| Hockey Allstar Shootout |
 |
 |
|
[WiiWare] Use the Wii Remote controller as a stick and take the shot as you compete in three exciting Hockey Skills Challenges. In Head 2 Head, it’s just you versus the best goalies in the world in a five puck shootout! Race against the clock to post the most goals in the fastest time! The three difficulty levels will place you against three increasingly talented goalies, each donning the jersey of their home country. In two-player mode, each player will take a turn as shooter and as goalie and the player who scores the most goals in five shots is the winner. In Sharp Shooter, you post a high score in one of three difficulty levels by breaking as many targets as you can. Each time a shot fails to break a target, an X will appear in the upper left corner. Three misses and the game is over. Power Shot has you take your best shot and watch the Shot-Speed Clock light up. You have three attempts to blast the fastest shot you can and only the best speeds will grace the high score list. [Nintendo]

IGN
Hockey Allstar Shootout is a weird release because it is completely backward from the WiiWare norm. Usually, you get an ugly game with fun controls, but this title brings to the table exactly the opposite -- specifically, a well-designed presentation and a speedy, polished user interface, but inoperable gameplay controls.

Nintendo Life
Barely functioning controls, cheesy gameplay and an unrewarding experience all add up to an inexcusable attempt to cash in on an apparently untapped market.
