Wii Fanboy Review: Ultimate Shooting Collection
The games in Ultimate Shooting Collection are a great showcase for the evolution of the shooter genre, which may seem stagnant or even dead, in the modern age. Even with the piles upon piles of existing shooters, there aren't any like these on the Virtual Console.

Wii Fanboy Review: High Voltage Hot Rod Show
And how does one race? Well, in the controls department, the game handles very much like Mario Kart Wii. You hold the Wiimote sideways, tilting it to steer your racer, while you hold the 2 button in for your throttle. When in the air, you shake the Wiimote to perform stunts, just like in Mario Ka...
Wii Fanboy Review: Family Glide Hockey
Plus, air hockey, the arcade attraction on which the WiiWare game is based, is generally awesome and underrepresented in games. The combination of good family sports game series and air hockey seemed like a natural winner. originally appeared on Nintendo Wii Fanboy on Wed, 21 Jan 2009 09:...

Wii Fanboy Review: Sandy Beach
While not all of Hudson's WiiWare offerings are necessarily successful in terms of sales or critical response, they've been responsible for some of the best, and best-selling, games on the service. And even when they don't do so well, effort is evident. So why can't Hudson's parent compan...

Metareview - The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels
GamePro (70/100) says this one is for the younger fans: "The shallow fighting system, the teenage snark and animation won't impress older fans of the series, but it's good fun for younger Jedis in training." GameSpy (60/100) is of the mind that this is a good prequel to the inevitable Motio...

Mushroom Men: The Spore Wait
Unfortunately, we can no longer claim that Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars is one of the most promising games of this fall -- not because we've changed our minds about the game or anything, but because it's no longer a game of this fall. Gamecock announced that both the DS and Wii Mushroom Men gam...

Nintendo teaching people how to use the Zapper
Attach Wiimote.Aim.Pull trigger. Then again, perhaps we're underestimating the complexity of the peripheral, because if you saw the guide Nintendo has posted on its website to assembling and using the add-on, it would be easy to believe that the Zapper contains many deep, convoluted mys...

Wii Fanboy review: Victorious Boxers Revolution
Finally, you can also engage in Classic Controller or GameCube Controller modes, which allow you to use either. Here, the game works the same as just about any other boxing game you've played, so those of you familiar with the genre can really just pick up and play without worrying about the...

Wii Fanboy Review: Crash of the Titans
While it's quite comical when the cursor is changed during cutscenes to funny shapes such as a mustache, allowing you to make a few jokes at the game's characters' expense, none of the game's controls feel suited to the Wii. They don't feel as if they were set with the Wii in mind, lovingly cra...
