    I don't understand any of the reviews. 1000 points is too steep? Online adds nothing to the experience? What? This is a great game, and for only 10 bucks, it's well worth it.

    Great game. Just like I remember for the NES. Also love the online battle mode. Always gives me somebody new/more challanging to compete against. Don't like the pointer version. They should not of messed with a good thing. That does not stop me from playing the traditional game constantly... A Must for any classic gamer!!!!

    I don't understand the low reviews. This is exactly like Tetris for DS (except 20 bucks cheaper) and Tetris DS was lauded by critics. Over-priced? Huh?

    For a puzzle game, this gets a 10. Just as charming and addictive as when I had it for my original B&W gameboy. Good times!

    So great. This game is as addictive as ever - and now it rules even more because you can play people online. The old FEVER song gets stuck in your had as usual, and you'll be dreaming of falling pills ... but it's worth it.

    We love this game. Two of us love the old skoll Doc Mario, while another digs the Virus Buster. I love how the Miis twist along too. The online matches are fun except I keep losing but I can't really blame the game for that. The one thing I did not like was the lack of 2 player options to play with or without trash dumps to the other player. It also would be nice if it kept track of We love this game.

I should give it a 10 anyway because it is good and it is only $10, but I'm not.… Expand

    I love dr. Mario and for only 10 bucks this game is well worth it. Virus buster is really fun and it still has that awesome music dr. has always had..

    The addition of the Virus Buster is a nice addition, but the Nintendo 64 version of the game is far superior with better graphics, music and more mode. This version only has 2 player mode, the N64 has 4. One step forward, two steps back.

    A solid version of the classic puzzler Dr. Mario for a good price. Online multiplayer is included, along with a twist on the original making use of the Wii Remote motion controls. The graphics and music are heavily inspired by the Nintendo 64 edition, but with a polished look and feel appropriate on Wii. Addictive fun!

    Sadly this game no longer exist in Nintendo's world so there is no point to come back to this game except the DS version, but the game was fine

    It's certainly a decent enough block-dropping puzzler, even if most people probably would've preferred Tetris. Or a Virtual Console release for the SNES Dr Mario and Tetris compilation. Either way, 1000 Points feels a bit steep.

    For a title that has been away from our screens for far too long, Dr Mario is an excellent revival of a classic puzzle game and a decent WiiWare launch game.
