This is a capture of me and a friend playing the Charge! 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 twoplayer 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.
Cow racing is an interesting concept with a flawed execution. It's fun the first time you play it, then it has no replay value. The problem is that there's no real course to speak of. You just go for a high score each time.
Considering the control style, Nintendo should have done something more like the Excite 3D mode from Excitebike 64. That would have been a perfect fit for the control scheme and much more entertaining.
