Welcome Back Leah

Leah's back from her Thanks Giving Vacation and I like to say to her Welcom Back.

I'm also thinking of making a rap about friends.

Wes AKA Man of Videogames,

I was thinking of asking Leah if she could come over to my house so me and her could do a Co-op review of Tonic Trouble.

Review of Donkey Kong 64

The game of a life time is Donkey Kong 64. In this game you play as 5 of the Kongs Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Lanky Kong, Tiny Kong, and Chunky Kong.

Story: King K Rool Stole Donkey Kong's Golden Bannanas and Kidnapped the rest of the Kongs. You start the game as Donkey Kong Using him and his moves to go to new worlds and get his golden bananas back.

Gamplay: When you go to new worlds you can rescue the rest of the Kongs and use their moves. But you need to go to Cranky Kong to give you the main moves. Funky Kong to give you Gun Power ups, and Candy Kong to give you powerful musical moves. If you get stuck in one of the worlds you can ask for the help of Wrinkly Kong and he'll give you hints in how to find one of the Golden bananas. You need at least 100 Golden bananas to complete the game, but if you get all 201 golden bananas to unlock a funny movie.

Graphics: Good for a Donkey Kong game, but need more work.

Scores: Story: 5.0
Gamplay: 9.9 My family had alot of fun with this game.
Graphics -0.9
Overall: 9.8
Great game

Wes AKA Man of Videogames,

Thanks giving soon

Thanks Giving is tomarrow. The only thing I like about Thanks Giving dinner is the mashed potatos. The things I hate about the dinner is Turkey, stuffing, gravey, and corn.

Review of Banjo Tooie

It been 2 years since a Banjo game was made and 2 years since Banjo beaten Grunty the witch. So Nintendo mande another Banjo games. Banjo Tooie is the sequel to Banjo Kazooie, But with a different story.

Stroy: Banjo, Kazooie, Mumbo, and Bottles was gambling. Meanwhile Gruny's minion Klungo Was trying to help her from under a rock. But Grunty Killed Bottles and was turned into an angel.

Gameplay: With the help of Bottles Brother Jam Jars he'll give you new moves more moves than from the last game. Mumbo is a playable character to use the mumbo disk and a magical thing will help Banjo and Kazooie. Finally a new Character named Humba Wumba will turn you into differant creatures like in the Banjo Kazooie.

Graphics: a little better than Banjo Kazooie.

Scores: Story: 6.0 It can scare little kids.
Gamplay: 9.5
Graphics: 7.9
Overall:9.8
Great game,

Top ten Mario kart tracks

Some people wonder what my favorite Mario kart tracks are. Well here are my top 10 favorite tracks from the N64 and the Wii.

10: Yoshi valley N64
With the multiple ways to go through the track the computer can't tell you who's in first, But when you fall off it takes a long time to get back up.

9: Koopa troopa beach N64
Big short cut but needs a speeder to use it.

8: Koopa Cape Wii
You go through a tube to go under water and most of the track is made of water.

7: Toad's turnpike 64/ Moon View Highway Wii
Their both kinda the same because lots of giant cars will run into you unless you get out of the way.

6: Banshee board walk N64.
Hard turns and boos everyware.

5: Wario's gold mine Wii,
Thin track hard to stay on and mine cart bumping you.

4: DK summit Wii
You get blasted to the top of the mountain by a cannon. You take difficult turns deep snow and Syguys one of my favorite characters

3: maple treeway Wii
You race on a tree with sharp turns,

2: Rainbow Road
A rainbow road sharp turns a big stunt you have to do and a Super Mario Galaxy theme.

1: Bowser's Castle
My favorite Character A big Metal bowser that shoots fireballs and lots of thwomps.

That's my all my favorite races in Mario kart Wii/N64.

Back from the lock in


I'm back from the lock in. It was not as good as I expected, but we did eat pizza.


Plus on the top of this post is my second favorite Nintendo Character.

Review of Mario Kart 64

Since I don't have any other Wii games I'll be reviewing N64 games.
Mario kart 64 is the second Mario kart game ever, Here's the list of Mario kart games. Super Mario Kart, Mario kart 64, Mario kart GBA, Mario kart Double dash, mario kart DS, and Mario kart Wii.

Since Mario Kart 64 was on the N64 it's graphics were terrible, but this is not about the graphics yet.

Story, No Story

Gamplay, Kinda like my Mario kart Wii review you race and use Items to win. You can also play against you friends in Vs. mode or Battle mode.

Now It's time for graphics. Terrible I hate to be Mr. Pickey, but the Racers look like toys. Nintendo's 3D = Fail. The races look like snooze tracks.

Scores, Gamplay: 5.0
Graphics: 1.0
Overall: 4.0

Extra, In 1996 the game was known as the best racing game ever. I see why and I don't see why. Mario kart 64 was the first mario kart game to let you race in 4 player mode. On the Wii shop Channel you can Download this game to play on your Wii.

Ps. My next review will be about Wave Race

Review of Wii Fit

Wii fit is a game where you hope to get fit. Plus it comes with a wii balance board to do the exercises.

Gamplay: There are 4 exercises Balance games, Arobics, yoga, and strength training. the Balance games are the on game stuff but It'll give you more balance. The arobics you do exercises to help you lose fat. Strength training gives you strength (you probably guessed that). Finaly Yoga it's Yoga Duh. There is somthing you always do when you made a new profile. A body test. This test shows your center of balance, weight, and shows you Wii Fit age.

Graphics: Terrible, But I guess no one cares about that when you have a fitness game

Scores:
Gamplay: 5.5
Graphics 0.1
Overall 5.5

I wouldn't recomend this But there are other game where you use the wii balance board, like We Ski, Wii Music that's just some of them

Buy it.

Review of wii sports

You wonder Why I'm called the man of video games? Well because some people look for me to get my opinion on Wii games. Wii sports is actually my second wii game I ever played. because we couldn't get the game disk out of the package. I'll tell you of my first game I played later. Wii sports is exacly what it sounds it's sports, But you're forced to have this game cause it comes with the Wii console. The sports you play are Tennis, bowling, golf, baseball and boxing. I can't tell you all the games, But I'll tell you the controls. In tennis you swing the Wiimote to hit the ball. In Golf you swing it to hit the ball. In Bowling You swing the Wiimote to roll the ball. in baseball you swing the Wiimote to pitch or Swing the bat, and Finaly you use the nunchuk controler and hold the Wiimote in one hand and nunchuk on the other then you push the controlers to punch.

I give sound a 2.0
I give gamplay a 2.5
I give controls a 9.9
Overall I give the game a 7.5
