"Shaking the nunchuk to make Mario perform a spin move feels a bit pointless"

Sorry but it's not pointless at all, its intuitive, it helps muppets like me who always forget what button does what. If I want Mario to spin, I shake my controller and he performs the same sort of motion.

Sure, SOME controls are tacked on and pointless, but that was a bad example, in my opinion anyway.

Anyway, you shake the Wiimote not the Nunchuk :)

"I don't care for Super Mario Galaxy" - Heretic!

Anyway, this sounds great. Oh and congrats on being allowed to review a good game ;)

I found it silly - not pointless as such, but more an obvious work around for the fact there aren't enough buttons. Using gestures for the sort of stuff which requires immediacy introduces unnecessary delay and recognition factors. Would much rather just press a button.

Got this at the weekend. It's one of the most fun and original games I've played for absolutely ages.

>My arm hurts from playing it last night. It's like Wii Sports injuries all over again.

You need to do a bit more exercise...

Who would have thunk it, from EA of all devs. Fair play, keep up the good work!

Have played this game for the last few days. The single player is great fun and while a few levels are a bit irritating, its still worth giving it a go. (where else can you be happy making a tower of blocks fall that takes out 5 sheep and cows in the process) The game really comes into its own in multiplayer. Its right up there with Wii Sports for pick up / play and getting non-gamers involved. There is lots of variation too in the multiplayer levels and the sample bag works well to mix things up. Not tried the level editor yet.

I'd agree its probably not worth £40 but if you have any friends :P I'd say its well worth £30 from the on-line retailers
