Super Mario Galaxy

from: Nintendo

November 12, 2007
Great game over all this is one of the best mario games i have played yet. It has great controls. It even uses the motion sensor somewhat on certain levels making them really hard to beat. It also has great music and great graphics and the levels are intense. Espically when he flies to them and circles around. I have completed this game all the way through its great its a must buy for the nintendo wii really shows off the graphics power of it. Not sure if i mention this earlier but the camera angles are great to they catch up really fast if they get thrown off mario gamers will know what im talking about.

LEGO Batman

from: Warner Bros

September 23, 2008
You'd figure that with two Lego Star Wars games and Lego Indiana Jones already under their belts, Travelers Tales' Lego games would be getting kind of stale. Well, you'd figure wrong. Lego Batman features everything that was enjoyable with the aforementioned games, and slaps the Batman license on it to boot. Playing as the Caped Crusader and his sidekick Robin, you traverse a Lego-fied Gotham City and take on the usual rogues gallery of baddies. Fans of the Batman comics will be happy to see plenty of familiar faces: Joker, Nightwing, Batgirl, Hush, Bane, and plenty more are all here for your amusement. If you've played any of the previous Lego-based games, you should already know what to expect here, as Lego Batman offers up plenty of funny ... Read More:

Wii Charge Station

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

March 15, 2007
I'm much happier with the charge station over endlessly swapping out batteries in the Wii controllers, but there are a few minor tweaks I would make to the next revision:

1. Add a groove in the center of the remote cradle for the hand strap to rest. I can still charge with the handstrap attached, but it's a more tenuous way to place the charger in the dock. If I get bored one day a Dremel tool can fix that issue quickly :)

2. I don't use skins for my Wii controllers, but apparently they don't work well with the charge station. I wonder if creating the station to accommodate the skins and then having some snap-in sleeves for the naked controllers would work.

It is a fun way to exercise. It is not often than one can combine exercise with a video game but this does both quite well.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

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

March 09, 2008
I don't like fighter games. Never have. I've pretty much given up on the genre as a repetitive mindless button-mashing that takes no skill at all (see Tekken or Soul Caliber) Then I went to a friends' house and tried this game... and found that it was actually fun! It's awesome for all skill levels, as there is a handicap setting that allowed me to be even with my friend. I decided to buy it the next day and started playing. I pretty much knew the ins and outs of the moves you could make within around five minutes, it is really straightforward. I would absolutely recommend this game to anybody who asks about it.

Wii Rock Band Special Edition

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

June 22, 2008
This is my first experience with any of the instrument playing games (rock band or guitar hero). I purchased it here on Amazon for a lower price than in stores near me and got free shipping. That alone was enough to make me excited. I bought this for my 13 year old stepdaughter for her birthday. It is great! We love it very much. Everything worked and was in perfect condition when we received it in the mail. I had already read the reviews stating that there is not much customization, but that is fine with us as we just like to rock! One suggestion, children much younger than mine (13 yrs) are likely to really bang on the drums hard and in general be a little rough on the instruments. I just mentioned it to them that they can be a little more gentle and ... Read More:

We Ski

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

May 13, 2008
I was looking forward to getting WiiSki because it looked like there would be a LOT of different runs and mountains to play on and I would have a chance to use my balance board. Well, the runs grow old after the first time down and really are just sections of other runs in many cases. They are all short. The ski lifts are boring and you just bypass them. The graphics aren't very good. You can play the game with two people but then you don't use the balance board.
Overall, I could have better used my money on a PS3 game that has more to do and much better graphics.

Wii Grand Slam Sports Pack

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


My husband received this sports pack for his birthday. The first thing we tried to use was the steering wheel...we had another one made by Nintendo and we wanted to play Mario Kart together.

We were sad to see that the Steering Wheel does not work -- there is no cutout for the sensor at the end of the Wii remote to communicate with the game! It completely blocks the signal from the remote! You would think they would have noticed this...The Nintendo steering wheel, however, works fantastic.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

As always the Twilight Princess is yet another epic addition to the Zelda franchise. Involving storyline, beautiful scenery, amazing character design and intuitive game play, its everything a great action RPG is made of. I would highly recommend this game and eagerly await the next installment in the Zelda universe.

Carnival Games

All the games I have played at one time or another at my local county fair growing up. It's fun and even little kids who understand the remote can play. Great for kids and adults and its never boring. All these games can be found at the local county fair, arcades, or even at amusement parks. It's fun and easy to play!
