Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)

from: Nintendo

November 16, 2007
Well what a game. its got good gameplay and graphics are really flashy. I has all the glitz of Super Mario 64. But one anoying thing the control is crap. You should be able to use classic controller for this game. like all the new games have. it would be perfect. so shame about that. its a awesome game.

well done nintendo but shame on you for the control. yes you get used to it eventually after hours of playing.

Link's Crossbow Training (inc. Wii Zapper) (Wii)

from: Nintendo

December 07, 2007
I bought this game for my boys and being a considerate mum (to avoid the fighting) I bought a spare gun / crossbow for the second controller.

It would appear that you can only set it up for one controller which is them passed between players. (If I'm wrong I'm hoping someone will explain how to get the second one working!)

So - in short - good game but don't waste your money buying a second gun / crossbow.

Nintendo DS Lite Handheld Console (Silver)

from: Nintendo

October 12, 2007
We owned an original Nintendo DS for two years - we bought it right when it released in December 2004. When I first saw the DS Lite at E3 in 2006, I was thrilled. The game great handheld unit design - but lighter! Brighter! Tuned! It really showed that Nintendo had been paying attention to customer feedback during those two years, and had tweaked its unit to be even better than before.

First, the weight. We always *loved* the design of the DS, with its folding top. As PSP owners, I can't tell you how many time that poor PSP screen gets dinged or scratched. We had to buy extra carrying cases for our PSP and get screen protectors. In comparison, the DS's clamshell design means the screen is perfectly protected when you tote it around in your ...

Nintendogs Labrador Retriever & Friends (Nintendo DS)

from: Nintendo

October 07, 2005
I got this game for christmas with my ds. My dad chose it and I think it was a great choice. You get to buy a puppy and train it lots of tricks. When you train your puppy's name it can be hard but you'll get through it. Its fun going on walks but don't let your puppy eat rubbish! I love going in contests. There are three different types. You also get to wash, groom, and play with your puppy. Collecting supplies is fun. In accseseries I even got a lions mane and santas hat! You get to meet your friends dogs and give them presents. I say anyone could like this game so please buy it! Its worth the money.

Professor Kageyama's Maths Training (Nintendo DS)

from: Nintendo

February 08, 2008
I bought this game today as maths is a weak point and I've really enjoyed the Brain Training games. This game is everything I expected it to be but after 10 minutes I'm suffering with bad motion sickness! The background is orange with little boxes that move horizontally from left to right on both screens and all the exercises have this behind so there is no escape!!

There are options to turn the annoying music and sound effects off but all you have to do to stop that is turn the volume down! You'd of thought they would have an option to stop the annoying background moving!

It's a shame because I may have to get rid of this game before my subconscious associates sickness with maths!!!

Conclusion: If you want basic ... Read More:

Pokémon Diamond (Nintendo DS)

from: Nintendo

July 25, 2007
I cannot beleive some people gave this game a 1 star!!!!
You complete weirdo!
Surely if oyu like pokemon previous games for gameboy advanced and S then why on earth dont you like this game!?!?!!?!?
No way is it "exactly like previous games" well the origin is still the same as in an adventure with 2 evil villians and you trying ot catch pokemon, but hey thats why everyone LOVED pokemon games so much!!
and it isnt the same because you do use the stylus i think and theres a different story-line as usual and overall is a well put together game!

If you are a fan of pokemon games this is a must buy!
Really ignore the others, if you look at there other reviews there just moody >:|, lol

Cooking Guide (Nintendo DS)

from: Nintendo

June 20, 2008
Personally I found this to be total rubbish,

Even after following recipes to the letter I end up with very unsatisfactory results.... runny sauces et al.

The speech recognition has to be disabled because when you use it and do anything remotely noisy (like chopping ingredients!!!) it thinks you are speaking and it gets totally confused taking you back through the cooking instructions.

This means you have to use the stylus which is hardly ideal when cooking. It was very disappointing given I thought I had found something useful to do with my DS rather than 'training my brain' or zapping aliens....

I would say spend you're money on a good Delia cook book.

Tetris DS (Nintendo DS)

from: Nintendo

April 21, 2006
Hi,

I'm not a bad player at Tetris. I liked the original Gameboy version and I actually wrote a faster version in less than a day for an old Psion organiser (remember those?) and called it Turbotris! I used to play my own version of the game but noone else I knew could play it at the fastest settings. The reason I could play so fast was that in the original gameboy version (and my faster remake) I always knew where to put the next piece before I'd dropped the current piece in. This was because the next piece was clearly shown at a convenient eye level next to the playing area so you could see both at the exact same time.

The trouble I have with the DS version (I've only played the wifi 2 player game so far) is that I am playing blind even though now it ... Read More:
