PokePark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure

This game, somehow, is totally fun and addictive. I know its wrong, I know I shouldn't enjoy this game. I bought it for Link, for crying out loud! But I found myself playing through it in its entirety (only about 8 hours total) in three days.

The controls of Pikachu admittedly kinda suck, they are angular and unresponsive at times. But its not like there is anything that requires precise control anyhow. The battls and mini games are all pathetically easy. God why was I so into this game?

Oh, thats right- it was funny and reminded me of the cartoon. Link watched me play the entire game, so that probably also had something to do with it. But it was fun to see 3d renditions of 193 of the Pokemon in the series. Some of them had some pretty stupid/funny stuff to say.

If you're not a Pokemon fan, this is an obvious pass. But if you liked the cartoon, this might be worth your while, especially for the 3+ gamer.

I'm staying far away sir. I can't use the excuse that I'm getting it for my daughter since she isn't into Pokemon and the game just looks pathetic. Never got into the cartoons..did watch a handful of 'em. I liked the few I did watch so your post has me tempted to go back and watch some more cartoons more than trying this game.

I AM guilty of liking another Pokemon game with 3D rendered Pokemon that many didn't like...Pokemon Battle Revolution. So I know where you're coming from.
