The biggest issue I have with this game is the controls, which are somewhat clunky and insensitive. During the actual game play this could be of some benefit since it doesn't require too much accuracy to reward little kids for doing the "proper" actions, but when trying to navigate the menus (or for older kids where controlling the game with more precision might be a worthwhile reward!) it can be an exceedingly frustrating experience since half the time tilting the remote gives no response, while the other half of the time it seems to have a feather touch.
