Fun, but if you're not obsessed with your heart rate, the original's similar - and cheaper. [Jan 2011, p.78]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

Get Rytmik instead, because it's much easier to get the hang of that. [Mar 2011, p.105]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

- Critic Score
Horrible to look at, has utterly bland levels and it's basically inferior in every way to the similar game "T-Rex Rumble," which is also available on DSiWare. [Mar 2011, p.105]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK
Posted Mar 6, 2011 -

A very limited on-rails shooter that just gets boring after you've played it for about 15 minutes or so. [Mar 2011, p.105]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

Here's a crazy idea for you: just buy a pen and some paper instead. [Mar 2011, p.105]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

Basic stuff, but if you like solving tangrams it's a good way to get hold of loads of them. [Mar 2011, p.104]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

Fun multiplayer partly makes up for lousy solo play. You'll need some willing chums. [Mar 2011, p.104]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

Impressive for 10 minutes or so, but it lacks any replay value whatsoever. [Mar 2011, p.104]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

Buggy and samey, but it has a charm that'll keep you interested for a few minutes. [Mar 2011, p.104]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

Some interesting bits of "art," but it's pointless as they're freely available elsewhere. [Mar 2011, p.103]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

Worth a look, so long as you don't mind paying a little extra for a fairly basic idea. [Mar 2011, p.103]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

Addictive and good for a quick play, but there isn't much to it and the price is too high. [Mar 2011, p.102]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

It's a nice idea, but it's very limited in what you're able to create. What a shame. [Mar 2011, p.102]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

A beautiful refinement of a great series. Game Freak has surpassed itself - the best Pokemon ever. [Mar 2011, p.87]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

It'll take you mere minutes to complete, but the dark, oily stain that it leaves on your conscience will take years to fully cleanse. [Feb 2011, p.97]- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

It's not a bad game by any means. Fans of the series will still enjoy it but don't expect the same insane difficulty that makes the other games so engrossing.- Official Nintendo Magazine UK

Let's face it, there's probably many Wii owners who don't actually use their Wii online and probably don't even know about the Virtual Console service. For these people, this is their first chance to play the Mario games they knew and loved 20 years ago. They're still as good as we remember them...- Official Nintendo Magazine UK
