  • Summary: Welcome to Big Brain Academy, the only school where you can school your friends and family! How big is your brain? Find out as you test yourself with numerous lightning-fast activities like across several categories. When you enroll, headmaster Professor Lobe will introduce you to Test mode, challenging you with a bevy of hilarous and exciting brain-teasers. Then, when it's all over, the professor will calculate your brain weight, award you with a grade, and give you an idea of what career track is best suited for your brain weight. Don't worry, it's all in the spirit of fun! Features: The Wii Remote's easy hands-on control makes playing the game a breeze. People of any age or education level can play together. Show off your smarts in multiplayer versus and co-op play modes like Mind Sprint, Mental Marathon, and Brain Quiz. The better you get at an activity, the harder it becomes. Send your grades to friends with the Wii's WiFi connection feature, WiiConnect24. While Big Brain will keeps your neurons dancing in Practice and Test mode, multiplayer and co-op modes bring challenges like only the Wii can deliver. [Nintendo] Expand

  1. It is great to see games with a specific goal in mind succeed, and the funny thing is that Big Brain delivers in a pair, providing a learning experience and a degree in fun. I for one could not be happier.

    On that note, this is a great game for children. There is absolutely no objectionable content, and the games are all educational. This is definitely a great family title. I highly recommend Big Brain Academy.
  3. Overall Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree is a pretty good first entry of the Touch Generations onto Nintendo’s Wii.
  4. Unfortunately the game offers up too little for too much and could have been up so much more.

    Fun, educational, non-violent, clean, what more do you want in this day and age of the typical opposite.
  2. El concepto mejora mucho en el paso de DS a Wii, y la jugabilidad es mucho mejor con el Wii Mote en mano. Los modos multiplayer son excelentes y constituyen un buen desafió para jugar con amigos. Expand

    Great game, but the price tag hurt a little. The most fun to be had here is the Brain Sprint multiplayer. Puzzles are not as repetitive as I would have thought, given their relatively small number. There are enough variations to keep you engaged and challenged. Expand

    Come on. How could it possibly get more boring than this! It doesnt last long, and the brain testing idea sucks the fun out of this stupid game. DONT BUY OR EVEN RENT THIS GAME! Expand
