
get healty playing Wii fit. All they are doing is playing a game in which they are standing up and
leaning over every know and then.

The games, oh the games. I love games but when I go
to shop for a Wii game I can not find a single one that is worth anything. I have bought a few and
they are all lame, even Mario Kart Wii. The games seem as if they were made by 11 year olds.
Seriously, if you consider yourself a gamer think of the Wii as one of those electronic handheld
football games you see in the toy isle at Tiys R Us, the Wii is a lttle less fun then those. />
Even the games that are on other consoles that are on the Wii are terrible. Madden 10
looked like Tecmo Bowl fro NES and played worse. I had to do a milk the cow motion at a hundred
miles an hour just to do a running play. After a quarter I was sick of moving my arms and bored by
the terrible visuals.

I was so excited when I got this because I believed th hype. I
had it for six monthes and never bought a game because everyone I rented was boring. Even my little
brother was bored by all the games. It sat by my tv for six monthes and every now and then my
Girlfriend would say, "Want to Play the Wii?" and I would always think about it and become bored
just thinking about it. Overall we played it twice. After six monthes I took it to GameStop and they
gave my $60 for it. I paid $260.00 and I still though I was getting a good deal. If they solf he Wii
for 10 dollars I would still think Iwas getting ripped off.

I traded mine in for a PS3.
Best decison I ever made.

I beg of you. Do not make my mistake. Buy a different
console. Besides, in a few monthes all consoles will have movment controllers.

Summary: The Wii sports package
Comment: To put this in perspective I am 81. When I was first introduced to this game my thought was, this
is for children. When I started playing the tennis game I found I was getting an enjoyable aerobic
workout. I have since purchased my own Wii sports package game and have truly enjoyed the game and
the health benefits derived from it. I would highly recommend this for all ages. The only reason I
rated the game over all at 4 stars is that I wish they had made the game so it could be played one
on one as well as they have it now with two people on each side.
