    Offers a much more entertaining mix than many of the other sports titles we've seen on both DS and 3DS. It's not a game that will keep you captivated for months, but has plenty of fun for short bursts of high score chasing.
  2. A fun collection ofmini-games complicated by a pointless gimmick.

    Ultimately, charm and high replayability trump the sometimes-awkward controls. [Aug 2011, p.89]

    Two pens = double the fun? Not really, because while the seven sports seem indeed well chosen, in practice they nevertheless lack variety.

    A collection of sporting mini-games that, while initially entertaining, prove far too simple and lifeless.

    If you're a big fan of minigame collections, it's a decent title to pick up after the price drops.

    DualPenSports is a misguided attempt at starting a 3DS franchise based on a technically and practically ineffective gimmick.
