Review - Samba de Amigo (Wii)

[musashi777]

Totally agree: I enjoyed so much this game on the Dreamcast that I thought it was a must buy an WII...but I resell it after a couple of days, due to the bad controls.

in the instruction booklet theres a plot

[Mylesperhour23]

you have to do the controls from samba's point of view. in other words right is left and left is right which is way easier to get use to than it seems. please take this into consideration, that 1 fact makes this game 10 times more enjoyable.

That doesn't change the fact that the game failed to detect when I go from a left-down to left-up shake, or right-down to right-up. If the wiimotes are reversed, that's one thing (though they shouldn't be, because you set the controls at the start of the game). They just wouldn't recognize when I changed position.

[Mylesperhour23]

it does detect left-up is left-right and vice-versa, the same is for down. It wasn't hard to get use to and actually made the game more challenging for me but its not hard to please me so I cant really say for others

I think the multiplayer should have been better, but over all I like the game. I just wish it was better

I bought this game today, it would be so much more fun if everything other than the top rings registered properly.

I really like the points in your review.. however I found myself drifting quite a bit. You need more enthusiasm/power in your voice or people are going to fall asleep. Also, try adding in clips of something other than gameplay.. like try putting in humorous anecdotes and adding clips to relate to them. Maybe try watching other reviewer techniques and adapt them to your own. You would get a lot more attention if you did this because your review in itself was very good .

Another thing try grabbing a chair and sit close to the sensor bar when playing this game it becomes ALOT more accurate for control.

Why is this review at 3 stars? 5/5.

[Loogaroo1]

Wouldn't know, but I'd doubt it. It looks like they're for show more than anything else. In any case, I wouldn't spend any extra money for a controller that I could only use for one game anyway.

[happycamper305]

is it true that if u buy the maracas, u would have no problem with the unacurate controls.

[nigellaurentius]

What the hell is "saRmba" and what are "maraRcas"? I rate your dumb accent 35, subpar.

[Loogaroo1]

I have absolutely no idea what the hell you're talking about.

[nigellaurentius]

...And that's where the problem lies

[Loogaroo1]

Seriously. I can't tell if you're actually being constructive about my delivery or just being snarky, but I relistened to the whole review, and I still don't hear any mispronunciations.

[nigellaurentius]

Haha, yes I was being snarky as you say! Don't mind me, it's a great review, very helpful, and I look forward to seeing more Wii game reviews :-)

[Nickrj3]

I think I heard Take On Me by A-ha on there.

[Loogaroo1]

That's a cover by Reel Big Fish you're hearing.
