Is completing the circuits the way to open up all the games or do you need to do the individual character missions as well. My daughter wants to play the high jump.

Any more reviews now that people have played it longer?

In the video most of the events seemed to be a lot of running by moving the hands up and down. Is that the case? How are fencing and the other non-track games?

I'm thinking of picking this up to play with my pseudo-family for Thanksgiving.

Jared,

The triple jump is pretty cool. Swimming relays are fun. Rowing and trampoline require some quick button work. Both my kids (10 and 14) like this game. There is also a way to handicap players to even it up for everyone. The dream race is kinda like mariocart.

This came yesterday and me and some friends played it all night over a few beers. Great game, only problem is you have to play it in single player mode (I think) for a couple of hours at first to unlock all the stuff. My arms and shoulders are in a lot of pain today - it just took me about 5 minutes to put my coat on.

I've never lost the 100 meter dash with Sonic. My best time is a 9.556. Mario destroys Sonic in the field events. Playing as your Mii is pretty cool.
