A testament to the wii controller though not great lasting value . . .

Wii Play includes 9 games that have both single and competitive play. When you play singles, you are challenging yourself to gain medals from bronze to platinum. In competitive play, you are one on one against another human player. There is no final score you are trying to reach, but you can play for as long as you want.

The first game is similar to classic duck hunt, but it includes five stages: balloon shooting, target practice, clay shooting, can bouncing and alien protection. It is probably one of the more lasting games of the set because of the randomness and variety of objects to shoot.

The second game is called Find Mii. Basically, it gives an objective like find 2 of a kind or the fastest moving one and you have to click on it. It is random and interesting to play as well.

The third game is ping pong. In single mode, you have to try to keep a volley going. In competitive mode, you have to score 11 points to win. It is not as good as tennis from Wii Sports but is a fun little break from the other games.

The fourth game is probably the most bizzare. In Wii Pose, you have to slide your character over the bubble with the correct pose to pop it and gain points. Stages continue until to mess up enough times.

The fifth game is similar to Pong but more like air hockey. In Laser Hockey, you slide your bar around the screen to knock the puck. The highest score of course wins the match.

The sixth game is billards. In this one, the single player mode tries to see how well you have perfected your shots and ability to knock in multiple balls at a time. In competitive, you try to knock the higher numbered balls in to score more points (the points scored are equal to the number of the ball).

The seventh game is a form of fishing in a pond. You have to dip your hook in the water and snap the controller back when you get a hit. Bonus points are awarded if you can snag the fish shown at the top of the screen.

The eighth game is a race of sorts with your Mii on a cow. The point is to race to the finish and knock down scarecrows on the way. Each set gives bonus points and the ones that move are even higher in value.

The final game is a tank game similar to the Atari game Combat. You drive a tank around the arena and try to take out the other tanks. Each one has its own special ability, but yours simply moves and fires shots that bounce off the wall only once. Other tanks have faster bullets, lay mines or fire multiple rounds at a time.

In all, the game does not have great lasting value. What it does do is showcase the abilities of the Wii controller and give hope to the future of the system. In the lack of graphics compared to the 360 and PS3, there is definitely hope for upcoming games like Mario Party, Super Mario, Super Smash Brothers, Metroid Prime, Star Fox and more.

Hey, it comes with a controller and is actually only $10 when you get down to it. It is actually a decent value.
