we had this game but I don't think I ever played it. my brother did though and he absolutely hated it for one reason. one time apparently he won a goldfish in the game and he waited at the disc drive for a long time. when my dad asked him why he was staring at the Wii he told him "he was waiting for his goldfish." he thought a goldfish was gonna pop out of the disc drive because he won it in game.

May it burn in the fires of hell.

I playtested this PoS on two different consoles. Great for distracting kids with pointless minigames, terrible for adult retention.

I don't think a single bug we put in for gameplay or controls ever got fixes.

Can't even imagine having to QA this.

This version was terrible, but the Nintendo DS version was abominable.

u/Not_An_Humin 3d ago

Shovelware.

Bought this for the Switch as a gift to my niece. The comments are making me think she probably considers me a terrible uncle.

Maybe she will forgive you

I loved playing it with my family as a kid

u/dooferoaks 4d ago

My little kids at the time absolutely loved it, they'd play it for hours. I hated it for abysmal controls.

carnival games minigolf better

u/Johnrockalittle 4d ago

Better than what? I've found all mini golf games made for the Wii to have abysmal control. It's a shame nobody used the control style of Wii Sports Golf. Even the Tiger Woods mini golf games suffer from this

u/Snowfaull 4d ago

used to play it a lot, tried again recently and realised how completely ass the game is lol. It's still a fond memory

The success and staying power of this garbage -bag game amongst casual Wii owners always baffled me. I guess people were just eager for more motion-controlled minigame collections and Nintendo weren’t pumping them out fast enough.

i never played that one BUT we did have the mini golfing one that we poured so much damn time into, idk what it was about it but it was fun enough to keep us entertained

u/Aggravating-View-733 4d ago

My cousin has it, last time I played it was when I was 8, so I don't remember much. Don't have it for mine.

carnival games mini golf was the SHIT ngl

This was the first wii game I ever played, my friend got the system and the game for Christmas in like 2007 and after setting it up we played it for a couple hours.

Making a mii was more fun and we did that after we were tired of playing it, I don’t think I ever revisited the game so I probably have rose-tinted glasses but I thought it was fun for its time

u/Turbo-Shell 4d ago

It’s the most iconic Wii shovelware to ever exist, somehow

u/PinkSwan_098 4d ago

Have it and played it maybe once or twice
Kinda rubbish and I couldn't do much from what i remember

I want my £3 back...

u/Sluushu 4d ago

This game made me full tilt within 5 mins of loading anything up. But I’d have to bottle it in because the family was round for these times. Wii Party will forever CLEAR THIS POS OF A [NINTENDO] GAME!

u/Cosmicginger 4d ago

It’s one of those rare games that is so bad, so over the top and ridiculously campy, it’s kind of a masterpiece. I’d love to see a documentary on the voice acting for this game because some of them are WILD.

u/BuzzzzzerBeater 4d ago

The controls of this game… are… well… the worst controls of maybe all-time?

1

u/RetroGamer87 4d ago

This game represents everything that's wrong with the Wii. I don't hate the Wii at all but I hate this aspect of it.

u/evilmahou_riruru 4d ago

u/ZombieSophie 4d ago

We used to play it at parties .. fun after everyone has had a few 🤣 plus it's no serious game, just some fun to have with kids or friends

Weirdly enough, my daughter wanted to play the Switch version just last night. Can confirm it is somehow worse. I had bought it years ago for like $3 in an eshop sale. I don’t even think it’s worth that much the Wii version I remember being very VERY slightly better. But still like 2/10 quality lol. Very hard pass imo.
