A solid title that uses the Wiimote and Nunchuk controls extremely well. If you're not in it for the offline 4 player multiplayer, which isnt all that great, or the level building then this is probably a rental. Though, if you want to get perfect rankings on all the levels youll likely want to make it a purchase. [JPN Import]

It may not be the most attractive game on the planet, the voice acting may bring back memories of "Barry? Where's Barry?" and the physics may be far from perfect, but the game is incredibly fun, with tons of extras and thousands upon thousands of Elebits to retrieve — and I was determined to push sleep off a little longer just so I could nab 'em.

The sort of unique, simple and fun game the Wii needs and does so well. But frustrating hitches and sub-standard graphics tarnish what could have been a classic. [Apr 2007, p.72]

Like nothing we've played before. Fun, addictive but what you see is what you get. [JPN Import; Mar 2007, p.68]

If making a mess without cleaning it up appeals to you, plug in Elebits. [Feb. 2007, p.94]

It shines brightly for a while but is lacking that extra spark that could have turned it into the cult classic it’s so desperately trying to be. [Mar 2007, p.98]

Edge Magazine
Despite the charm, and despite the sophistication, there’s no disguising that Elebits is a slightly thin idea. Although the locations get grander and the destruction more alluring, there’s little evolution in the task at hand. [Feb 2007, p.76]

Imagine trying to perform neurosurgery with mittens and this should hint at what it's like to put video bread into one of Elebits' toasters. [Jan. 2007, p.70]

Much like "Katamari Damacy", Elebits is continually taking baby steps toward bigger and better things, only without the personality. [Jan. 2007, p.64]
