    Happy Birthday Mart is not concerned with entertaining the player. On the surface, it looks like a potentially enjoyable children's game, but it will only frustrate kids with its slow pace and ambiguous structure.

    AquaSpace's biggest selling point was the ability to swim with your Mii character, and it is a shame that that part turned out to be such a disappointment. For just 100 Wii Points less, My Aquarium is a much more enjoyable fish tank simulator.

    Pop Island: Paperfield is great value at 200 points, especially for those who own the original. It is easy to make the assumption that it is a bite-sized edition of the first game, but it is more akin to an expansion pack, throwing new stages and vehicles into the mix.

    30 different variations on the activity will keep gamers occupied for quite some time and the addition of peg solitaire is just icing on the cake. In short, this is the definite handheld version of solitaire.

    Dragon Quest IX is a fantastic game, and it is easily the best new traditional RPG to grace the DS.

    Despite its promise of being a visually-detailed fighting game that uses all of Wii's assets to the fullest, Tournament of Legends can best be described as a painfully average title.

    The puzzle platforming design is very clever while never becoming too frustrating for the player.

    Hello Flowerz is a very laid-back game. It's a game you will want to pick up for a few minutes and then put it away until tomorrow.

    Red Sun Rising is one of the better WiiWare games released yet, assuming you can adjust to the game's awkward style of controls.

    If tower defense games are your thing, look no further than this.

    LEGO Harry Potter's DS debut has a good foundation, decent gameplay, and tons of content.

    The end result is a slower-moving game with plenty to see and do.

    When everything is said and done, Jett Rocket is one of the best WiiWare, even if it does suffer from a couple of shortcomings. Those who get past the short length of the game will find a great adventure with plenty of variety.

    The gameplay can be repetitive at times, but when you have a few friends around, that is when the game really starts to shine.

    Players who love incrementally improving their best score should not hesitate to buy what is one of the best retail-released shooters in recent memory.

    Puzzle Quest 2 doesn't have the fresh, "gotta-try-it" feeling of the original title, but for those who enjoyed the ideas behind Puzzle Quest but weren't thrilled with the execution, this sequel is a no-brainer purchase. It feels like a breath of fresh air…relentlessly addictive fresh air.

    Cybertron Adventures has way too many problems to be worth your time. The lackluster and unstable gameplay make the whole experience unfufilling.
    • 70 Metascore

    The good does outshine the bad in Origins 2, just not enough to make it worth most people's while.

    Wipeout: The Game is a great game for young audiences, though for more seasoned gamers, it will most likely not fill their hunger. The game takes only a couple of hours to complete, and its difficulty level is appropriate for young children.

    The game never overwhelms its players, and while it may be a little easy and short, I Spy Universe is a great piece of software for all demographics of gamers, but especially for young children.

    Most titles are more suited to adults, such as A Midsummer Night’s Dream (which involves the mix-up of Athenian lovers), but more mature children looking for a great read may get some enjoyment of the title as well.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Arcade Sports had a lot of potential, but the frustrating control schemes result in a disappointing experience. Considering that all of the game's sports have been done better elsewhere, it is pretty hard to justify a purchase.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Green Day: Rock Band is a well-presented game, but unless you're a Rock Band junkie or a die-hard fan of the band there isn't much of a reason to pick it up. Still, it's tough to deny the game's merits even if you don't care for the subject matter.

    The MMZ Collection is a great value, as there are four games here that will last you a really long time.

    The Career mode is virtually unchanged from last year's game outside of the Ryder Cup.

    Were the controls, use of characters, and game variety given a boost in quality, Manic Monkey Mayhem could potentially warrant its 800 Wii Point ($8) price tag. With no such improvements in sight, Manic Monkey Mayhem is a WiiWare game to avoid.
    • 98 Metascore

    It is the truest sequel Nintendo has produced in over a decade.

    The Forgotten Sands is a good game, but it's really just more of the same if you've played a recent entry in the Prince of Persia series. The Wii additions aren't essential, boiling down to basic Wii Remote pointer control.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Trauma Team is definitely the most accessible game in Trauma Center's history. With an overwhelming amount of variety, an awesome presentation, and solid gameplay, Trauma Team isn't just the best game in the series; it's also one of the best games on Wii.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    BIT.TRIP RUNNER is a feast for the eyes and ears, and its gameplay is very inspired. However, the lack of checkpoints makes things more frustrating than they should be, but if you loved the earlier BIT.TRIP games, then RUNNER shouldn't be missed.
