“Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree is a difficult sort of title for a video game reviewer to approach. Okay, sure, it has many of the trappings of a traditional video game; medals for playing well, a multiplayer mode, it comes in a box on a disc that you put into a console, that sort of thing. But as part of Nintendo’s ‘Touch Generations’ line-up, it’s probably as uncomfortable with me using the term ‘game’ to describe it as I am. The difference is, of course, is that Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree probably thinks of itself as ‘lifestyle software,’ I think of it as the digital equivalent of a dog-eared primary school maths book.”
This is a case where I really think the review says it all – as it should, I suppose. Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree is utterly pants, and particularly worth ignoring if you’ve already got the original on Nintendo DS.
“Utterly pants” is now my favorite phrase ever.
I like to play against your data because I can always win. Boo-yaa!
