6 in 1 Sports Utility Pack (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo Wii
from: Atomic Accessories

July 03, 2007
I bought two of these sports packs when I bought the Wii, but have found it irritating to put them on the controller each time you want to play a game and they add NOTHING to the experience. The Wii controller in it's rubber casing with the wrist strap is tactile and easy to hold, whereas the fussing required to screw on these accessories only holds up the game and doesn't help aim/wack/hit at all. Wish I hadn't wasted my money.

Call of Duty 3 (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo Wii
from: Activision

December 01, 2006
Firstly let me say that I'm a huge COD fan having all versions for the PC, but this Wii version of COD3 is virtually unplayable even on the easiest setting. The nunchuck/remote control is incredibly difficult to master and simple tasks like negotiating a doorway become a chore. But that's nothing compared to the hand-to-hand fighting scenarios that are quite physically demanding and generally result in frustration. I even bought a Wii 'Zapper' in the hope it would steady basic movement which it does slightly but not to an acceptable level. Another downside is the lenghty video intros at each level which can't be skipped and become tedious when resuming a game. It's a real shame because the storyline looks pretty good and I'm sure the XBox ... Read More:

USB Access Point (Nintendo DS & Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo Wii
from: Nintendo

Bought this product for use with my Wii and was impressed at how easy it was to set up. Installed first time, but then the next day it stopped working. The device simply isn't recognised by the computer - have tried re-installing drivers to no avail. Un-installed the device and now cannot install afresh - very annoying!

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

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo Wii
from: Nintendo

December 07, 2007
The zapper itself is solid and feels like it's made of good quality materials. It's cleverly designed as well, keeping the nunchuck lead snugly wrapped up in the rear handle, where it contributes to the weight and balance of the zapper. Like other people who have reviewed it, however, I think that the two-handle design feels a bit awkward, regardless of whether you have your right hand at the front on the trigger, or at the back on the nunchuck stick. I find that my arms and hands ache after using it for about 30 minutes, because you have to bend your elbows-in and wrists-out to keep your hands in-line on the two handles.

The best part of this package is the game, Link's Crossbow Training: ironic since it's a pretty simple collection ... Read More:

Cars (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo Wii
from: THQ

December 08, 2006
(by Jiordan 12) My mum ordered this game for me and when i got it i was so exciting. I love this game and it never ends one of the best games. The reason i am deducting a star is because it is quite hard to steer and my 3 year old cousin struggles trying to go around a corner because iit is quite hard to steer. Other then that itis pretty easy, and you can do the full size experience (for teenagers, older children or adults) or the small cars one (for younger children). I reccommend this game to any one who was lookin to buy it.

64MB Gamecube Memory Card

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo Wii
from: Logic 3

November 05, 2002
With an absurd 1019 blocks of memory space, this memory card is a must have for all gamecube gamers alike! Whether you're playing Fifa (with its insane memory chomping space) to games such as Splinter Cell (usually taking up 50 blocks), you have nothing to worry about!

I laughed myself silly upon the thought of a memory card for Gamecube being able to hold so much information, but its fantastic! This is a MUST buy for your gamecube console! Its just as important as the controller/game's itself! (To an extent that is...)

I sold my old useless 8MB for a 64MB memory card and i was rewarded with no memory card errors, no hassle, no swapping memory cards because i ran out of space. This memory card will last you forever, a great affordable ... Read More:

Tomb Raider: Anniversary (Wii)

Played the original briefly on the ps1 years ago. I didn't really get into all that much, but with this version I can really appreciate how good the game is, The gameplay, puzzles and graphics are all very well done. The combat is top notch, with lots of evasive manouvres and special attacks to do. i couldn't quite do it very well on ps1 version, but maybe it was just me. But I do recommend this game, its excellent.

Need for Speed: ProStreet (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo Wii
from: Electronic Arts

November 23, 2007
Having played this on someone elses's Xbox 360 and also the PSP version, I have to say the wii incarnation is the best. I can see where the free roamers wouldn't like this, because there ain't no free roamin', but as a straight up racer it pretty much hits the mark but with one huge problem. Whilst the controls are responsive and the gameplay is fine, it is way too easy. I don't think I am that good at video driving games, but apart from drift mode, getting through to meet and beat the bosses (often even easier than the levels below) was no trouble at all. It appears that the AI is defective in this regard. For example you might be up against some car with a 200mph top speed but it is cruising along at 140 on a long straight as you zoom by them.

So all in all a decent ... Read More:
