A package that isn't completely terrible, nor is it remarkable in any way. The mini-games that are included are fairly simple to play and could have been a lot more fun if the controls had been fine-tuned. Conversely, while the controls can be frustrating at times they don't completely ruin the experience, especially when playing with friends.
Kids deserve better than this. Neighborhood Games is a cheaply produced collection of mediocre games, and you'd be better off spending the cash at Walmart on a set of horseshoes, lawn darts, bocce balls and a basketball, because the real games are far more rewarding than these poorly controlling virtual representations. Neighborhood Games doesn't stand out from the crowded field of mini-game compilations. It misses the simple elegance of Wii Sports by a mile and tries to cover it for it by throwing more at you.
That "more" isn't better and will only be a fun diversion for a few plays until it sets in that better options are available. User Reviews. Write a Review. Positive: 2 out of 2. Mixed: 0 out of 2. Negative: 0 out of 2.

Keeping with the neighborhood theme, every available mini-game is at least loosely based on something that you might find neighborhood kids doing to pass their free time. Players start out with five events to choose from consisting of lawn darts, horseshoes, shuffleboard, bocce, and basketball Every event in the game comes with three different difficulty levels to tackle but successfully completing them on their easiest difficulty is all that is required to progress.
Once this victory has been achieved, players will unlock the next event in its series. For example, beating lawn darts unlocks dart ball, which can then be completed to unlock water darts. There are three different events for each type of activity found in the game and combined with the three difficulties apiece; total completion should take you at least a few hours of gameplay.
While each event has its different difficulties and unlockable variants, the fact still remains that everything in the game feels basically the same. Every mini-game involved in the single-player aspect of Neighborhood Games borrows its controls almost directly from Wii Sports Bowling. Everything from throwing a lawn dart to shooting a basketball is handled by having the player hold down the B trigger, swinging the Wii-mote forward and up in an underhanded motion, and then releasing the B trigger.
Logic would dictate that if every mini-game uses the same controls as a two year old game Wii Sports that already got them right, everything should work rather well. Unfortunately, this is just not the case.
