    If the cute characters don’t hook you, the gameplay definitely will.
  2. Entertaining, addictive, and hard to put down. Next thing you know I'll be watching the sugary sweet anime on Cartoon Network. Just don't tell anyone I know that you heard me say that.

    Once you get past all the rainbows and happiness, you'll find one of the best portable sports games around. And hey, those Ham-Hams ARE pretty cute.
  4. Side stories abound, and Ham Studios keeps you entertained with music and news. [Sept 2004, p.116]

    I really liked this game, especially the side issues that were going on between sports. It's very cute and funny! However, I wish they would have made a multi-player function so you can play the sports with your friends (maybe even without them having a game-pak). Expand
