Simplicity at its finest. While this game is effectively a tech demo for the Nintendo Wii, it is not only a perfect showcase for this console's motion controls but also an enjoyable time with friends or even solo.

Each of the 5 games on display here utilizes motion controls slightly differently, with some games (Tennis and Boxing) being more fast-paced and kinetic, while the others (Baseball, Golf, and Bowling) are more methodical and slower-paced. All of these play well and are fun in their own right.

The biggest complaint is that they are all quite shallow content-wise. There is not much else to do if you don't like the 5 base games, however for what it is worth that was never the point of this title. It was a pack-in title for the Nintendo Wii to show off the console's features, and I believe it did that extremely well.

Despite the hardware's limitations, the childish nature of the story, and the somewhat awkward controls, I love this game. The fact that they expanded on the GameCube title and had it on the DS still astonishes me, as the amount of content here is staggering.

Being able to create and fight with your little Robo, with each piece affecting your build in unique and interesting ways shattered my mind as a kid. I loved using the hornet guns and making an agile build. After all this time I can agree that the controls do take some getting used to, as you need to move around a 3D environment using a D-Pad, which is pretty cumbersome.

The story, while cliche and childish, was still fun and I was always invested in it, especially with the characters and the contemporary setting. Graphically it looked pretty good, and the music was not very memorable either, however, the fact they got this to run on the Nintendo DS still boggles my mind.

Nowadays more in-depth titles capture the magic of this original game, but it's the balance of simplistic design with complex combat mechanics that makes this game worthwhile to revisit. I truly think this game is a hidden gem of the console, and people should at least check it out once.

In my opinion, this game is just an improved Final Fantasy III in every way. The story is much more fun and interesting to me, the job system is more fleshed out and intricate, not to mention fun to play around with, and it looks and sounds fantastic.

My only complaint about this title is that it is quite difficult if you don't know what you are doing. At worst, this game requires a lot of grinding to get the builds that you want for your team. The story is also pretty generic and simplistic when compared to the previous title, however, I don't think that is a bad thing whatsoever. This is an easy recommendation for any JRPG fan, especially for those who like job systems seen in games like Bravely Default.
