Classic Board Games on Wii

by

Remember sitting at the dinner table at night playing games like Sorry, Monopoly or even Connect Four? Well now you can play them on the Wii. Yep they’ve brought back all the old classic board games but made them available on the big screen.

Which games are on the Wii?

-  Connect Four

-  Boggle

-  Yahtzee

-  Battleship

-  Sorry

-  Sorry Sliders (this is newer)

By the sounds of it there are two games that just aren’t as good on the Wii as they are on the board, those are Sorry and Battleship. On Battleship you must zoom in to get the exact grid location you want to ask. Sorry doesn’t allow you to view the board and makes it harder to play.

On the Connect Four, the Mr.Potato Head helps you put the pieces in the slot. Very cute, makes you think of Toy Story.
