Madden NFL 07

"You might have some fun with this after Thanksgiving dinner playing with your cousin who doesn't really game much, but for serious football, you'll turn to your standby on the other consoles."

"Madden NFL 07 for the Wii isn't just a quick-and-dirty port. It's an excellent use of the Wii's motion-sensing capabilities that revitalizes Madden in a number of ways."

"I've been playing Madden games since the Genesis days, and Madden NFL 07 for the Wii is the most fun I've had with the franchise in a long time. Maybe it's the sheer novelty aspect of the control that has me hooked, and I'll quite possibly get tired of the game if I can't find enough people to play with, seeing as how there's no online support for the console. But on its own merits, Madden 07 for the Wii is as exciting a development in sports games as I've seen in a long time, and should be experienced by anyone with even a passing interest in a good game of football."

"Madden NFL 07 for the Nintendo Wii is a great game. The developers really took the time necessary to make sure the game felt very responsive and not gimmicky. After playing the game on the Nintendo Wii it is hard to go back to the other versions as the game now draws you in it more and makes you feel that you are more a part of the game."

"With a similar look and feel, the bottom line on Wii's Madden NFL 07 really comes down to one thing: Do the controls work? Do they work well? Yes. Absolutely,, positively, most definitely yes. Far from being more complicated than the Madden standard, if anything, the controls are a bit easier to pick up; for example, this reviewer has not been able to figure out how to perform a fair catch in the last five years of Maddens, but on Wii, it's as easy as waving the remote above one's head. EA Canada did an incredible job thinking out how to translate football plays and actions into Wii controls."
