Pauline M #1044!!

Woohoo! On Tuesday, November 8th Happy Feet Two, the videogame, will be available in stores everywhere! This will be available on Nintendo Wii, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS.

Now, if you don’t know much about this game, let me explain it to you..

This is a musical adventure game great for the whole family! Even grandma can do it!! Woot! This is inspired by the whimsical Antarctic world of the upcoming animated film Happy Feet Two. 

In the game, new dangers are threatening the penguin nation, and it’s going to take everyone working – and dancing – together to save them all from extinction.  Players use dance moves to recruit penguins with unique abilities that help advance the adventure, stun opponents and enemies, as well as manipulate the environment around them to solve co-operative puzzles. Sounds like a blast to me!!

Wii Adventure Game: Go Vacation (Review)

By ·

 

My son is just getting started playing video games. Though his time is limited on playing games, he just loves to be able to play them from time to time!

We recently received a new game called Go Vacation from NAMCO BANDAI Games America It is a Wii Adventure game and my 5-year-old just loves it. Now,  he can’t really play this alone, as I have to read what it says to him, but everything else on the game, he knows how to do!

From skateboarding and rollerblading to surfing and boating! It is so adventure filled and lots of fun. I enjoy watching him play it! My son also wanted me to tell you all that you can make friends too! And once you are friends with them, they will follow you everywhere  and copy what you do! In real life, that would be annoying, but playing the game it is fun!

My sons favorite parts of this game are finding new friends and skating, those are his exact words :) He is always asking me if he can play it, and when he gets to, it is hard to pull him away. Oh, and you can also get a doggy! Nothing like having a mans best friend by your side!!

My favorite part of this game is the snow-capped mountains and skiing!! You can ski down mountains and ride on the ski lifts! The characters are fun and you can choose your character and what you want him/her to look like at the beginning of the game. And, of course, you can name them!

Go Vacation gives gamers the option to take part in heated street races, relaxing fishing excursions and pulse-pounding skydiving sessions and more—all accessed by actually visiting each location in-game instead of simply choosing them from a menu.  With support for a whole suite of Wii hardware accessories, including the Wii Balance Board, the Wii Zapper and Wii MotionPlus, every activity offers a fun and natural control scheme that allows gamers to easily jump in and play.

So, this game really is action packed and I think, would be fun for any family member.

Some Features:

  • The Ultimate Family Vacation Spot – Kawawii Island has 4 unique resort locales featuring dozens of activities for the whole family
  • Great for the Whole Family ? Fun for up to 4 players, cooperatively or competitively, with over 100 ways to play the many activities on the island
  • Many Ways to Play – A fully featured game that includes support for the Wii Motion Plus, Wii Zapper Light Gun, and the Wii Balance Board to really get into the action
  • It’s a Real Vacation – All the fun and relaxation and none of the planning required. Snap photos and send to your friends, explore the island, partake in the resort lifestyle anytime you need a break
  • Jam Packed with Fun – More activities then you’ll know what to do with. Ride jet skis, race cars, play beach volleyball, hang glide, fish, surf, scuba dive, skate, snowboard, miniature golf, sky dive, horseback riding, play carnival games, and much more

Buy!

You can purchase online at Amazon.com for only $36.99 right now!!

Sesame Street: Elmo’s A-to-Zoo Adventure Wii Game Giveaway!

By ·

CONTEST OVER! CONGRATS TO

Anne Brooks #25

Gotta love Elmo, but gotta love him more in a Wii game!! Talk about fun times when you pop this game into the Wii console. My kids AND me have a blast playing it!! Sesame Street: Elmo’s A-to-Zoo Adventure is fun, engaging and teaches your kids too! All wrapped up into one! SCORE!

Now, young kids and parents can learn and play video games together with their favorite characters from Sesame Street! The game encourages early math and literacy skills that engage preschoolers in a fun and exciting way. This enables them to learn at their own pace with easy tools for parents to guide them through their experiences.

In Sesame Street Elmo’s A-to-Zoo Adventure, kids head to the zoo with Elmo, Zoe and their animal friends, as they explore games based on a variety of literacy skills, including letter identification, letter sounds and word families. Kids can also explore exciting zoo habitats including the Aquarium, Savanna, Jungle, Wetlands and the Arctic, (this is my kids favorite part!).

This is such a neat game! If you use it for the Wii (you can also purchase it for the Nintendo DS), the gameplay helper is a soft and fuzzy character cover with special grips that slips over the Wii Remote! This minimizes unnecessary buttons and makies it easier and more fun to hold for the little ones. For Nintendo DS, there is a jumbo click stylus designed for smaller hands, simplifying interaction with the touch screen. So, it is comfy for the kids no matter what system or console you use!

Buy It!

You can purchase this game online at Amazon.com!
