Wii Play - Two-Player Billiards

This is a capture of me and a friend playing the Billiards mode of Wii Play for the Wii. This was recorded directly from my Wii (not the Wii U). I'm player one and Drew is player two.

I had actually been interested in getting Wii Play since shortly after I got my Wii in early December 2006 because it looked like more of Wii Sports. However, I never got around to buying it until 2011, mostly because I made the mistake of listening reviewers who bashed the game. It's a shame I waited so long because the game is actually quite fun. It reminds me of a lot of the simple black box NES games I played as a kid.

Billiards is one of the better games in this title. It's an excellent pool game in its own right, but it's a variation of 9-ball. I would have preferred 8-ball, or at least the option for that mode, but it's still quite enjoyable.

On a control-related note, I don't release the B button as I'm thrusting the Wii Remote forward, despite what the game suggests. I find it works better if I just keep holding B.
