The Sonic and the Secret Rings, that I purchased for the Wii, showed up yesterday. I read a lot of reviews for it before buying, including many complaining about how hard it was to use the Wii remote to control that pesky little hedgehog.
Well, after watching me play a few levels, C wanted a turn. With very little help from me he played fine, and even made it through one of the levels. The trick is to hold the controller sideways. The instruction manual (and many of the positive reviewers) points this out. Simple enough concept for a 2.5 yr old to grasp, maybe all those grown up negative reviewers were over thinking the problem ;)
