Rapala Tournament Fishing Review (Wii)

Overall Score: 6/10
Graphics: 7/10
Sound: 5/10
Gameplay: 6/10

If you’re looking for a fishing game that takes full advantage of the Wii’s capabilities, you’ll be disappointed in Rapala Tournament Fishing for Nintendo Wii. Although it has the potential to simulate a realistic fishing experience, the game falls short on several areas.

On the plus side, the game offers a lot of information on real fishing in the extras area, but not a lot of that is used in-game. As it issponsered by Rapala brand lures, the focus is on the marketing aspect, and not necessarily on gameplay itself.

Some of the biggest fish in the game are really impressive as you drag them out of the water – Peacock Bass in the Amazon, Nile Perch in Africa – with superhuman strength. If only more detail had been put into skill (and correspondingly, into good motion sensing). If you absolutely love real-world fishing, you may find more lasting enjoyment with the game.
