4 Stars good if you like one piece
great game, very entertaining and funny but if your not a one piece fan its probably not the game for you.

5 Stars One Piece
This game is really amazing… In fact as a game it’s not really a phenomenon, but the “adventure”, I mean the universe is so magic, so wonderful, that the “defaults” of the game desappear…Of course it’s a personnal opinion, and some people can thing this game isn’t really good, but it must be considered as a long (about 80 hours to complete 100%… but I’m not really gifted ) adventure game. And they are so rare on Wii… It gives a real impression of liberty. In conlusion, I really like this one piece, and I think it’s a great homage to Oda’s work, but it’s up to each gamer…

PS : Sorry for all the mistakes I’ve made…

5 Stars A really decent One Piece video game.
I was so excited when I heard that One Piece: Unlimited Adventure was coming to US soil. The areas did require a lot of backtracking to make items and some were needed to get to the bosses. The bosses presented a good challenge, especially Whitebeard. Requirements for 100% are a pain to complete and after you get 100% the only thing you can really do is max out their HP and SP. A good One Piece game and kudos to the FUNi VA’s for their voices. Too bad the sequel may never come to the US. I’ve played it and it is so cool.

4 Stars you’d think you’re watching the anime
Here’s my eval:

Pros+

-voice acting is great

-large character roster

-versus mode allows you to play w/villians

-great presentation (there are various sceneries, well-executed moments, awesome character interaction, flashbacks from the anime, and tons of special moves taken from the show)

-makes decent use of the nunchaku

Cons-

-no awesome opening/closing theme music included. Just your standard, mediocre video game music.

-tons of backtracking

-gameplay is nothing special

-no next-gen graphics (the standard for all wii games)

-targeting your opponents is a tad bit annoying (the other control settings are solid)

You’ll enjoy this game if you’re already familiar w/the characters. I gave it a four because I really like the characters.

4 Stars Here is what an anime game should be like.
I hate when people come out with an anime game and it is like good job you’ve just been given shovel ware. One Piece Unlimited adventure breaks threw that and keeps going. First off this game is really a lot of fun. You heard me right it’s fun. Which is something to say in it’s self. The story is rich and very funny. Your characters are all really easy to control and Zoro may stand out as the strongest there is none that are really “broken” and none that feels like a waste of space. Also there is a lot to get and collect including new costumes. The fighting side game is fun but I’m not going to lush over the mulitplayer even though it is fun but it is not really the main stage. The game looks beautiful (especially Nami and Robin ). If your a One Piece fan, this game is a must. If you are not I’d still say buy it. It might just bring you to the one piece side.

5 Stars Good game!
I love this game I got it only today and I played it twice already.This original game is much better than the new Kung Fu Panda game!

1 Star V King
This order from your international site was a waste of time as it is not compatible with UK Wii, no where on the item description did it inform customers of this

4 Stars Fun Adventure Game for Kids
On almost all of my wii posts I say the same thing. If you want graphics you need to buy an X-box 360. Nintendo wii market is not for those looking for HD graphics that make you think you are in the virutal world. With that said, this game is a lot of fun. My youngest son (age 5)plays it and likes that it is an ongoing adventure. You navigate your way through the set to reach various levels by fighting, eating, and running around. Loads of fun, even for me at thirtysomething.

2 Stars This is a do not buy Item
This game is glitchy, the controls are bad, ther screen looks pretty bad, you can’t skip the parts when the characters are talking so you can get to the actual game and then you have to wait for to load. This is a badly made game don’t buy this for anyone even for kids. There far better games out there then this one, As a rule never buy a game that is base on a movie most about 95% of them are going to be very bad, why do I have it, well let me tell you I have cause I have a wallpaper with Poe in it, so someone thought that I would like the game and I got as a christmas gift. even worst then the ipod shuffle.

1 Star Kung Fu Panda Lost
I order this Kung Fu Panda for my grandson’s birthday and he never got it. I was told I would have to wait because it may have got routed incorrectly. Poor customer service from the company. Amazon however got me the refund.

3 Stars Perks and disappointments for Catz 2
I’m an 11 yr old boy who helps my little 7 yr old sister w/ this game. It is a little creepy, though. There are a few parts that I wouldn’t recommend for young children. For instance, one day while playing the game, I was rounding the corner and got the heck scared out of me when I saw a grizzly bear charging at me. Another instance was when I was up in the mountains on some sort of mission. Suddenly I found myself surrounded by about 10 poisonous snakes. I barely managed to make it out of there in one piece.

There are some perks to this game, though. For instance, you can customize your cat’s appearance with different clothes. Here are a few different, fun costume combinations. Use the brown denim jacket and brown ten-gallon hat and your cat can look like Indiana Jones. Or make your cat look like a Coast Guard officer by using the white lifejacket, white sheriff’s hat, and white flight goggles. You can also make your cat look like royalty by choosing the red leather jacket and the crown.

I hope this has helped you.

4 Stars Pets Catz 2
This was a fun game, but I didn’t like some of the controls on the Wii. It was hard to navigate around in some parts of the game. My kids love the game alot.

3 Stars Not what it claims to be…but somewhat entertaining anyways.
I asked for this game for Christmas thinking I was going to be taking care of a cat, and was very disappointed when I found out that it was a cat adventure game. The product box was extremely misleading, and the DS version of Catz is not even close to the same game; it is more in line with what I was looking for.

Having said that, it was somewhat fun. I liked that it was easy enough that even someone who is horrible at playing most action video games(me)could get all the way to the end without cheat codes. I also liked that I didn’t have to remember long strings of buttons to push in order, or have to push many buttons at the same time, because I do a lot better with games that don’t require either of those things. I liked that it explained in detail how to do things and that if I forgot what I was supposed to do or forgot how to do something I could look in the menu.

