Not so much a sequel as the Cube version with new features, but still essential for anyone happy to start again.

The best Art Style game and a great WiiWare puzzler. [Jan 2009, p.101]

Great handling and superb graphics. [Nov 2009, p.99]

An essential purchase at a great price. As long as you don't own Drill Spirits, this is superb. [June 2010, p.94]

It handles well, it looks decent, but there's not an awful lot for you to do here. [Oct 2010, p.96]

The best football game currently on 3DS. [Feb 2012, p.104]

As a first attempt at Wii MotionPlus controls this is a decent effort, but it's not quite the definitive article. [July 2009, p.88]

A nice idea, but progress is too easy, and high scores are too tricky. [Christmas 2010, p.93]

Picross DS is still the best version of the game, but for those new to Picross this is a brilliant introduction.

More of the same, but with pirates instead of Jedi. Fun for fans of the series.

With control issues and the disappointing lack of online co-operative play aside, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance is a mindless and enjoyable action game that should keep comic book fans happy for a while. [Jan 2007, p.70]

A cash-in that should have been much cheaper, especially when "World Tour" is just over the horizon. [Aug 2008, p.84]

Anniversary is the best game in the series by far. [Christmas 2007, p.72]

It's not motion-sensing genius but Metal Slug doesn't have to be. It's the craziest, most action-packed shooter ever and there's room for games like this outside the Virtual Console. [Apr 2007, p.87]

Mobilized is a technically impressive game that should provide you with plenty of entertainment for a while, and there's also the small matter of online multiplayer for up to six players once you're done. There are some annoying control niggles but if you can get over those you should have fun.

At times, it's one of the best-looking games on Wii - it swims in its own painterly style, and the Disney-grade animation lends every motion some real punch. If you look past its shortcomings as an admittedly un-epic platformer, you'll see that Epic Mickey is a deep game with explicit replay value and immense character.

If you're after a nostalgia trip this is perfect. [Apr 2009, p.80]

More of the same, a little bit tougher and a little more lame. It's a fiendish, addictive, intelligent game, but if you find yourself cursing, you know who to blame.

A sensational racer, it's far more polished than most full-price racers on Wii. [Aug 2011, p.102]

Fans of dancing games won't be disappointed. [June 2008, p.74]

A brave attempt at combining two very different types of gameplay. [Nov 2007, p.84]

A great turn-based game for younger players who may get confused and bogged down with more serious RPGs. [Jan 2009, p.100]

Old flaws remain and no online play, but it's still compulsive and challenging. [Apr 2011, p.92]

A great tower defence strategy game that'll certainly get the grey matter going. [Oct 2009, p.86]

Designing your own gaming world has so much potential, sadly let down by limited vision and scope. It doesn't help that the gameplay is about as exciting as our bank statements. [Dec 2007, p.86]

It looks cute and sounds great, but it takes too long to grasp its mechanics. [Oct 2010, p.93]

This is undoubtedly a well thought-out handheld port, but it's still slightly lacking for the changes. One for the kids. [March 2013, p.68]

A decent game. [Christmas 2010, p.83]
