But if you're looking for more than a distraction for the kids, a learning tool perfectly disguised as a game, then consider Nintendo's Hey You, Pikachu!.

Once you give it a closer look, Hey You, Pikachu! is a highly addictive game that both children and adults can enjoy.

Hey You, Pikachu is bright and saccharine, the videogame equivalent of a "Brady Bunch" marathon with a pre-sugared cereal chaser.

After forcing myself to play it through, I must admit the game has some positive qualities -- just not enough to endear it to anyone over the age of 9.

I'd rather be out mixing cement than having to deal with this control scheme.

This is a novelty. Granted, for all it's limitations, the technology does work, but this really is something for the little ones.

Unlike "Seaman," this game's voice recognition is pretty primitive.

CNET Gamecenter
Hinging on a technological gimmick and the Pokémon license, the game falls well short of the standard set by previous Pokémon titles.

The game where yelling at the television is actually productive. [Jan 2004, p.189]

Gaming Age
I had a difficult time even playing this game for more than half an hour. It's simply so boring and mundane that I can't see anyone over the age of 10 enjoying this game.

If there were some kind of branch progression throughout the game that allows you to train your Pikachu instead of just playing peek-a-boo with it, this game might have been a little more tolerable.

Even if you dig Pikachu's act, the "game" is ultimately a spirit-crushing, mind-numbing exercise in tedium.
