I love the RRR games too (especially TV Party) but trust me, I highly recommend you get Wii Party if you're into social gaming/party games.KnucklesSonic8http://www.wiiloveit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884169422383528093.post-57661398430764231412010-11-06T18:37:26.881-04:002010-11-06T18:37:26.881-04:00Yeah, this is another one I'm keeping an eye o...Yeah, this is another one I'm keeping an eye out on. My family loves these kinds of games (Rabbits, Mario Party, etc) - and the reviews have been pretty good overall so far, but I'm a bit surprised that the tallies haven't been a bit higher myself.Chalgyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10879608925209948366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884169422383528093.post-24505315229158963402010-11-06T02:06:41.515-04:002010-11-06T02:06:41.515-04:00@Anonymous from November 5:

It's for house parties and some of the games (hot potato) must be played with other people who are phyiscally able to interact with out.<br /><br />Balance board support could only be used on mini games that were strickly one person at a time and would be annoying to have to drag it out for the rare mini as they are almost or entire all multiplayer minis.<br /><br />WM+ would either split the minis into two camps (dos and don'ts) or would have to work with both. As it's unrealistic to expect anyone, let alone everyone to have 4 WM+ controllers, so it makes little sense to include anyway.<br /><br />Wii Party isn't like RRR. It's like a board game with minigames when you land somewhere. It's intended for longer plays (although can be done in short bursts), more people and is a game you'd normally only play when you have casual company over. <br /><br />The fact that it's at almost 10hrs on avg already and over 4 times played, in my books means people are playing it every time they have an excuse too (whenever company pops over). These results are highly encouraging and bumps it up in my 'to buy' listAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
