    This is the kind of game that makes Wiiware a worthwhile feature, and shows that good hardcore games can be made for the system in any size.

    Four players, over 50 levels and some addicting gameplay make this a game we love seeing as gamers.

    Gyrostarr is pretty, simplistic, and straight-forward.
