    I don't understand the hate. Done. Word said.

    Very fun once you get the hang of it. Although there are some flaws, baseball is very fun to play with multiplayer. Also the racing is sort of like Mario Kart but less good. The game also uses the gamepad in a way that isn't TOO gimmicky (but anything that uses the gamepad is at least somewhat gimmicky).

    Insanely long loading times. [Feb 2013, p.76]

    Sports Connection tries to ride the Wii Sports-esque wave of success. It fails horribly at doing so, it isn't even fun. Graphics and sound are weak, loading times are too long, the handling simply isn't accurate ... in short: This isn't the party game you're looking for.

    Absolute dross: a joyless, inept, tedious, ugly, lazy, messy waste of your time and money. We hoped games this bad might die out with the Wii.
