That review was not a 1/5 review.
Some of the Wii comments were on-target (swinging for control is tiring and a remake like this is old). Meanwhile, some were just mean (description of the machine as fun box (not the exact words, but it describes the gist of it), description of controller as "white candy bar").
The content reminded me of a 2/5 review. And it was much less negative than the review of Mario Tennis -- which got a 2/5: http://g4tv.com/xplay/reviews/1910/Mario-Power-Tennis-Review.html
It is interesting how Xplay went from being in the tank for the Wii (see the hosts 2006 end of year awards) to being anti-Wii (questioning whether games should even be on it -- such as No More Heroes).

 I am Mario.I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
