Yeesh.

I played the real game when my sister and bro-in-law were here about a week ago. That was fun. Playing it on the Wii? Not so much.

And lo she did ride upon the beast, clothed in purple and gold, drunk on the blood of saints, playing Jenga on the Wii.

I was in Barnes & Noble and I saw a Donkey Kong edition of Jenga. There are mario pieces you have to climb to the top so its not just a matter of who makes the tower fall anymore. I thought that was an original idea. I would have bought it, but my gift card only had $15 dollars left on it.


There are a lot of what if's in life Donny. What if I hit you really hard in the face, knocked yo shit to the back of yo skull? What if I....had you girl gargle my nuts? The fact remains, you are a fuckin mutant.

I have that Donkey Kong Jenga, and it is pretty fun at all, but one incredibly annoying thing about it is that the holes you stick the Jump Man/Mario Pegs in aren't all the same size, which doesn't sound like a big deal, but several holes are to small for the pegs to get into without applying force, and applying force will make the entire tower collapse. It can be incredibly frustrating when you lose because of something that stupid. [/quote]

That actually does sound like a serious game flaw.

For a while, I regretted getting a 360 instead of a Wii, but after seeing all of the Wii shovelware, I'm more happy with my choice. There are certainly plenty of good games on the Wii, but the selection seems comparatively smaller.


So here's to you Mrs. Robinson. People love you more- oh, nevermind.

Well, the Wii only has so much shovelware because it's such a popular system. Every popular system has shovelware. Just take a look through history.

On a side note, IGN actually liked one of the characters on the game, which is a slot machine dressed like a cowboy:

The only redeeming factor Jenga has (albeit a big one) is the character select screen, which has – amongst other things – a slot machine dressed as a cowboy, complete with hat, bandolier, and pistola. If he teamed up with Ninja Bread Man and made an original Wii-exclusive adventure game, we'd give it game of the year on IGN Wii. A big shout out to Rob Gray and/or Trev Storey; one of you is responsible for the greatest videogame character since Mario. He was, unfortunately, stuck in one turd of a product.

He truly is bad ass. Too bad his game ended up being craptastic.

DO NOT under any circumstances LET HIM BUY THAT GAME!!!
That game was so bad the only way I completed the first level was because my roommate said I wouldn't. Not COULDN'T...WOULDN'T.

If you really feel the need to play Jenga on the Wii, buy Boom Blox. While it doesn't have an actual Jenga setup, a lot of the levels play like Jenga does, and you can build your own Jenga setup in the level builder.

I keep telling him not to buy it, no matter how cool the idea is. And then he's all "Well, if I can get for five bucks and bleh meh feh feh FEH."

If he absolutely HAS to play it just get Anubis II, they are just about identical. Seriously. Fuck Bold, Inc. Or whatever there name is. They ruined my WII experience.
