    Jerry Rice and Nitus' Dog Football is a great choice for kids who love both sports and animals.

    And while I'm sure many Wii owners will dismiss this title outright – solidified in their cynicism against the system and against Nintendo here in the console's final days – I've decided just to kick back, relax, and finally embrace the Wii for the aberration it is.

    Forgive the game's ruff edges and pug ugly looks and you'll find there's a fair amount of fun in this barking mad idea. [Nov 2011, p.68]

The selling point of this game has got to be the graphics I mean the graphics still hold up to this day I mean I could literally only watch gameplay of this for my entire life and the graphics would still be 100/100 compared to future games. We can only hope that all other gaming companies see the value in dog foot ball or all hope for man kind is gone.… Full Review »

    -Awesome company (Judobaby)

    There are a few things about this game that make it truly worth a high rating:
    1. The "Pick up and play" appeal- While it may appear to be just another 3rd party Wii game, it is one of the few that really takes advantage of the "easy-to-play" aspect of the system. If you're looking for a serious, competitive, detailed game, look elsewhere. If you're looking for a game that anyone can play and enjoy, this is it. The controls are incredibly simple, so there is essentially no learning curve.
    2. Pretty much everything you see/hear is very entertaining (the loading screen is a crab juggling with a rag-timey piano playing in the background). There are loads of hilariously cringe-worthy puns, and you get to hear Jerry Rice say every one of them. Plus, each character has their own set of somewhat random words that they shout out at the line of scrimmage.
    3. Did I mention the juggling crab?
    4. Judobaby provided me with one of my all-time greatest customer service experiences. My friends and I encountered a problem that we didn't know how to address, and emailed Judobaby at the address provided on their website. Instead of an automated response or a CS rep, I received a reply from the CEO of the company. He told me that he hadn't heard of this particular problem before, but he would attempt to recreate it on his end. Long story short, he was very accommodating and stopped at nothing to find the solution to our problem.    … Full Review »
