Some of these titles are amongst the more successful games on the platform: both Carnival Games and Game Party have done quite well for their publishers and Mario Party and WarioWare games have gained respect and sales for the creator of the Wii, Nintendo."
Perhaps the piece de resistance would be the music. There's very little variety and each tune, including the oft-used main theme, is literally a 3 second loop repeated over and over.
The zany antics of the cats may be enough to entertain very young gamers for a short time, but even at a budget price Ninja Captains is not one Wii's World could recommend.

The plot of Ninja Captains is an incoherent mess, featuring ninja cats (yes, you read that correctly) who find themselves shunted across the planet just as their city is attacked by a giant robotic mouse (once again, yes, you read that bit correctly).
Needless to say these feline ninja have to get back to their city and stop the giant robot mouse."
Very young kids may find the Ninja cats with their silly faces entertainment enough but if you found yourself blind-folded and standing in front of a pile of mini-game titles if you reached in and pulled one out it would probably be better than Ninja Captains. Team Teabag can't even call this a rushed job as there doesn't appear to have been any point to this other than an attempt to cash in on the recent inexplicable success of similar titles. Avoid.
