You'll likely find yourself sticking to a select few when they become available, which is disappointing because the premise itself is so good. For that reason alone, we recommend a rent. If you end up liking the bulk of what's on offer here, you can always adopt Help Wanted for good.
-
Full of odd novelty that, while funny, doesn't really outweigh the stinking games. [May 2009, p.83]
-
70This vocational minigame collection provides some wacky fun, despite sometimes feeling like a chore.
-
60More successful as a single-player experience, which can be seen as good or bad depending on your inclination.
-
70Unusual mini-game entertainment built specifically for kids.
-
50There's not much fun to be had here. The games are too short and the cut scenes are too long. Very young children might see things differently, so you might consider it for the little ones.
-
Do minigames become more playable when coupled with a story that would have cinema goers lobbing popcorn at the screen? Answer: not really. [May 2009, p.60]
-
The main thing about this game is that nearly all the mini-games are enjoyable which, when you consider there are 50 to choose from, is an excellent achievement.
-
Times are tough, but this is one job offer you should pass up. [June 2009, p.90]

Help Wanted is easily one of the more interesting mini-game collections on the Wii. Its flaws prevent it from being truly special, but the core mechanics and presentation of games make it one to watch for, especially if you enjoy any of Hudson Soft’s multiplayer/mini-games on the Wii or any other gaming platform.
-
Sure, it's a mini-game compilation, but it's as good an example of the genre as we've seen. [Apr 2009, p.84]

Given the lack of quality motion titles and siminicol games (part simulation, part mini-game and part collecting), Help Wanted is a nice addition to one's game collection.
