Wii Play

Does anyone have this game yet? I'm hopefully gonna snag a Wii soon and was wondering if I should pick this game up.

I dont have it but if you really want it then you should problably do it as quikcly as possible because it is quite rare to find. One of my mates brought it over when he stayed for a few days and on tro players it was a lot of fun. I think the fact that it is only a bit more money because of including the remote also helps a lot if you want more remots.

Good luck getting your wii because I had mine since launch and I really like it but otherwise its hard to get hold of one! I was in a GAME store competition friday and yesterday and people kept asking to buy one but couldnt.

I should be able to snag one today. I'll see here in about an hour and a half. if I do get it, I think I'l get wii play and zelda. maybe red steel after I try it at a friends house next weekend. or maybe I'll rent it.

I have Wii Play.

Don't get it unless you need the extra controller. There really is nothing in this game that you'll ever want to play more than once. Eight mini, mini games and nothing at all to go back for.

I agree with you Ross but it still is alright on multiplayer or at least it was with my mate.

I read gamestation are putting it used with a remote for £25.

I agree with Rossko UK. I purchased the game whe it came out, figuring it should be $15 (as the Wiimote is $44 alone), but I was mistaken. Wii Play is not worth $15. To be honest, Nintendo should pay me $15 for the 1/2 hour of my life wasted playing this game.

I'm rather surprised at the opinions here. You guys should get girlfriends who invite a lot of other women over. I witnessed 4 hours of mayhem as 8 women tried to complete the cow races and the duck hunt activities

I am married (surprise surprise), but even my wife (who is not a gamer, and only play NHL Hockey), found Wii Play to be very awful. Her quote was to ask if this game was for "special" children.

I have shown the Wii to many who come over, and the only game that women like is Wii Bowling.

My point exactly

I may have failed to mention the group of women here also had a few large bottles of wine with them

I don't think it is worth the $20 used you can buy the game alone at GameStop ... but I needed the controller.

However, watching my mother-in-law and two other non-gamer relatives playing head to head in my livingroom ... it was very worth it :-) No beer involved :-)

Nintendo shouldve given drinks with it, that would make it worth it. Sober, this game is totally not worth the $$$,-

UKJAY · June 28th, 2007, 15:13

I didn't bother with Wii play...was an option when I bought the wii because it also gives you an extra nu nu chuck chunk swing thingy

As of yet - I can't think of 1 good wii game that would suit my taste in games

nofear360 · June 28th, 2007, 15:19

Oh ... well, I thought you meant "it takes $10 to get properly drunk", making the game worth it lol.

AugustusBot · June 28th, 2007, 16:41

Now i don't think i'll be buying this for use at home, I have wii sports, monkey ball, and wario for drinking,

But here at the office, Wii Play was a good pickup. I've only played 'duck hunt' or whatever so far, but that is worth it on its own for the $10. It's a quick, fun game. Playing a 4 person game of bowling can take 15-20 minutes, playing a 2 man duckhunt will take 5. Perfect for little relaxing breaks from work.

If duckhunt wouldve had i little more depth, i would agree. But after playing it 6 times I'm kinda bored with the thing..

Yeah duckhunt was good in its day, but kinda lacks appeal
