Here in Wii Party 1 player hides the Wii Remotes in the room while the others wait outside. Then the players are given the task of finding the hidden remotes inside of the time limit. To help the seekers the Wii Remote’s will randomly make animal noises, as time goes on they get louder. It’s tons of fun, so join us in The Fold to check it out!

Wii Party is jam packed with different game modes for you to jump into.  This morning we’re checking out the 2 player Balance Boat mode. The goal is to safely drop Miis on to the mast of a boat, while keeping it balanced so your Miis don’t fall into the ocean. You earn more Miis by playing Mini Games. It’s a mode which involves a lot of cooperating and working as a team.

Using the GBA as your controller, play with up to 4 Links at once and unique gameplay mechanics that center around everybody working together, there’s plenty to love! Today marks the 6 year anniversary of the game’s release here in North America, so naturally we have to pay tribute to this masterful entry to the Zelda series on The Fold! While the Hyrulean Adventure is epic fun, we’re going to jump into the Shadow Battle to take each other on and fight for victory. Which color will shine brightest? Press play and find out!

With this in mind allow me to introduce a new special edition of The Fold which will focus on crazy Japanese Wii software that never released outside of Japan. Today we’re squeezing into insect suits and trying out the Pogo game in Haneru No Tobira Wii: Kirigirissu which released in Japan in 2007. Can you handle the super, terrific, intense, crazy fun time ahead of you?!

This morning we’re gearing up and jumping into Monster Hunter Tri’s 2 player Arena Mode to see if we can settle a score with a giant beastie! There’s no need to be scared, if the monster gets really angry we’ll just toss Nick Martin in front of it and run away.

This morning we’re jumping back into the past to check out 3 of the first Sport games released on the original NES. All of these titles can be downloaded for your own enjoyment via the Wii’s Virtual Console for 500 Wii points each.

Newly released Mega Man 10 on Wii Ware is certain no exception to this rule. Join myself and Nick Martin as we delve deep into the sewers to take on Plunger Man as well as go for the goal with Strike Man.  It’s an 8-Bit nostalgia trip and it’s all brand new!

For 800 Nintendo Points the game offers Single Player, Versus Mode and Co-Op play. Tonight on The Fold we’re checking out some of the Versus as well as the Cooperative action. As you may have guessed, we fail miserably at working together.

The game is clearly designed to take advantage of what the Wii controller has to offer. Join myself & Nick Martin on The Fold as we creep our way through the horrific halls of an abandoned school, a deserted fast food restaurant and more!
