grand slam5
I ordered the wii grand slam sports pack as a Christmas present for my daughter. She's waited months to get this. I can't wait to see her face on Christmas morning when she opens her new wii grand slam sports pack.

OK, but not a must have1
The only reason I got it was because it came with a bundle that I thought I would have to buy before Wii became widely available again. With the tennis racket on, there is no way to set up the game, the signal is blocked but you can still play with it after it is set up. It is just easier playing without the raquet. The golf club is pointless. It's barely adds more than a foot to the remote. The bat is ok, but removing it to pitch is a pain. The wheel works but the B button on the botton is hard to reach while holding the wheel. The Nintendo wheel is so much nicer. We played rockpaperscissors to determine the loser who had to use this wheel. Not a must have. Put your money toward another game.

Wii Component Cable5
Works well. Have not had any problems during the three months that I have had it. Produces slightly better quality images than the composite cables that came with the Wii.

Don't overspend on this item5
I bought this cable after going to Best Buy in my neighborhood and seeing nothing under $40 for an HD cable. They wanted $64 for the MC version. Don't waste your money. This cable performs just as well for a much better price. If you are anything of a videophile you will notice the difference immediately. Highly recommended.

same as nintendo version5
it works great for my hd tv and is same as more expensive nintendo version

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock Bundle

From Activision Inc.

This is my favorite wii game that I've ever played. How does one describe Guitar Hero? True, if you have a 360 or PS3 I would recommend getting it for one of those, but only because you can't download more songs if you have the wii version - soon to change in GH World Tour though.

great game4
This is the first guitar hero game I have ever played. Great game, plenty of challenge. Just wish it had more music from earlier rock years.

age appropriate games 1
I ordered this game for my granddaughter who was turning 10. When I got the box and looked at it I decided that it really seemed inappropriate for her age. The tatooed, pierced singers on the box and the warning - at that point - that the words were sexually explicit were more than I could deal with for a just turning 10 year old. I wish there had been some sort of heads up in the description. I couldn't really say how much fun the game was because I didn't give it to her.

Great Product5
I bought this as a birthday gift for a family member. It was delivered in a timely fashion by Amazon with no damage.

The game was easy to assemble and learn to play. I only wish that they would create a Guitar Hero: Van Halen, Def Lepard or Rolling Stones edition. I am sure those are to follow.

I highly recommend it.

Nintendo Wii Guitar Hero World Tour - Guitar Kit
From Activision

Love it or hate it, Guitar Hero: World Tour is the prime musical odyssey for the Wii. Like the PS3 and 360 versions of Gh and Rock Band, this title on the Wii supports downloadable content. In addition, you're able to record your own songs and a freestyle mode enables the use of Mii's, and is easy for anyone to pick up and learn. Wii Points required in order to download most songs.

The game itself is fun but the guitar controller is lacking in quality2
I find the guitar hero brand of games very enjoyable. The game itself is very fun and has a huge selection of songs. The guitar controller has failed after 1 month. Maybe I got a lemon? The strum bar doesn't work anymore. I had other controllers that are 2 years old and still working fine. That is why I gave it only 1 star for this package. I give the game 4 stars but the controller is not made for the long haul.

Holy crow!5
So, hubby and I waited outside of Target at o'dark o-clock in the morning on Black Friday to get this game on sale. We were planning on getting a Wii, but didn't have one yet. We got the game, then caved into temptation (we'll get our parents presents LATER haha) and found a Wii later on that day. We hooked the system up, and for the rest of the holiday weekend, while hubby was at work, I proceeded to play this game for 8-9 hours straight every day. I LOVE THIS GAME!

Granted, I have no way of rating this to other versions of GH, but I am very impressed with the quality of this game. The audio is crisp, clear, and true to the original songs, and the visuals are awesome (I kept missing notes when I'd glance up to watch my character).

My only gripe is that the Star Power button is hard to use on the guitar that's included in the kit...I almost always miss a note when I'm trying to activate it...I get SO teed when I get THIS close to 100% and mess up!

