Wii Play is a party video game developed and published by Nintendo.

Good Qualities

 * 1) All of the games are fun, and they help to show off all the capabilities of the Wii remote:
 * 2) Shooting Range is similar to the NES video game Duck Hunt, except with more things to shoot. It is very fun to shoot at the items, and you can also gain more points by shooting a duck.
 * 3) Find Mii, Table Tennis, and Pose Mii, despite being boring and overall mediocre to many, are still addicting to say the least.
 * 4) Laser Hockey is a minigame similar to Pong and based on hockey. It can be quite fun and like others, addicting to play, and is fun to play in multiplayer.
 * 5) Billiards is considered the best minigame due to being relaxing and overall the most entertaining.
 * 6) Fishing is also very relaxing and is ironically pretty addicting. It is also a lot more fun that fishing in real life to many people.
 * 7) Charge! is quite fun to play, though its multiplayer mode is less fun.
 * 8) Tanks! is also among one of the better games in the collection, as it is very addicting, has lots of levels (though unfortunately you have to redo them again and again), and also gives you an option to use the Nunchuk, making it a lot more fun to play.
 * 9) The visuals and designs are great, as usual for a game in the Wii series.
 * 10) It became one of the best-selling games of all time, due to the fact that an additional Wii Remote comes with every new copy of the game, and the game costs not much more than the Wii Remote sold by itself.
 * 11) The background music is great.
 * 12) The game can be very addicting.
 * 13) There are also fun things you can do with your Mii on the home menu, in fact, you can even leave your Wii Remote on but not use it, which causes the Mii to get tired.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) There are many flaws related to the multiplayer mode:
 * 2) Similar to Wii Fit Plus multiplayer, you cannot save your scores, or at least, it isn't easy. If there is a way to save your scores, it is not very easy, as you cannot save your scores by playing all the minigames or anything like that. If anything, you can do it by playing all of the games and getting medals, which should not be a requirement. However, it is unlikely that this is the case, and you probably just can't save your scores at all.
 * 3) The fact that you can only play with up to two people is somewhat unfair considering there are multiple games that could be played with more than two people:
 * 4) Find Mii could be played with four people, as it is still possible to point the Wii remote at the screen even with 3 other people doing the same thing, you just need some space and the time should be extended.
 * 5) Billiards could definitely be played with four people, in fact, it could be played with four people with one Wii remote, because it is a turn-taking game. Playing turn-taking games with multiple people and only one Wii remote is possible in Wii Sports Bowling and Golf, so why not here?
 * 6) Charge! could be played with four people, especially considering its controls are somewhat similar to the controls of 4-player Wii racing games such as Mario Kart. Yes, Charge! requires more focus, but still.
 * 7) The Charge! multiplayer mode is not that good, given that there is no goal to reach and instead, the winner is whoever goes further.
 * 8) Some of the minigames are very uninteresting and can be boring to play, such as Find Mii and Fishing.
 * 9) *Even among the best minigames, they can become repetitive and boring after playing for a while, making the game suited more for quick bursts rather than full play sessions.
 * 10) Outside of playing the minigames, the rest of the experience is pretty shallow, with the only incentive to playing is getting a gold medal in all the minigames.
