At SpecialEffect we have got a lot of mileage out of the original Carnival Funfair Games on the Wii through our various projects. With it's simple and intuitive gameplay style, many of the mini games are instantly engaging and fun.

As previously, the fairground is divided into different areas each with a group of funfair challenges which can be played between one and four players. All of the games only require the use of the Wiimote without the nunchuck and can be played with or without the Wii motion plus and with just one hand and sat down.

Wii-mote Controllers - D.I.Y. Accessibility Hacks
By One Switch
When the Nintendo Wii was released in 2006, it's Wii Remote (or Wiimote as I prefer to wrongly call it) was hailed as revolutionary.
It certainly did open up gaming for many people who previously found the likes of a Sony Playstation Joy-pad far too complicated. Unfortunately, it closed the door on a lot of people too, such as accessibility switch users.
The good news for some of those excluded players, is that there are ways to adapt the Wii remote to make it a bit more accessible.

Another Code R: A Journey into Lost Memories
By BillGameBase
Wii - Cing/Nintendo
'Read and Solve like a Mystery
Novel!'
The game plays like a mixture between playing a point and click
adventure game and reading a 'Whodunnit?' There is a lack of
quick reactions or complicated co-ordination or dexterity
required by the gameplay.
Much of the gameplay involves talking to people to gain
information and clues to help solve the mystery of Ashley's
mother's death. The interaction with objects and people aswell as
movement around the game involves pointing the Wiimote at area of
the screen and pressing the 'A' button to select
them.