I liked that I could dress up my cat; that there were so many different kinds of cats to choose from; the warp feature(otherwise the game would have taken three times as long); and that it asked me to save, and also gave me money, after every quest.

On the other hand, I wish that there was something else to do with it after you get all the way through it, and I wish there weren’t so many dialogue movies to read.

I will be reselling it and buying either “The Sims 2: Pets” or “Purr Pals” because I have beaten this game, and they are more in line with what I was looking for originally.

All in all, it wasn’t a bad game; I would recommend this game to someone who likes cats, can read, and isn’t good at heavily action oriented video games like Mortal Kombat or wrestling. Just don’t expect it to be a pet care game, because it isn’t one.

2 Stars Pointless
My kids don’t get this game and frankly neither do I. Aside from choosing the type of kitten they’d like to be there isn’t any real fun to be had here. Ages 7 and 5, both were quickly bored. We are not experienced gamers but this one was a dud.

1 Star Misleading Packaging – Frightening & Violent
The packaging makes this sound like a Wii version of Webkinz — very sweet and adorable — but in fact, it’s really only appropriate for much older kids (at least middle school) who like scary, adrenaline-pumping material. The packaging is completely misleading. While there are some fun aspects in the earlier segments of the game, it contains very intense, threatening, and terrifying storylines and challenges that are completely inappropriate for children seeking a cute, adorable game with cats. Getting poisoned, attacked by viscious snakes, bats, and wild animals, and facing a horrible-looking dragon and evil wolf who have the power to destroy and end the cat world and universe are not the stuff that children looking for adorable games dressing cats are seeking. This game provides a lot of fodder for nightmares for the kinds of children the marketing targets. Thumbs down to the manufacturer and their PR department for taking advantage of young children and their parents!!! As my daughter said, “They were just trying to steal our money and didn’t care if they scared lots of kids!”

5 Stars Great game for kids
my kids are 9 7 5 all girls and the love this game could play it all day long the only thing the do no like this that it is only one player other than that the love it

5 Stars billy and mandy
Billy and Mandy prove to be quite fun for children. The graphics are quite good. I find the game fast paced and hard to follow but the kids love it! It has some qualities that remind one of days gone by with atari and nintendo at their earliest.

5 Stars DEATHMATCH !!! (pun intended)
It’s the hit show on Cartoon Network like you’ve never seen – or played – before !

The “Billy and Mandy” video game may look like your garden variety multiplayer combat game with weapons and destructible environments, but this has some of your favorite characters from the show such as the hapless Irwin, the chaotic Eris, the sinister Nergal and Nergal Jr., the prank-pulling Jack O. Lantern, the annoying Fred Fredburger, and much more. Each character has a special power move and alternate costumes that you can unlock. There are various modes of play including a “Mission Mode” that unlocks characters and other neat extras like a sneak peek at a brand new “Grim Adventures” special coming soon ! Plus the Wii exclusively has a SIXTH tier of missions that unlock even more cool stuff !

So if you like “The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy” on Cartoon Network, and if you like no-holds-barred fighting games, then this is definitely the game for you. You know you want it !

4 Stars THE FIRST GAME
WHILE FANS HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A BILLY AND MANDY GAME FOR YEARS,THE SHOW DOES IT AT LAST WITH OVER 15 CHARACTERS! THE WHOLE CAST IS READY TO FIGHT OVER GRIMS MOJO BALLS.BUT,WHO RELEASED THEM AND STARTED THE MADNESS? BATTLE A FRIEND WITH ALL YOU GOT IN V.S.,AND KILL EVERYONE! THE FUN WILL NEVER END.

4 Stars Brake your self…or at least others
Brake your self…or at least others.

The game is in the vein of the show so if you like the destruction and absurdity of the show you’ll enjoy the game. This is a button masher game, but it does have a little skill requirement as it uses just about every part of the wii remote. Worth it for anyone who wants a party beat ‘m up game. A little boring in single mode. It’s a battle game threw-n-threw.

1 Star DO NOT BUY THIS “GAME”
I bought this game for my brother, 12 years old, and it SUCKS! It takes forever to actually get into the games and the games are these tedious challenges you have to get through in order to get to more “fun” or interesting rides. Seriously, we spent hours trying to figure out how to even play the damn thing. I watched him get frustrated, discouraged, and even bored at points as we tried to figure out how to “unlock” other aspects. Then when you do, the other games are super dull and irritating too.

Also lame, is that there are all of these “rides” included that simply don’t work! You click on it and it says “closed” or under construction. There are a lot more fun and exciting game choices for the Wii.

Seriously, learn from my mistake, DO NOT BUY THIS “GAME”!

5 Stars Goosebumps at its best
Goosebumps Horrorland is a very fun game even for adults. There are a bunch of different worlds you can unlock and you actually get to walk around and interact with the people. There are several different mini games within this game and a lot of them are challenging. You earn tokens and scare meters to unlock different mini games throughout each world. You get to collect and buy monster cards throughout the game. This is not like any other “mini game” game that I have played before. The graphics are awesome and you really feel like you are in the horrorland world. This is actually a game with a storyline.

I recommend this game to anyone who like simple but fun games. I am an adult and I love this game.

4 Stars Fun and entertaining
Although this game did not get a great review, it has been a major hit for the child I purchased it for. He plays it as much as he can and loves it! I would recommend it for any child that loves the Goosebumps series.

4 Stars Fun!
My son got this game for Christmas! He loves it so much! He is pretty much addicted to it and have neglected his other games since receiving this one.

4 Stars Goosebumps Wii game
We bought this for our granddaughter for one of her Christmas gifts. She had much fun playing with it. She rates it the best!
