 Good, but not Great June 18, 2008
"Good, but not Great" This game is a must have for younger kids, my 8yo triplets simply love it; and anything that challenges, or improves, thier mind is wonderful in my book! And as a 40yo, I like it too; I use it as my morning "Brain Calisthenics", every day with my coffee before work. The games are a bit limited to the point of semi-monotony, and more of variety should be included in any future versions. But my biggest gripe is never ending patronizing dialog, it takes forever to scroll through; and that is really frustrating when I am trying to fit in a few tests before work. My kids like the "teachers" boring banter, but not being able to shut it off for myself is infuriating!
 Brain Academy June 18, 2008
Pretty much a must have for anyone who owns a Wii. It is very fun while at the same time helping you learn. Who could ask for more?
good exercises June 14, 2008
Wish I could bypass the little prof babbling incessantly while moving to different portions of the academy. Other than that it is fine.

As an adult player, I found BIG BRAIN ACADEMY to be fun and I do return to play it - to get a better grade. For me, however, it does not have the variety I would have hoped for. It also has way too much filler listening to a cartoon professor who repeats himself. It does require speed of response and accuracy to score highly and the activities and general advise given by the professor are educationally accurate and sound.
 Not worth it for adults June 3, 2008

Huge downfall to the game is its lack of minigames. 15-20 for this game, versus over 60 when mario party 2 came out. Really disappointing
My GF and I, both mid 20's, thought the brain age series was worth a try. I had played a ds version in a store and liked it. This game is no better than the ds version. We also bought it to be used as a bonding experience.
This game made bonding worse. It relies more on the speed of your clicking icons/answers than it does using your brain. I dominated her because of my experience with the wiimote versus her first experience with a console system. Everytime I beat her in a game that measures your intelligence made me feel more guilty when i won because it seemed to lower her self esteem with each win. Not to mention the 2 player games require you to pass the controller around instead of using your own.
rent this and you prolly wont buy it.
