Wii Play - Tanks! (All 100 Missions)

This is a capture of me completing all 100 missions in the Tanks! mode of Wii Play for the Wii. This was recorded directly from my Wii (not the Wii U).

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.

Tanks! is probably the best game in this title. It looks incredibly simple, but the game is actually very challenging. In the two-player mode you can only complete the first 20 stages, but in the single-player mode you can complete 100 stages in total. While this is no easy feat, the game does give you an extra life every five levels.

To earn a platinum medal in this mode, you have to destroy at least 160 tanks. However, there are 540 tanks in total. While I could have easily stopped at the platinum medal requirement, I decided to complete all 100 stages for the first time because this type of game is more my style. Make no mistake though, it took me about 20 tries to do this, and I was cursing and yelling at every death. This type of challenge can really make your blood boil. But at least it's done!
