RealGamers: Samba de Amigo Review

RealGamers writes: "Samba de Amigo is the re-release of the Dreamcast game of the same name released in 2000, whereas at that time it cost you £100 pounds for the game and the hardware needed! Now, it is being sold on the Wii with a much more reasonable price tag!

The premise of the game is very simple, the Wii remote and nunchuck become maracas in this game and you must shake them in time with the song. In a similar vein to the Rock Band/Guitar Hero and dancing mat games, it is all about your sense of rhythm and timing. On the screen there are 6 coloured circles in rows of two, the left hand circles are selected using the nunchuck in your left hand and the right hand circles are controlled using the remote in your right hand. The top two red ones are selected when you hold the remote or nunchuck vertically upwards, the middle yellow circles require you to hold the remote or nunchuck horizontally level and finally the bottom two yellow circles are selected by holding the remote or nunchuck vertically downwards. It's a lot simpler than it sounds!"
