  • Summary: [WiiWare] Muscle March is a quirky Japanese action game stuffed full of macho bodybuilders. The all mighty protein powder has been stolen, so it's up to Tony and his muscle-bound crew to catch the thieves. Choose from a variety of perfectly molded superstars and bring these terrible villains to justice. As the thieves attempt escape, they will smash through walls while making a variety of poses. You must match these poses to fit through the holes and catch up to the thieves. The protein powder will be yours again! Flex your muscles by yourself or with up to three friends in turn-based macho excitement. Posing for a few minutes not enough? Enjoy Endless Rush mode until your muscles bulge and explode! Muscle March will also be the first WiiWare title to offer a polar bear in tight swimwear! [Nintendo]… Expand

    An interactive joke and a good one at that. The controls aren't quite sharp enough, though. [May 2010]

    Muscle March is a lot of fun simply because it’s just so damn strange. It’s definitely worth a download, even if you only pull it to make your friends’ jaws hit the floor from time-to-time.

    It comes down to this: Muscle March is shallow, stupid, short, repetitive and crude. It's also the best WiiWare game I've ever played.

    The problem is that the motion sensing is abysmal; the game will frequently misread your commands, resulting in your character shuffling through the stances until he either miraculously makes it through or smashes his head into a bloody pulp.

    This is a wacky, fun arcade game. Remember those? It's what created the industry in the first place. The question people never seem to consider anymore in reviewing these is: Do you have fun? Yes, this game gets extremely challenging around the 3 level (Damn that Mech Muscle!) but it's still a lot of fun for a 15-30 minute stretch. And, I swear that if you play it for more than 10 and really do the poses your upper body muscles will feel a bit tighter than before you started. What more do you want from a $5 arcade game?!… Expand

    Great idea and concept but the inaccurate controls are what ruin this game. The motion based gestures simply do not work the majority of the time. Too bad because it could have been a really fun experience.… Expand
