Good Bad
  • Beautiful graphics
  • Can change button input style to not require button mashing
  • Different control types make the game significantly easier
  • Player name and look customization
  • Five players supported
  • Asks if you want to continue after every match
  • Annoying TV broadcasts between matches
  • Takes too long to move between events
  • Very difficult with default control type

7 The best part about it is the control options that make this a fun and casual party game. Unfortunately, it also has some very annoying presentation elements.
