Forums - Nintendo - Rate the most accessible?

Pyro as Bill on 28 November 2009

So if you handed a wiimote to a complete noob. Grandma, 3 year old, whoever, how would you rate the following games in order of accessibility? I don't mean mastering the game, I just mean trying the game and getting a positive enough response to want to play more.

Wii Sports

Wii Sports Resort

New Super Mario Bros Wii

Mario Kart Wii

New Super Mario Bros DS

Brain Age

Mario Kart DS



Nov 2016 - NES outsells PS1 (JP)

Don't Play Stationary 4 ever. Switch!

The Wii Sports games and the New Super Mario Bros games are all roughly even.

I'd go with Wii Sports or Resort, though.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

if I handed a wii remote to someone and told them to play Mario Kart DS I dont think they would find it very accessible.

For complete ease of use Id have to go with anything that uses Motion+. Anything that makes your movements more precise would help a complete newbie to the wii.

Brain age would be the most accessible.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

Does anybody want to put them in order from most accessible to least?

A 3 year old wouldn't stand a chance with brain age but anyone can swing a wiimote ala Wii Tennis. I think most mammals could attempt Wii Tennis.

Was thinking more of the older generation. My mum wanted a DS specifically for Brain training. She tried Wii sports but wasn't really bothered about it.

Easily Wii Sports based on my experiences. My niece, grandmother, and mother had little problem figuring out Bowling. Probably the only thing they needed to figure out was where the B button was. It's a sport they've seen several times over, so the learning curve is nears nonexistent.



Pixel Art can be fun.
