Harvest Moon: Magicial Melody (Wii)

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

March 14, 2008
I recently bought this game for myself and have thoroughly enjoyed it. Firstly, you choose a place to live (I chose the ocean). If you run out of land, you can purchase more. This is the same with homes; you can build another home or barn or whatever you may desire.
There are hundreds of activities for instance, planting vegetables, fishing, cooking, mining, looking after animals and plenty more.
The object of the game is to collect music notes to turn The Harvest Goddess back to a human, you have a rival called Jamie who is also trying to do the same thing; hopefully you'll get there first! There are 50 different notes and you do tasks like, staying awake all of the night to get these notes. After collecting five notes the harvest ... Read More:

4Gamers Officially Licensed Messenger Console Bag (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo Wii

December 08, 2006

I have to say, as an extremely loyal Nintendo supporter (see my review for the Wii Console and Gamecube) it breaks my heart to say that I was just a little disappointed with this Bag...

Firstly, however noble of those reviewers who say that there is 'plenty' of room to store all the stuff in this bag for the Wii, this is not realistic - come on now! Okay, so with much difficulty, and some extra thought and time, perhaps enough for a 'solo' player's needs - that is; Wii Console, Sensor Bar, one Nunchuck, Controller and cables (tightly) - but honestly, nothing else... If anyone really can fit any more than this in the bag, I'd like to see a demonstration please!

What I'm more disappointed about, is the ... Read More:

Dog Island (Wii)

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

April 11, 2008
That's my question to the producers.
I bought it for my son, but with a depressing storyline and a lot of plain freeky stuff it just isn't suitable.

The game runs well, gives a cute/cuddly image and has something of the older Japanese RPGs about it. Not my thing but I thought my son would love it.
I was disappointed by the bad grammar firstly, so for his reading it would be a bad education. Then you have a story that is so sickening unhappy its just not the sort of thing you want in a children's "game".
Seriously, does anyone want their children to get spammed in-game by a doctor reminding them of the imminent death of a family member?

Yes the game works well, yes it has some interesting story elements. You don't ... Read More:

Logic 3 Table Tennis Bats (Twin Pack) (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo Wii

April 20, 2008
These bats work really well with the table tennis game for wii and make gameplay seem even more realistic. The remote easily slips into the gap and a bonus is that the table tennis shaped end doesn't block the signal. This means that you don't have to keep detaching the remote to select options on the main menu. Having 2 bats is very useful for playing in pairs or groups. Overall, a good product to buy if you have the table tennis game.

My Horse and Me (Wii)

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

November 23, 2007
I think this is a great game but I don't think it has a whole lot of replay value after the competitions are all over. If there were a sequel I'd love to see cross country courses (not just the usual ones, where you go from one to the next, but like in real life where you have to turn in different directions and sometimes double back on yourself) but that's only a minor complaint, since there are enough showjumping courses to give you something to get your teeth into. It would have been nice to have some form of story mode, although sometimes it's nice to play without one. The mini games are OK, but kind of repetitive, and the Spot The Difference seems impossible to do!
I liked the fact you can fully customise yourself and your horse; not many equestrian games ... Read More:

Crash of the Titans (Wii)

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

October 12, 2007
I really enjoy this game and if your a Crash fan you will too. It doesnt make full use of the wii controller though, you might aswell use a standard controller for this game.

The instructions are non existent so you have to guess what to do as you go along which can be a bit frustrating at times.

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith with Wireless Controller (Wii)

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

June 27, 2008
Prior to playing this Aerosmith version I had never played any of the Guitar Hero games & must admit, until this release it hadn't really appealed to me all that much. Once I saw that my all time favourite rock band had licensed a game however I decided to shell out on the Limited Edition package & have to say I'm more than pleased with the purchase.

The graphics aren't particularly great & the actual concept of the game isn't as innovative as I'd expected but you can't escape the fact that Guitar Hero is a bundle of fun. I understand there's less tracks to rock out to with this version but there's still around 25 Aerosmith tracks plus maybe another dozen or so by other artists. I have to say however that one of the dissapointments is the selection of chosen ... Read More:
