Product Description:
Amazon.co.uk Review:: In a nutshell: If you want as gentle an introduction as possible to the world of Wii then this user-friendly compilation of mini-games is just the thing for you, with a collection of games that are as easy to play as they are fun.
The lowdown: It might be easy to use but the Wii is still a pretty unusual beast and a bit of a culture shock from the overly complex controllers of other consoles. This compilation of mini-games aims to ease you in gently with simple to play games that only need the Wii Remote to enjoy. These include games of table tennis, air hockey (or Laser Hockey as the game would have it) and an updated of NES classic Duck Hunt. There's also Wii Billiards, a fishing sim and a number of games which use your customised Mii Channel character, including Wii Pose and the Where's Wally style Find Mii. Since many of these games have a multiplayer mode the game also comes bundled with an extra Remote (but not a nunchuck), which usually sells for £29.99 separately.
Most exciting moment: Although all of the games are fun the best one is probably the Duck Hunt update (which also has you shooting UFOs and other non-avian enemies). Perhaps what's most exciting about it is that it proves how good other light gun franchises, such as Virtua Cop and Time Crisis would be on the Wii.
Since you ask: Many of the mini-games included with Wii Play, such as Duck Hunt and Table Tennis, were first seen as technical demos at the E3 trade conference in May 2006, when the Wii was first revealed in playable form.
The bottom line: The beginner's guide to Wii, with a handy extra controller. - HARRISON DENT

There are 9 activities in Wii Play to help improve on your skills with the Wii Remote and here they are...

To do so, connect two Wii Remotes, and hold one in each hand.

The first thing that struck me about the Wii in general was that one of the first times I ever found myself playing it, my grandma (who is 70+), my brother (17), myself (22) and my niece (3) were all playing the same game (wii sports).
Wii Play IS worth buying - you get a free remote! But what's even better than that? They give you the batteries! Okay, so they're not rechargable, but how many people actually supply those sort of things 'free' these days?
The games are simple, but you have to unlock each one in turn - it coaches you through at first (and every time you add a new player from the Mii Channel). You can poke at the players in the main menu and they react, some Mii's in the background go swimming by (literally). ... Read More:
