Wii New Releases October 20-26, 2008

Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?: Make the Grade - This is a video game based on the television game show. I have played the DVD game version of Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? and that was fun, so this might be fun, too.
Carnival Games: Mini-Golf - This is a mini golf theme park game. It sounds more interesting than the regular golf games, but I really wonder about its replayability.
Penny Racers Party: Turbo Q Speedway - Not quite sure what this is, but I assume it is a racing game with maybe some mini games?
SpongeBob: Nicktoons Globs of Doom - This is an action adventure video game that includes more than just Spongebob. It also includes other Nicktoons characters and locations.
The Naked Brothers Band The Game - This is a game about being with the band on tour, playing instruments, and singing to 25 of their songs.
Wii Music - This is the long awaited Wii game that allows you to pretend to play over 60 instruments just using the Wii remote and nunchuck. It does seem pretty fun, especially since it does not require you to find a place for instrument add ons.

Backyard Football 2009 - The other Backyard Football game is fun, so this one probably is good too, but I am not sure if there is much more than updated characters to make it worth buying.
Barbie Horse Adventures: Riding Camp - This is a Barbie game involving horse riding. Sounds unique, but also pretty limited to who would enjoy it (i.e. mostly young girls).
Build a Bear Workshop: Fur Seasons - Not sure what kind of game this really is, but if it is like the DS one the game depth will not be much.
Circus Games - Looks like this is another mini game party style game. Seems a lot like Wonder World Amusement Park , but it might be fun even if it is not exactly fresh.
Dancing with the Stars: Get Your Dance On! - This is obviously a dance game, but I am not sure if it is one that uses a dance mat or not.
Disney Sing It - This is includes songs to sing to from Hollywood Records artists, Disney Channel shows, and Disney Channel movies. There is a version with a microphone and a version without the microphone for those who have a Wii microphone already.
High School Musical 3: Senior Year DANCE - This is a dancing game based on the new High School Musical movie. This one definitely does not use a dance mat and just uses the Wii remote and nunchuck.
Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2009 - This is like the Biggest Loser celebrity version of Wii Fit. It may or may not be as good and you still need to get a balance board to work with it.
Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution 2 - This is a new Naruto game. I dislike the series, but I know it is supposedly pretty good, as my brother keeps getting the games.
Petz Rescue Wildlife Vet - This does not have a description on Gamestop, so I kind of wonder if it really is being released as it says.
Spider-Man: Web of Shadows - This is a Spider Man action game. It is probably as good as other Spider Man games, which tend to be pretty enjoyable at least in my opinion.
The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon - This is the latest Spyro game. The Spyro series is one of the best adventure game series for all ages.
Think Fast - This is like the Disney version of Smarty Pants . It is a Disney trivia game. It sounds interesting, but not really sure how well it will translate into being worth purchasing as a Wii game.
