Wii Play with Wii Remote

good as a tool to teach system controls. my son (6) enjoys the boxing most; my husband the no frills bowling.

Do you like Wii Sports? If so, you'll like this game (actually, a collection of games) too. Also, you get a Wii Remote along with the package. So basically you are buying another bunch of multiplayer Wii games and a Wii Remote. If that's what you want, this game is for you.

My favorite games:
- Laser Hockey
- Tank Battles
- Pool (9-ball)
- The shooting game

I think that everybody that buy this game is only for the wiimote, but is fun to play it for a while....

WiiPlay feels more like a demo package for the WiiMote than the WiiSports game included in the Wii box--which is pretty demo-ish. Some of the games on WiiPlay are cute, but our experience was that they were only fun for a short period of time. Our favorite was the target shooting game--kids and adults both enjoyed shooting at the targets in a throwback to the classic Nintendo Duck Hunt game--and the game gets really crazy and fun at the end when your surprise visitors show up.

I gave this game four stars though, because its a great deal with the included WiiMote. A WiiMote is typically $39, so at $49, WiiPlay is basically a $10 game added on to an additional remote. You'll definitely want four remotes, so why not get a bonus game while you're at it? For that reason, I would recommend WiiPlay to anyone buying a new Wii, or as an add on to people looking to buy extra WiiMotes.

Games are fun, more fun when two people play. Getting extra remote is a bonus as well as they are just as expensive as getting buying the remote separately and getting the game free. Games fun for most ages.
