It's fucking awesome... I love the game, its probably the best non Zelda game on Wii right now. The tilt sensor works great for this type of game, some of the level designs are really creative, you get a bunch of different marbles to use each with different characteristics (like speed, bounce, etc). Music in the game is pretty cool and catchy. Only problem is the game is a bit short (only 45 regular stages, with a couple bonus stages), but to try and get gold trophies in every level will take a TON of practice. The two player "race to the finish" mode is cool, as well. I definitely got my money's worth.

kororinpa works really well with the wii controls.  not very deep, fun, and extremely short.

I cant say anything that hasnt already been said, great game. One thing I dont understand is the complaints regarding the length of the game... going for gold trophys on every stage is a tough challenge and will take a while (Ive got golds up to level 27 ATM  ;) ) and

Mirror mode is unlockable to go for gold on all of those stages too!

So yeah plenty to do. The length is just right IMO

This was finally in stock for rent and I picked it up.

Really like it so far, more than say Elebits. The controls work really well and when I got to Day City and had to pull off some more trying maneuvers, I was pretty impressed by the sensitivity.It also started kicking my ass once I got to Day Town. I like the variety of balls. I I hope there is a music test somewhere. I've unlocked one secret level so far. It reminds me of the first monkey ball single player levels.

It's 30 bucks at Walmart so I might pick it up as it seems a game I could get others to play pretty easily.
