    The idea behind this game is to features the Wii MotionPlus controller's new capabilities. Unfortunately, Wii Play: Motion does not even entirely deliver in that department. Noticed a few annoying glitches while playing 3 or 4 games out of the 12 included.

Having played all Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort and it's younger brother, Wii Play, I can say without a doubt that this sequel is the weakest of all four. I got a "been there, done that" feeling when playing the first time and none of the games made me want to come back for more. Despite the fact that you'll probably get bored of solo play within the first hour of gaming, if you can find a group of friends to play along, there's still a good amount of fun you can get with this bundle. In a nutshell, buy this bundle for the remote, not the game and enjoy whatever fun it gives you but don't expect to be amazed this time around.… Expand

    Better than the original Wii Play, but it still doesn't achieve the pick up and play feel of Wii Party and Wii Sports.

    I haven't played too much of this game, but I have seen enough to know that I basically feel the same for this one as I do for the first Wii Play, just without the nostalgia. It's still a good choice for Wii owners, just remember to have a Wii mote that has a Motion Plus attachment or one that has it already built in.

    A really cool game to play with friends or family. If you’re alone this is not fun and gets boring with time, but with multiple players it’s still real fun, even in 2021 ! for me it’s the #2 best party game behind wii party. Oh and yes only 10$ with wii remote bundle, real worth it !

    Given the price point for Wii Play Motion, $49.99 it's tough to recommend the title if you're not in the market for another Wii Remote. But if you don't have the Wii Motion+ adapter, just need another remote or are getting the hankering to try out some newer minigames to help flesh out your next Wii party, then this is a solid acquisition, as long as you know what you're getting.

    Motion is surprisingly good party game. Besides shaking, Nintendo has invented other uses for wiimote. This is harmless casual fun, which can be used to replace board games or extremely dull holiday photograph marathon. [Aug 2011]

    Destined to make a lesser impact than the original, but it's still and improvement. [Oct 2011, p.97]
