Whether you play alone or together with your friends, you'll definitely find something to suit your taste, be it a medieval knights game or an ultra-modern space shooter. Compete with other knights to beat the Evil Wizard's challenge in Templar Bashing. No hazard gets in the way of the dutiful Pizza Jungle Delivery company, not even the fierce savages who won't tip. Outsmart your competitors in RC Buggy Madness. Demonstrate your skills and reflexes in Lumberjack Trials. And of course, no adventure is complete without some deep-space alien-bursting action in Whirling Rangers. [Nintendo] Expand

    Five dull offerings ranging from racing to shooting games, none of which are worth discussing in any real depth. [July 2010, p.95]

    Neither of the five games is ultimately bad, but no one is good either.
  3. None of these games are completely terrible or broken, but the gameplay and presentation scream out that this compilation is an afterthought; a shameless cash-in.

    So, 5 Arcade Gems? Not at all. 5 Weak Mini-Games All Dumped Into One Download. Not worth your cash.

    These minigames are too clunky and slight. [Aug 2010, p.103]
