My Overall Thoughts:
- Dr. Mario is one of my all time favorite games, and I’m
super super happy that they released it on the Wii!
- This game is a classic, and they held true to
the Dr. Mario game for the Wii version.
- I love this game! I am also very addicted…have been since the NES.
My Thoughts on Gameplay:
- This is a classic Dr. Mario game. Throw the pills, stack 4, and kill
viruses. It’s as addicting as
Tetris. *Side Note: Nintendo did not do their research when making this game. Viruses can't be killed with pills. They have to run their course. Bacteria can be killed with medicine though*
There
are 4 different ways you can play the game:
- You can play with a friend and
battle it out. I wish it would show your
winning streak, cause I enjoy seeing how much I’m winning; However, I am
satisfied with watching the opponents Mii look all sad after they’ve been
beaten.
- You can, of course, play by
yourself and see which level you can make it to. Guess what?
The levels don’t stop at 20. I
haven’t found an end to the game yet, but I’ve only played to lvl 35. I usually run out of time or something and
have to stop, but one of these days, I’ll just sit and play until the end!
- You can go online and duke it out
with people from around the globe. You
start out with 4000 points and gain points by winning and lose
points by losing. Trust me, there are
some crazy people out there that kick trash!!
I get my butt handed to me all the time, and I consider myself a pretty
good Dr. Mario player.
- You can play with 4 people, but
it’s weird. It isn’t classic Dr. Mario
anymore. The game objective is the same,
but you work together to kill viruses.
You grab the pills, yes grab, and place them where you want. I would have preferred competing against each
other. I think it would have been more
fun and added more game value.
My Thoughts on Controls:
- You only need the Wii Remote for this game. You hold it sideways and play like an old
school Nintendo controller, but for the 4 player thingy, you hold it normal and
point and click at the screen.
- I think
the controls are super easy to figure out, and there really isn’t any need for
explanation, especially if you’re a Dr. Mario veteran.
My Thoughts on Graphics:
- Graphics are everything you remember from all the other Dr.
Marios (is it Marios or Marioes?), same colors, same Mario, but just a little
updated.
- The menus look nice and fun,
and they are easy to use and figure out.
- You get to use your Mii for some of the stuff, and your Mii has a doctor
coat like Mario. Woo!
My Thoughts on Sound:
- I love the music from this game. They kept all the good ol' classic music selections. You get to choose your favorite song while
you play, or you can put it on random and be surprised. If you’re boring, you can turn the music off,
but I wouldn’t recommend doing that. My
favorite is Chill.
- You
also get all the classic noises that come along with the game. Like the little warning noise that tells you
your opponent is sending you junk, or the siren that goes off when you are too
close the top.
- I wish
Mario would say something in the game, like “good job,” “way to go,” or
something to indicate that he is alive.
Tyson's Thought:
- I want to know where Mario got his doctor's degree?
- He is a pill pusher.
- He is a pill pusher.
I have this on my Wii too. I loved playing it again. I still have my NES version, but my NES is out of commission and my NES substitute is on loan (has been for the last few years). So, I bought it for my Wii from the Nintendo store and I'm glad I did. It was so much fun and it reignited my love for the game!
ReplyDelete*He is a pill pusher* lol
ReplyDeleteYeah, we just got this one, too! I'm an old-skool NES lover, and Dr. Mario has been one of my favorites :D
Wish we could battle each other, Kami - that would be so much fun! <3
That would be fun!!
