Game is okay, its not as fully functional as a game would be from Nintendo.

Def. not a "Party"
Rating Point :1 Helpful Point :0
This should be called "Game Collection", or something. Theres definitely no party involved. Weve played each mini-game a few times, and it just never escalated to the point of real fun. Mild amusement for some (shuffleboard, hoops), and total frustration for others (beer pong). And the beer pong and darts just made me think I should buy a real dartboard and/or ping pong table, and forget the Wii.

Dumb game. Dont buy it. At least borrow or rent it first. Seriously, it wasnt even worth the $15 we spent for it.

Question for all...

How many controllers are supposed to work with this game? So far I can only get one controller to work, but there can be two players on one controller. Is there a way to get 4 controllers working or is that the way it is supposed to be? Should I try to return the game?? Thanks!

There are so many better party/multi activity games out there. Midway dropped the ball with this one. The controls are not responsive, the games are not exciting, and the answers in the trivia game have many flaws. Also, you have to select one of there generic characters to use instead of your mii. I would look elsewhere for a fun party game.

Limited mini-games, but fun overall.

First, to really enjoy the game, you have to take note that the sensor bar is used in EVERY game. Its not like some of the other mini-game/party game disc that dont require a sensor bar, so make sure your sensor bar is fully functioning. For those with a big screen or a projector screen like us, this can cause a few issues.

The games are fun. Skill (Skee) ball is a blast. I dont understand why everyone is so upset about the "beer pong" game. If anyone wasnt aware of what beer pong was, youd have no idea it was geared towards drinking. None of the cups have liquid in them, none of the avatars drink when you get a ball in the cup. There is no mini-game in this game that isnt appropriate for youth.

Like most games, youll have to get the hang of how to play before you are a pro Most of these, you are not going to pick up your controller and ace right through. So its a bit of a challenge to learn techniques, which is nice. Why buy a game youd be great at without having to try? I found the darts particularly frustrating. What is neat is that it even takes into account how hard you thrust or push the controller.

I particularly like the Trivia, which can be played up to 4 players. It took a few moments for us to figure out that once you click your answer, the game doesnt react right away until everyone else answers, and the first once to answer gets points, so for the first few rounds I was shouting "What the heck?! I totally answered that right!!!" until I realized what was going on. But once you lock your answer in, your controller vibrates a bit so it lets you know that all is good.

For $10, I think its well worth the money and fun for parties or just hanging out with friends and/or family.
