Carnival Games review

When we heard that Carnival Games for Wii had sold over 1.5 million copies we knew we had to go and take a look at the game. Who doesn’t like to go to the fair? Of course, no one, that’s who! Everyone loves going to the fair, where else besides Disneyland can you get expensive rides, tacky stalls, badly cooked food and old men dressed up as animals? Carnival Games Wii with over 25 genuine Carnival games tries to recreate all the fun and frolics of going to the Carnival in the comfort of your own home – it sounds...

Ninja Reflex review

Ninja Reflex for Wii is a small budget release by Nunchuck Games and is published by Electronic Arts. It’s labelled as a Ninja Skills trainer/simulator but really is just a collection of minigames. Nunchuck Games proudly display the photos of three martial arts experts on the Ninja Reflex mini-site who claim it is pretty good. We may not know our Xingyi from our Poomsae but we do know our Wii games so let’s see if Ninja Skills Wii gets a lowly white belt or a high ranking black belt in our review of Ninja Reflex. Upon booting the game for...

Grab your Wii Remote and Nunchuck which simulate as your ski poles then hop onto the Wii balance board for your ultra realistic home skiing experience with up to four players at home and...

Ninja Reflex review

Would you like to have the speed, skills, courage and stealth to be a Ninja? Thought so, me too! If EA are keeping to their promises then this game will have you trained and ready to Ninja about the place after just a series of mini-game challenges. Apparently there is now no need to fly to Japan and lock yourself away in a monastery for years without anything to distract you from the dedicated pursuit; all you need is a Wii, a Wii Remote and copy of Ninja Reflex. Thanks to Matt I now have all three and so embarked...

Big Brain Academy Wii Degree review

I’m taking a look at the Wii re-thinking of the popular Nintendo DS mind expanding game Big Brain Academy. This one’s called Wii Degree and uses the pointy clicky fun of the remote instead of the touchy-feely stylus and has support for multi-player fun which turns the thinking game into a party game. Big Brain Academy has always been the more visual title when compared with Brain Training so it’s only right this one comes to a big telly so all the silly animals and noises can be seen in all their glory. At first I was wary as to...
