Nintendo Wii Screenshots: Sonic Riders Zero Gravity

I tried this as a rental today and boy was I very disappointed. The game is so frustrating with its uninformative tutorial. I could not even get past the second objective about some dash thing. It never clearly tells you what to do. Basically I gave up after 15 minutes of that level and mailed it back. So glad I did not buy this game, as it was one of those games I often almost bought.

Nintendo Wii Screenshots: Big Beach Sports

I borrowed Big Beach Sports from my brother for a few hours today. I did not get to play it much, but did try each game. It is kind of a fun game to play, although I think it would get boring fast as a single player game. With some friends, though, it could be a really fun multiplayer game.

Game Boy Advance: Madagascar Operation Penguin

I totally love penguins, so I rented Madagascar: Operation Penguin. It is a fun adventure game, especially for kids or fellow penguin lovers. The graphics are great for a Game Boy Advance game. The game is overall a lot of fun to play and not too hard either. Click on the thumbnails below to see a larger version.

Nintendo DS Screenshots: Cartoon Network Racing

Cartoon Network Racing is a nice challenging Racing game. I am not really into the Cartoon Network characters, but I do love racing games and this one gives a good challenge. It starts out being kind of tough, so if you are not good at racing games this game can be frustrating. Click on the screenshots below to see a larger version.

Nintendo Wii Screenshots: Boom Blox

This is a fun new fangled Jenga like game. Sure it is not really all that much like Jenga, but that is the easiest thing I can come close to comparing it to. It does have some levels that are very Jenga like with you removing pieces and trying to not have it fall down. The best thing about this game is that it is a fun cooperative play multiplayer game. Also, it uses the uniqueness of the Wii controls pretty good. Click the thumbnails below to see a larger version of the screenshots.

Nintendo Wii Video Clip: Wild Earth African Safari

Below is a clip of me playing this game. It is kind of crappy, though, because I did not have a tripod and was trying to play and hold the camera at the same time.

Nintendo Wii Screenshots: Wild Earth African Safari

This is a fun photojournalist game. I loved the Pokemon Snap game and finally I found another console photography game to play. While Pokemon Snap has its own charm, this game is totally more awesome with it being kind of realistic feeling with you going to photograph animals in their natural African wildlife settings. Plus there are some fun mini games. Click the thumbnails below to see a larger version of the screenshots.
