I am the Yahtzee master.  I can’t play Connect 4 to save my life.  I am NEVER Sorry when I knock you back to Start.

All of our favorite games we played as kids are now available in one handy dandy little disc brought to you by Hasbro and EA Games for the Nintendo Wii.  No more lost dice or scattered chips.  When you go to keep score, you don’t have to try to re-use the score card in the Yahtzee game by tracing it on to a notebook or blacking the old scores out and writing the new ones next to it.  You don’t even have to do Math anymore, it’s all done for you!

I SUCK at Math.  I won’t even pretend that I don’t.  In this high tech world, there’s a reason calculators are everywhere.  How many times have you played Yahtzee and everyone fought for about a half an hour, passing the score card around to add the scores?  What about the Upper Level Bonus?  I’ve actually not gotten credit for it before because I forgot to carry a one and thought I didn’t have enough points.

You can play CONNECT FOUR, BATTLESHIP (as in ‘You sunk my’), YAHTZEE, BOGGLE (I’ll crush you), SORRY! (I never am) and the all new, SORRY! Sliders.   I never understood Battleship before, and we’d always lose the tiny little pieces or they’d scatter on the floor and one would end up lodged in my foot and I’d have a submarine impression in my heel for days.  With the Hasbro Family Game Night game for the Wii, everything is right where you need it and the instructions are easy to understand.

No more fighting over rules and pulling out the Instructions.  The rules are programmed in the game and it won’t let you cheat (Stef).  Up to 4 people can play and everyone gets their own room to decorate where all your throphies are stored.  I have a lot of trophies.  I’m the Yahtzee & Boggle master.

I will say this, it doesn’t matter if I play live or on the Wii, I stink at Connect 4.  Play as I might, something in my brain freezes and I’m completely unable to make a logical move.  I will persevere!  Someday, I will perfect my Connect 4 (and ability to wink) skills, and I WILL PERSEVERE!

Everyone is talking about this game.  I brought it to my Mother’s when I was on my ‘Vacation’ in NY and everyone was excited to play.  While partying with the Wii Fit Mommies on Twitter the other day, we got into a great discussion about this game and it seems everyone wants to get a hold of it!  For around $39.95, you can bring back all the games of your youth and enjoy them with your friends and family.

Check out the EA website for more info on this and other great games offered and look for my Video Review of EA’s Boogie Superstar Karaoke/Dance game.  Once I get over this sinus infection, I’m going to sing and dance for you.  I also plan on taking my favorite song and dance to an actual bar and I’m gonna sing it live (and Vlog that, if I can get Jody to record it for me)!  Stay tuned!
