By Stephen Totilo Control Options Galore: You can play this game with the Wii Zapper and try it in co-op. I preferred a Remote and Nunchuk set-up, minus the Zapper. You aim your targeting reticule with the Remote and pull the Remote's trigger to fire. I could change weapons on the d-pad but preferred using the an...

By Russ Frushtick Power-Up Variety I wish there was a little more variety in the power-ups for "New Super Mario Bros. Wii." As it is, the only brand new power-up is the penguin costume (gives Mario the ability to slide across water and throw ice balls), while the others have appeared in previous Mario games.

By Nicholas Deleon Whether or not this is the best Mario game to date is purely a matter of personal tastes; it’s certainly the most humble on outward appearances.

By hattrick A key component included in Spore Hero is local multiplayer battle. This allows you and a friend to fight in a 3D Street Fighter-type arena.

By Stephen Totilo What they'd tell you in a catalog is that Dead Space Extraction is the Wii prequel to last year's PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 sci-fi horror hit Dead Space.

By Peter Ha Again, I hate to make direct comparisons to the other big boy consoles, but High Voltage really hit it out of the park for multiplayer mode. Sure, it pales in comparison to what we’re used to on the Xbox 360, but The Conduit’s multiplayer on the Wii kicks some serious ass.

By Chris Schilling Wii Sports Resort represents a difficult balancing act - it’s a game which has to sell MotionPlus to the masses, convince the core gamer of both its value as a peripheral in its own right and its potential for future titles - especially in the wake of Natal and Sony’s new motion wand - and to he...

By Chris Kohler Mario Kart Wii includes the Wii Wheel controller (right), a plastic shell that you insert the Wiimote into.

By David Hinkle While it's quite comical when the cursor is changed during cutscenes to funny shapes such as a mustache, allowing you to make a few jokes at the game's characters' expense, none of the game's controls feel suited to the Wii.
