Product Description
Discover the beauty of the sea and take part in various activities such as swimming, exploring marine life or cataloguing tropical fish with this new Touch! Generations title. The beauty of Endless Ocean is that you can do as much or as little as you like. The relaxed and calm atmosphere of the game gives you the freedom to explore special locations such as shipwrecks and underwater ruins, discover and interact with sea-life, complete fish logs or simply relax in the soothing environment. The game begins with you onboard a diving boat, with a crewmember that provides advice and tips on finding the best locations for fish and helps you advance the storyline. Assume the role of the diver, opting to go into the water to explore sea-life at your own pace utilizing tools such as a camera or fish bait. In the cabin on the boat, you can access the fish log to check out the fish that have been spotted, as well as carry out missions like photographing marine life. These missions unlock content, such as new items to use underwater, or different diving gear that can be used to customize your diver. Navigate through the depths using the Wii remote and guide your character using the pointer's cursor, visible as a bright blue dot. Interact with fish or plants and discover new species while building up your fish log. Befriend companions like a dolphin which will become your partner and with whom you can train and swim with. The Wii's unique Wi-Fi Connection Service allows players link up with your friends. By exchanging friend codes, two players may dive and explore the ocean together.
Looking to kick back and relax? Endless Ocean features several soothing modes. On the deck of the boat is a deckchair that allows you to sit and watch the sea. Alternatively in the aquarium section of the game, you can select fish they have seen and add them in an aquarium for a closer inspection. The relaxed setting is further heightened with a

 Great Game!!!!! September 6, 2008
This is a great game. It is ultra fun and relaxing. You can do so much! I have two partners, a dolphin, and a false killer whale. It is cool to go under water,and ride on some whales or fish. The only problem is when a friend comes over wifi, You cannot chat, and it is easy to get lost from your partner. Overall, this is the best game i have ever played and You should buy it. Note that you do not want to rent the game though. It is hard to "finish" the game.
GREAT GAME!!!!!
For Wii, Beautiful and Peaceful...But not Action August 29, 2008
Of the 8 or so Wii games I have, this is probably my favorite for graphics...which says quite a bit since Wii definitely has the worst graphics of the platforms. The dialogue and general storyplay of this game does lead a lot or a bit (respectively) to be desired, it still was fun to play.
This is also not a game for someone who has a short attention span. It does require you to search around for different fish, animals, or items. If you don't have the patience, then you might want to pass this game up.
It's addicting! August 18, 2008
I kept avoiding renting this game when my kids wanted to because it sounded boring, like watching a fireplace on TV, but finally gave in. Wow! I'm glad I did! It's alot more than just sight-seeing. It's a treasure hunt, dolphin training, and much more! And yes, very addicting (I found I had passed 3hrs of time playing while my kids slept Saturday morning!)
The only bad points: The people are a bit wooden (WHY don't Wii people TALK instead of having to read the text?! and who cares about 'earning' a new hairstyle?!), and the fact that if you don't save your progress you have to start over/go through all the training exercises, even if you know how to do things (having watching another play)
Definitely one of those "fun for all ages" and very informative (IF you can get your kids to stop and actually read all the information on the various fish!)
Educational August 16, 2008
I purchased this game for our son who is 7 and loves animals and fish, to be honest the 1st time we played it we were a liltle worried....but as time went on we found our way. Our son loves it, and gets a kick when he can check his book to see what new animals he had found. The best part is when you get to train your diving partner. It has become a contest to see who can fill their book up the first. High recommended : )
Peaceful, but a little bored August 12, 2008
Everyone else said the same thing. It's a little bored. But if you are tired and just want to relax, this is a good choice.
