Wii Play - Two-Player Fishing

This is a capture of me and a friend playing the Fishing mode of Wii Play for the Wii. This was recorded directly from my Wii (not the Wii U). I'm player one and Drew is player two.

My old two-player footage of Wii Play was only posted in 30 fps, and since Drew and I enjoy this game so much, we decided to record some new multiplayer footage in 60 fps.

I had actually been interested in getting Wii Play since shortly after I got my Wii in early December 2006 because it looked like more of Wii Sports. However, I never got around to buying it until 2011, mostly because I made the mistake of listening reviewers who bashed the game. It's a shame I waited so long because the game is actually quite fun. It reminds me of a lot of the simple black box NES games I played as a kid.

Fishing is one of the weaker games in this title. Although it makes good use of the Wii Remote's three-dimensional tracking, the gameplay falls a bit flat (pun intended). Nintendo should have made this more like the fishing in Ocarina of Time or Twilight Princess instead of using cardboard-looking fish in some tiny pond.
