NC* Kidz Sports Ice Hockey (Wii) Review

[boedanik]

REVIEW NHL SLAPSHOT

[SiMgUrL1721]

Guess what guys? IGN gave this game a 1.0 abysmal rating. This game looks very abysmal to me anyways, and I would never ever buy it. IGN is really not that bad at all to be because I agree with IGN and Gamespot most of the time. Sometimes Gamespot is a tad more harsh than IGN. Most of the time, their scores are similar to each other anyways.

[SiMgUrL1721]

Oh my gosh. The graphics look absolutely atrocious. I'm glad I don't buy and cheap, crappy games for the Wii. Remember that decent games are usually more expensive in the first place. I usually buy Wii games that are the best sellers like Wii Sports Resort.

[korkiwi]

Your voice almost sounds like your holing your nose while you talk.

[cottonwell]

the graphics look kind of good for data design standards

[Erock23432]

Wow. Your voice is Terrible.

[ADPFlectarn]

this game sucks

[padasneg7]

2 is 2 generous

[XtremQcAcademy]

because IT IS

[TacoBoat2]

everything to you, what is the fun in that?

[TacoBoat2]

Wtf "kids" games? When I was like 3 I was playing Sonic the Hedgehog, and as I got older I played whatever game I could get my hands on. As long as a game isn't god awful a kid will play anything... which is why this game fails, because it is god awful. GG on breaking the one rule of kid gaming.

Difficulty was never a factor in the games I enjoyed when I was young. I loved challenging games in fact, that is something developers get so wrong now a days to. Games are just so easy they hand

[harvickfan82479]

being what appears to be a simple childrens game what the name "kidz sports ice hockey" didnt give that away

[KillWario]

Was this review made before the point that you forced yourself to go crazy when ever you reviewed a DDI game?

[Jed49er]

Notice how there are literally NO fans in the seats. HA HA!

[greendaylover12345]

This game is an absolute insult to hockey. No rules either; the developer (a 3 year-old maybe?) obviously has never heard of offsides.

[redfoxbennaton]

My god. Its like I designed this game. I do not like sports that much as the average Joe Jock. Why are you whispering is there a baby in the house besides you or is it a library. Just kiddin'.

[papelduck20]

EA sports needs to make a hockey game for wii, i was hoping that NHL09 was going to be on the wii.

[Truthfulpietro]

What about Kidz Sports Crazy Golf, Basketball, and/or Football

[petrcech101]

Well atleast we now have nhl 2k9. It's awesome.

[SonOfRevenge2]

Nazi gold, same as Uwe Boll.

[petrcech101]

nhl 2k9 wii is suppost to be out in about a month and looks like its going good. I guess its going to be fun because 2k sports keeps bringing up "We're bringing the fun back to hockey games." So see how it turns out

[shadow36057]

hey thiers NHL 09 COMING OUT IN SEPTEMBER 11 FOR THE WII! ITS GONNA BE BETTER THAN 2K9

[petrcech101]

No its not, do your research, its only coming out for the 360, PS3, PS2, and PC. Its unfortunate that EA has ignored the system once again but atleast 2K decided to take it up

[shadow36057]

aww...thats waht i saw only comng out for 360,ps3,ps2 and pc,is 2K9 gonna be any good?

[petrcech101]

Should be, I heard in an interview with from one of the developers that the wii version is suppost to have everything the ps3 and 360 are going to have (except downgraded graphics and including motion controls). AS for online play, I'm pretty sure I heard from him that it will have that but I'm not certain. If it does I think it would be a downgraded version from the 360 and ps3 versions. I know for a fact that it will be a 1000 times better than this piece of crap. DDI SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[thebig1]

NHL 2k9 on the Wii is very good as is NBA Live 09 for Wii aswell. I picked up both and love them.

[dancetipsandwiiviews]

you are so quiet in this video compared to your other ones

[nutridelicias]

ti iqual to foot ball fo the same and it is too bad

[hockeydude94]

is there any other hockeygames on wii or will it come?

u can find better hockeygames free online.

[TheMightyMrBen2008]

hockeydude94

NHL 2K9 has been confirmed for Wii.

[hockeydude94]

when does it come?

[TheMightyMrBen2008]

Third quarter of this year (probably late August or early September)

[Quadunit404]

Wow, what a huge audience!

[thebig1]

I have NHL 94,95, and 97 on the SNES. I also have NHLPA 1993 on the SNES. 93 and 94 are by far my favorite games. Not just favorite hockey games but my favorite games. My parents bought me a nintindo wii for my birthday today and with it they also bought me this game because they knew I love hockey. It seems pretty cool to me the game but I won't make any judgements till i have played it for myself.

[Jaildale]

that game sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[shaka888]

This game is for KIDZ. Reviews should keep this in mind. What would be great for a KID may be boring for anyone older.

[neverchris]

This game is awful regardless of its intended audience.

[AdpBalla]

have you tried any review of any Kidz sport games from DDI?

[nierdlord]

@neverchris But Neverchris, you aren't a kid, are you?

[ShyneLamar]

@shaka888

Oh dear God...have you ever held a controller? If so, go play the mario party 5 icehockey mini-game,...then switch back to this and see if this full game is your money's worth, no matter what age.

[MajorLeaguerAnubius]

@shaka888 NC is right. This game SUCKS even for a kid.

[denpanosekai]

what is up with the lack of real hockey games on the Wii?? thanks for the review, I'll skip this.

[FLYERSFAN93]

I want NHL 09 for the wii!

I think playing goalie on the wii would be awesome.

[juventes]

Until we get an actual hockey game on the Wii, we've at least got Blades of Steel and Ice Hockey from the NES on the Virtual Console.

[telephonline92]

Jesus, it's like a horrible spin-off of Backyard Hockey...

[juventes]

Yeah, except those games were actually kind of fun.

[telephonline92]

I know! The Backyard series would make excellent Wii games.

[juventes]

Those just make sense. They're pretty simple, and kid oriented. Why don't we have any of those yet? Backyard Hockey on the Wii would have some NHL players at least, and you could probably import Miis like with Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games.

And it would be 87 times better than this crap.

[SouthCash]

what do u expect 4 a 20$ game..lol

PPL! A GOOD WII HOCKEY GAME IS COMIN OUT IN JUNE...GAME INFORMER HAD IT IN 2007 DEC ISSUE

[alexander4488]

all sports games suck. all.

[BrendyFitz]

Um, Mario Strikers? Isn't that a football game?

[sikokiller12]

looks mediocre... i want NHL

[tidq]

The best part of the review is the goalie helplessly letting the slow puck slide by for a goal in the minigame.

[gardnersf]

Thanks for the review. I bought it for my son but didn't open it yet. It is going back.

[JaJason]

Goes to show how little parents know about good games.

[TechnoDanDotCom]

WOW. Thanks for the review. I was really excited when I saw a hockey game for the wii, but I'm glad I didn't buy it!

[RetardsTalk4Free]

such great ideas! =] if only nintendo would read this! jk!

[RetardsTalk4Free]

i think they should nake 'mario hocky' (u know like mario strikers charged.

[chcdude]

i also hope they come out with mario power tennis just like they did with GC and even have wifi....it would be sweeeet!!

[RichardWatsonTV]

they should make mario theft auto, it would be nice to see something like that

[Cotnob1]

@RetardsTalk4Free check out mario sports mix or mario and sonic

[Ryanator008]

@RetardsTalk4Free How does nake something. I think somebody naked id software.