For a beginner, I would highly recommend this game!!

This game rocks, depending on the song...4
I have to admit, I was skeptical when purchasing this game for the Wii. After seeing demos in game stores on the Xbox, I doubted the Wii could deliver the same experience. The over all graphics of the game are ok. For Wii standards I think they are pretty good. The menus look sharp and clean, the actual band performances however look like something from a PS2 or Xbox. But because I am so focused on the notes I have little time to gawk at the band on stage. Plus I don't have an HD cable connecting the Wii to my TV, so I am guessing that may be a factor as well.

This is like a necessity. The wii is great for multi player action so here's your second controller!!

Quite a few wii games need the nunchuck. So grab this right after that second controller.

A fun shooting game - don't be daunted by the T rating. My only complaint is that it was a little easy. It took me about fourty-five minutes to get to level eight.

definitely fun!5
This was the first game I bought after getting my Wii with Wii Sports. Having the Zapper definitely makes it easier to shot the targets. While the game play is not all that sophisticated it is a lot of fun and definitely showcases the features of the Wii Remote over other consoles.
PS: I also ordered the 'Wii Perfect Shot Gun' by Nyko but have not received it yet. Still looking for good shoting games.

its okay2
i got the gun because i wanted the feel of a gun for the diffrent shooter games zelda,resident evil,ect. and the gun does exactly what you would expect it to what i didnt like was the way your supposed to hold the gun it just doesnt feel right and like in resident evil your supposed to shake the gun to reload which can be difficult and it doesnt hide the cords at all wich get tangled up in you hand and whip you in the face when your trying to reload the weapon,as for the zelda game all i can say is boring and is only fun for the fist time you play it, recomend for kids

Zapper - OK, Link's Crossbow Traing - Boo!2
I have had problems with Link's Crossbow Training. Two different copies of the game have not worked on my Wii. As far as the actual Zapper goes, I haven't had much use for it yet. I recently ordered some of the Cabelas Hunting games that are compatible with the Zapper and look forward to using them. I feel like the Zapper and Link's Crossbow Training are way overpriced at $[...]. I would try to find them used for less money.

Product Description

With the Wii Zapper, your game shooting experience is guarenteed to take on a whole other dimension. Your Wii remote and nunchuck fit snugly into the Zapper, still working as well as before, only now in a shape that, when simulating the use of a weapon such as a gun or bow, allows for a steadier hand that is much less likely to get tired. Included with the Zapper is Link's Crossbow Training for the Wii, a clever and engaging shooting game set in the world of Twilight Princess that includes 27 different levels, several different game modes and multiplayer capability up to four people. Link's Crossbow Training is ESRB Rated T for Teen.

The Wii Remote Controller - wireless technology at its best5
I love my Wii remote controllers. I have three of them. The first two came with my Wii, and the third came with my Wii Play.

As far as batteries are concerned, rechargeable batteries are good. The charge station from Nyko is better.

Have a look at the photo of the product on this page. See the clear plastic case the remote is in? That's known as a remote jacket. You can order those, as well as replacement straps, on the nintendo website. Both can be had for free.

On a whole, the Wii remote controller outranks the controllers from Nintendo Entertainment System and Super Nintendo Entertainment System many times over.

Product Description

To make gaming as accessible to people of all ages and all abilities, Nintendo wanted to create a controller that was as inviting as it was sophisticated. The outcome is the Wii Remote. Nintendo fused the familiarity of a remote control with the sophistication of motion-sensing technology to come up with an input device for the ages!Sporting the size of a traditional remote control, the wireless Wii Remote is a multifunctional device that is limited only by the game designer's imagination. In a tennis game, it serves as your racket you swing with your arm. In a driving game, it serves as your steering wheel. For first-person shooters, the Wii Remote acts as your weapon that you point at an enemy. The list of potential uses goes on and on.In addition to its pointing and motion-sensing abilities, the Wii Remote also includes a speaker, rumble feature and expansion port for additional input devices, such as the Nunchuk.
