Summary
[WiiWare] Block Breaker Deluxe is a reinvention of the classic arcade brick-breaker game with a trendy graphical style, fun atmosphere and an exclusive multiplayer mode. Lively characters and amazing graphics provide distinctive settings of the jet-set nightlife, including a cool bar, dance club, casino and more. Special bricks, multiple bonuses, secret weapons, paddle size options and ball-speed variations make this game even more challenging. The Block Breaker Deluxe rage has arrived. [Gameloft]

NGamer UK
Ignore all the neon '80s nonsense going on around it and this is a solid game. There's plenty of it, and it gets tough as old boots as well. [Sept 2008, p.68]
IGN
Block Breaker Deluxe is one of the better clones of Breakout to hit the scene, offering a well-produced take with some cool twists to the core theme. Shame it all has to be sullied a bit with the awkward "nightlife" theme.
Read Full Review >1UP
Block Breaker Deluxe is a little low rent, and it certainly doesn't take full advantage of the Wii hardware, but for eight bucks it's easy to overlook the cheesy decor and enjoy this solid brick-bashing entry.
Read Full Review >GameZone
From the revised control method to the innovative level design, purists will be pretty happy with the outcome of this game. Too bad there is no paddle-plug in for the Wii remote.
Read Full Review >My Gamer
Despite its flaws, Brick Breaker Deluxe is an entertaining game for the $8 purchase price.
Read Full Review >GameSpot
The nightlife theme might be a little corny, but the block-breaking gameplay offers a satisfying challenge.
Read Full Review >Eurogamer
It's surprising how much fun the simple joys of bat and ball remain, and it's surprising how nothing more than a varied selection of power-ups, some cunning level design and uncluttered gameplay can still produce something so enjoyable. I downloaded it out of duty, but have kept returning to it for fun.
Read Full Review >n-Revolution Magazine UK
Fans of the original may not like the changes, but it does have a reinvigorated feel. [Issue#25, p.79]
Nintendo Life
It may have not utilised the Wiimote as much as it could have, but the control is pretty slick still. Give it some time and it might just grow on you.
Read Full Review >Games Master UK
Strange obsession with ladies' shoes, but good, tacky fun. [Sept 2008, p.85]
games(TM)
Level design is a cut above most games of this type, using different brick properties as well as imaginative wall layouts to keep the player problem-solving and the ball in the air. [Sept 2008, p.124]
Cheat Code Central
A boring Breakout/Arkanoid rip-off in a long line of boring Breakout/Arkanoid rip-offs.
