Looking back, this game was definitely just a Pokémon-based minigame collection made to cash in on the popularity of the Wii's motion controls, but the developers put so much effort into the connective tissue between each minigame that as a complete package, PokéPark turned out really charming and memorable. I think the developers realized this too, considering how minor the minigames are in the sequel (even if that disappointed me personally, because I actually really enjoy the minigames in this game).
