The reservation I have about this game is the controls. Most reviews claim they're pretty awkward for some of the events. Have they been an issue for any of you who have played it?

The controls were spot on in most of the sports I played. Most of them are simple "timing" events, so they are hard to get wrong (code-wise).

I struggled a little with Table Tennis though - but that was probably my fault. I used to play a LOT of TT (real world) in the past, and tried to play the game exactly as I would a real game of TT. It sort of worked - and sort of didn't. I figure with a little practice, I would be able to nail it. But it was starting to feel remarkably close to the real thing, and that was pretty scary!

Okay, M&S is back on my watch list.

 Especially since it's good enough to get somebody new to make their first post about their impressions of the game. Welcome to the 'Chartz, Kreshi. :)

I'll look into picking this game up the next time I want to ratchet up the multiplayer fun on my Wii. I already have 4 x wiimotes and nunchuks, so this game will help justify all that money I spent on controllers. :P
