Nintendo Wii

Billy the Wizard: Rocket Broomstick Racing is an interesting concept of a game.  It is very Harry Potter like with Billy looking a little bit like Harry Potter and the castle part you race around on your broomstick looking a lot like Hogwarts.  The problem is that the controls are pretty complex to get used to, as they do involve both the Wii remote and nunchuck and are not very natural feeling.

As I said I like the concept of the game because it is pretty unique, but overall I found it pretty frustrating to try and play it.  I never even got anywhere near beating the first race and actually barely even got through the tutorial.

Overall it is a cool idea to be racing on a broom, but I think we need a better game developer and possibly an actual Harry Potter broom racing game to make the concept into a good Wii game.  Unless you have a lot of patience this game is one to pass up.
