Let's Tap
By Bill (R&D, SpecialEffect)
Wii - Sega/Prope
'No complicated controls...Just Tap! Place the Wii Remote on a flat surface and tap your fingers to race friends, launch fireworks, soar through space and tap to the beat in five unique multiplayer party games.'
Let's Tap offers a new way of interacting with the Wii remote. As the title suugests, you control the games using tapping. The Wiimote is placed on a surface (two card boxes are provided and require only light tapping), you then tap this surface which sends the vibrations to the Wiimote motion sensors. The menus can also be accessed using tapping, with one tap moving selction on to the next option and two taps selecting.

Link's Crossbow Training

Wii - Nintendo
The game comes packaged with a Zapper attachment, which positions the wiimote and nunchuck into a comfortable position for gameplay. To aim your crosshair use the optical sensor and to turn direction point it to the left or right furthermost edges of the screen. For some activities you also need to move your position, which is done using the thumbstick on the nunchuck.

Sports Island 2
By Bill (R&D, SpecialEffect)
Wii - Hudson
Whilst it may find it hard to get a look in with the release of
Wii Sports Resort, Sports Island 2 does, however, offer some
worthwhile entertaining activities. Kendo doesn’t compare
favourably to the accuracy of Sports Resort sword fightin and
many of the controls for the other activities can prove fiddly
such as Dodgeball’s timed button presses. Petanque, however,
offers a nice instinctive use of the ‘Wiimote’, with it’s simple
aiming and throwing controls.

Wii Sports Resort
By Bill (R&D, SpecialEffect)
Wii - Nintendo
Finally, a game to rival the original 'Wii Sports.' Now we have lots more sports to try our hand with the added accuracy of control, which the 'Wii motion plus' offers (packaged with the game). A good initial assessment of this is the excellent sword fighting, where you can make subtle movements and angles to block or strike your opponent to knock them of the podium and into the water. Skydiving allows you (in a surprisingly relaxing activity) to fly through the sky creating formations and forming routines.

Carnival Funfair Games
By Bill (R&D, SpecialEffect)
Wii -2K Play
‘Experience all the fun and excitement of the funfair.’ A bit hit and miss (excuse the pun), ‘Carnival: Funfair Games’ offers more than 25 different games including a shooting gallery, a dunk tank and test your strength. Most of the games are quick and easy to pick up and some don’t require any buttons just the motion of the wiimote, which allows for ease of playability and more intuitive controls, such as Alley Ball, Frog Leap and Spilled Milk.

Emergency Heroes
By Bill (R&D, SpecialEffect)
Wii - Ubisoft
‘Become a real life Hero – Drive the coolest Hi – Tech rescue vehicles to save your city.’ If you don’t let the cheesiness get to you in the story mode version of this game there is a lot of fun to be had chasing villains and putting out fires in futuristic vehicles.
