    It would be great if all the buttons were accessible and you didn't have to use a D-pad. [May 2011, p.59]

    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A solid mix of platforming and virtual-pet raising, but with a bit too much step-retracing. [May 2011, p.57]

    This repetitive title somehow manages to make dinos seem dull. [May 2011, p.56]

    Weeks of content, if you can put up with the crappy half. [May 2011, p.52]

    • 55 Metascore
    • 35 Critic Score
    It's like someone reduced Super Mario Bros to its essence, then skimmed the fun off the top. [May 2011, p.51]

    • 40 Critic Score
    An oldie but a goodie. Alas, also a shortie. [May 2011, p.50]

    It's not great. [May 2011, p.48]
    • 81 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    It looks and sounds good, but it's as shallow and frustrating as a conversation with Louie Spence. [Apr 2011, p.79]

    • 35 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    A most cynical and worthless package. [Apr 2011, p.78]

    • 66 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    As a throwaway arcade game this is mildly entertaining, and nicely priced. [Apr 2011, p.78]

    • 55 Critic Score
    Turn the sound down and you may get a few hours' fun out of this one. [Apr 2011, p.75]

    • 55 Metascore

    Too hard for kids and too dull for adults. [Apr 2011, p.75]

    The kids will probably love it, mind. [Apr 2011, p.74]

    • 75 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    It's a platformer with a lot of heart. [Apr 2011, p.74]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 52 Metascore
    • 49 Critic Score
    Too basic to be much fun. [Apr 2011, p.74]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 85 Metascore

    Fun story and great combat. [Apr 2011, p.73]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 61 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    It's basically a history lesson meets the X-Men, and every bit as goofy as that sounds. [Apr 2011, p.70]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 68 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    The ultimate in fantasy warfare, and a great port from Other Formats, too. [Apr 2011, p.64]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 54 Metascore
    • 51 Critic Score
    Shame the developers don't feel Wii owners are able to handle the "proper" Top Spin, though. [Apr 2011, p.61]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 67 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    We'd wait for the more assured Lego Pirates instead. [Apr 2011, p.60]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 43 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    This is the other one - the one that's quite crap. [Apr 2011, p.60]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 75 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Gorgeous, detailed, super-fast and loveably mad. [Apr 2011, p.58]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 85 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Lacking only an RPG mode and the option to wander off into the woods and play a Duck Hunt minigame. [Apr 2011, p.55]

    • 78 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    This is the Dragon Quest that we know and love. [Apr 2011, p.54]

    • 55 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Monkey Ball has grown flabby and gutless. A real shame. [Apr 2011, p.52]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 58 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's good while it lasts. [Apr 2011, p.48]
    • 48 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    It's no Layton, but puzzle-fiends might find it's worth a try of it's spotted cheap. [Aug 2010, p.72]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 77 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Hideously addictive, it's the kind of game that'll have you replaying missions in your sleep. If you like Advance Wars or Fire Emblem, this is the 3DS game for you.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    A loveless port of a timeworn platformer, which lacks any artistic or creative reason to exist. Do we even need to tell you to wait for Mario 3DS?
