    If anything is wrong with Battleship, it is that there is nothing remarkable about it. The game is fun and challenging, but bogged down by the very movie that inspired it. It might have also benefited from some sort of multiplayer option, but as it stands, you could buy far worse on the Wii.

    When compared to any other strategy game on the market, Battleship has nothing distinctive to offer. The attempt to add in some action with the duel mode is a neat, but ultimately flawed, idea. The fact that it borrows so heavily from Advance Wars doesn't help, forcing players to continually compare it to better titles. If you're absolutely dying for Advance Wars on the Wii, there aren't really better options, but that is about the game's only selling point. For everyone else, it will be a bland and forgettable adventure.

    More accomplished than you might expect, but lacking the depth needed for return visits after slogging through the lengthy campaign. [June 2012, p.92]

    It's not awful just basic to the point of tedium. [Aug 2012, p.84]

    It is a good game for a day, but expect no more than a version of Advance Wars.
    The graphics are not bad. The sound is fine. The controls does    n't justify the use of the Nunchuk, but since it is a strategy game, it doesn't matter.
    It is not a bad game, it's just that it isn't good.    … Expand

    I really wanted to give this a higher score, however my love of the classic Battleship game made me lower my score for this peice of crap. I mean this toothbrush only has 6 bristles! 6! How am I meant to brush my teeth with that. This toilet simulation was ridiculously overpriced. There are only 6 levels and tey are all the same. Why did they make me pay £40 for this crap game when I could go and see the only slightly better movie for half as much. Sirs, I greatly advise you against buying this game, this review isn't long enough to cover all of the poor parts of the game. Do not waste your money on this rushed game. I did.… Expand
