    A perfectly enjoyable games for small kids - my daugher (8) and son (5) love exploring the resorts, riding horses, driving cars, skate- and snowboarding with the simple controls and enjoyable and varied scenery.

My kids have played this more than all our other Wii games put together.… Expand

    This is still one of my favorite games of all time and always will be. I've played this game for over 2,000 hours and it never gets old. Over 50 games of pure greatness is held here. The fact that this game got a sequel is amazing. I remember exploring for too long that i even forget to play some games. I recommend getting this game. It's an adventure that you will never forget.

    Just wandering around the hub world in this game is better than any of the minigames. Amazing atmosphere.

    Man, the joy i had playing this game with my cousin. The feeling that flows through you, from jetskiing, to snowboarding. It has its flaws, anyone who has played the game can tell you that. Its basically the Wii Sports everybody wanted.

    Go Vacation is yet another Wii Sports wannabe, but one with plenty of content. The mission structure means the game is actually playable on your own, even if it obviously works best with friends.

    For families looking to have a good time with their Wii's this winter, I highly recommend taking a trip to Kawawii Island with Go Vacation. It may is not the best sounding or the prettiest game out there but Go Vacation packs in a wealth of fun for every member of the family.

    Another mini-game collection designed for young children and families. With Go Vacation, Namco Bandai tried to make something different, but they forgot one main ingredient in the recipe: the fun.
