    Go Vacation's main problem is that its controls are, nine times out of ten, too unresponsive to make it any fun.

    Had Namco Bandai polished the controls in Go Vacation and slapped a $29 price tag on the box, I'd recommend a used copy. Unfortunately, the game is not something worth playing.

    When I played Go Vacation I heard the ticking clock of my life, eating up the hours as I struggled with the pointless mini-games. You can avoid this. For me it's too late.

While some of the mini-games are less than perfect, that does not matter: if you have (medium) small children they will love this, and they can quickly play without any need for supervision. My kids have played this more than all our other Wii games put together.… Full Review »

Many memoriesThis game still has a place in my heart after many years. It is the main reason I remember my childhood and childhood friends. Many memories were created by playing minigames with my friends or just exploring the huge map and uncovering secrets. I even remember getting up late at night just to play this game. The game did have a couple of problems, like the camera, but just the fun someone can have by playing this game with their friends overrides the problems.… Full Review »
