What do you all think about Wii Play? Do you think it will be cool, or does it just look like a tech demo collection? (I'm undecided as to wheather I'm getting it or not, and I'm collecting outside opinions)

Oh, yes, it does. I forgot to add that.

From what I read, the reviews have been only average or so, and the games featured really aren't that great except for one or two games. It's a collection of nine mini-games that teach you how to use the Remote...which you hopefully already know by now. Your Miis are used a la Wii Sports, but the gameplay isn't too great. Yes, it does include one free Remote.
Personally, it's really up to you whether to get it or not. I probably won't get it because I don't need the extra Remote, but if you want the extra Remote, then go for it.

Dude, it's going to be packaged with a Wii remote and cost around $45. Yes, it will essentially be a collection of tech demos. You can't really complain with that kind of price.

Worth it? Yeah, I suppose so. You're paying 5 dollars more for some free minigames, while essentially buying a wiimote.
It was out at launch here in Australia. For 10 bucks you get tanks, a new version of duck hunt (just shooting various things, from targets, to clay pidgeons to spaceships and yes, ducks) table tennis, laser hocky and my absolute favorite, Find Mii. There's also fishing, twist Mii and another 1 or 2 I've forgotten. All that just for 10 bucks? It's definetly worth it.

Awesome. The Australian has spoken.

I already have a Wiimote that I got from Christmas, though. Perhaps if more friends come to my house?

Reservations went out fast for this game, so either Americans have high hopes or they want the almost-free Wiimote (or almost-free game, whichever way you look at it). I suppose I'll get it because of the game itself, seeing how no one else in the household plays with the Wii. Perhaps I can sell the controller...

More vibes, please.

The release date for Wii Play is February 12, for Canada and US.
And I think it is worth it, I'm getting it ASAP.

well the wii play game comes with a another wii remote and a nunchuck and the game is only 49.99 so its a bargain b/c if you bought the remote and nunchuck which would b more than buying the game so i think its a good idea

^^^ Wrong it only comes with the wiimote, no nunchuck...
Anyway I won a bet the other day, and I may choose that game, thus my cousin will buy it and Ill get it for free, still I dont know If I should get wii ply or sonice, but probably wii play thanx to the wiimote bonus...

GET IT, TRUST ME
I bought this game the day after it came out. It came out feb 12th, but it takes a day to ship to ebgames, so i got it the 13th.
at first i HATED it, let me tell you. i just couldnt stand how boring the games were.
but then after playing it for a few hours they become really fun.
the best games are as follows:
1. tanks
2. shooting
3. billiards
4. table tennis
i dont really like the air hockey or any of the other ones, but those 4 are definitely worth it.

Unless you have 3 friends who come over to your house often and have no problem playing it, it's not worth it.
Here's why.
Wii Play is fun. No doubt about that. But with just one or even two people it will just get boring after time. Much like Wii Sports. On top of that, the game is only $10 in other places so you're not really getting a bargain, it's just a bundle that's being advertised as a bargain. If Zelda came with a Wiimote and was only $50, THAT would be a bargain because I'd be saving money. But paying $50 for a $10 game and a $40 controller isn't anything fancy. If you want a Wiimote just get it. Wii Play doesn't last long.
