FlingSmash Review

GN Version 3.1

A portion of the iNintendo review:

Sound
10/15 - The soundtrack in FlingSmash creates a carefree atmosphere, but isn’t anything special.

Graphics
15/20 - FlingSmash’s visuals aren’t spectacular but they manage to get the job done, with a frame rate that is consistent throughout.

Appeal
12/25 - Only lasting a few hours, FlingSmash doesn’t offer much replay-ability, even if players are able to tolerate the amount of arm swings they’ll be making.

Gameplay
23/40 - Motion controls work well enough in FlingSmash, but don’t offer the same precision as Red Steel 2 or Wii Sports Resort. FlingSmash isn’t deep at all, either, and every level is practically the same as the last.

Overall
60/100 - FlingSmash is far from Nintendo’s first killer app for the Motion Plus technology, and isn’t even a particularly good game, either. Lasting a mere four hours at the most, combined with mindless swinging of the player’s arm, FlingSmash is one of the few low-quality first party offerings from Nintendo.
