3 Stars It’s OK
This game is okay; however, the movements are not like playing real basketball. Often, when we try to pass, it doesn’t work the first time…or the second. If you have young children and they are playing a one person game (against the game) the game will always win. It can be very frustrating. My son is five and he likes to play it once in awhile because he loves basketball in any form.

3 Stars I wouldn’t recommend this for a young kid
It is a little hard to remeber what button does what. In order to know how to do different shots or plays you have to look in the book. I think it could be fun after figuring out the different buttons. My 11 yr old daughter says it’s too hard.

5 Stars Great video for kids…my grandson’s love it!!
Terrific video for kids to play…they even learn how to

really play the game…

4 Stars Good game you will get a workout
This is a good game you will work your arms in some of the events. Most of the events are really fun and a good workout. One player and two player modes are really good. Learning how to do some events can be tough.Creating a person that looks like you is tough. Some of the motions don’t match the events but most of this game is really good.

3 Stars Unless your a gamer
Unless your really into video games, you’ll find this pretty hard to play. The graphics are great but it throws you into 3-D mode in the middle of your play. Definately for a more experienced player than me.

Wii sports and Wii games is a lot more user friendly and very fun.

5 Stars Love this game
Personally, I love any game that involves competition and medal/award winning. There are so many events in this game and each competition is pretty unique. There is also the ability to create a custom competition and compete in only the events you choose. This game (at least for me) is not one that you master on the first time you play it. It takes practice. You are able to play alone against NPCs or with up to 4 people. It is a great workout for the arms and shoulders. I really enjoy it.

4 Stars Great work out for the arms!
This game uses nunchucks and you are constantly working out those arms! I’m still trying to get used to the swimming and diving part as well cycling but let me tell you, you will be tired but in a fun way! Great game if you are challenging someone to a race. Great buy!

3 Stars A workout for sure!
This game will definitely get all your muscles working! Exactly how I thought the running events would be (drumming the nunchuck and the controller). Same for the throwing events, though it does take some time to get the timing down. The archery is pretty cool. Personally I think the diving is the hardest thing to master. First time is a little muddled to figure out how to do split screen, create your own player ect (but then again I never read the book, I just fire it up!)

A good game if you are trapped inside with some friends for a friendly competition!

Wii Sports

Bundled with Wii, Wii Sports introduces a whole new way to play your game. This is what video games should be: fun for everyone. Wii Sports offers five distinct sports experiences, each using the Wii Remote controller to provide a natural, intuitive and realistic feel. To play a Wii Sports game, all you need to do is pick up a controller and get ready for the pitch, serve or that right hook. If you’ve played any of these sports before, you’re ready for fun!

Play Tennis, Baseball, Golf, Bowling and Boxing in the comfort of one’s living room. No ball boys scurrying about, no oil from the alleys to get players dirty and no rain to keep anyone from a day at the court, park or course. Use the Wii Remote controller to mimic the actions of swinging a racket, bat or club, roll a ball down an alley or bring the left jab.

Players can use their own Mii caricatures in the game and play them against their friends’ Miis for a more personalized experience. As players improve, their Miis’ skill levels will increase, so that they can see exactly how much better they’ve become.

People of all skill levels can pick up and play any of the games in the unprecedented Wii Sports package, making this truly a title for everyone!

5 Stars super fun! And usable if you’re a Capper (handicapped)
this review is to help people who are disabled know what games they can play. If you have limited arm movement but you can still play two of the games in this bundle.

Wii tennis is the one I play the most often and it is loads of fun as long as you can move one hand and hold or tape the controller to yourself you should be able to play as it doesn’t require any buttons to the pressed.

the other is Wii boxing as long as you can hold both the nunchuck & Wii controller you should be good to go.

The rest of the games in his bundle require some button pressing which on the controller for Wii is to near impossible for me.

I feel tennis is the most accessible game in the bundle as even if you can move only one arm you can play.

Oh, and as for the rest of you normal people this game bundle is loads of fun the best video game experience I’ve had in years!

5 Stars A favorite party game at our house
This is definitely going to be a classic. It’s a great solo game and a great party game.

5 Stars Great Game
We really like this game. It is user friendly and a lot of fun. It gives me the chance to exercise my upper body as I am handicapped and cannot do a lot on foot. I get a good workout with the games on WII Sports and thoroughly enjoy it. The grandkids do also.

we shoved aside the coffee table and played the newest games until our fingers blistered and our brows glistened. Then, with the help of New York City personal trainer Lindsay Dunlap, we found the games that deliver the most fitness for all that living-room fun. Here's your game plan. Anyone else notice in the thumbnail how they are doing it wrong?

Last month I had the chance to chat with a top U.S. Nintendo exec and suggest how, with a few savvy improvements to the Wii system, the company could turn it into the living room Net appliance of choice. But despite the opportunity Nintendo has with the Wii, the company seems determined to let it remain a mere video game console. Big-screen HDTVs have reached a price point of several hundred dollars. That means consumers are now bringing home television displays both large and crisp enough fo

Millions of people around the world jump around their living room as they wrestle with the controls of a Nintendo Wii. But can playing a simulated sport on the computer actually be GOOD for your health?
