Nintendo Wii "Fishing Master" Review

Ever since I was a little girl I have loved to go sit out by a pond and fish. It never really matter to me if I caught anything or not, it was just fun trying. I've tried different video games to replicate the real act of fishing and found them rather boring and quite unrealistic. However, the Nintendo Wii has a version of "Fishing Master" that really caught my attention. As video games go, this is as close one can get to fishing without having to deal with worms, hooks, and tangled line.

There are really two types of formats when playing fishing video games;

1) an arcade type of game that can be fun, but lacks reality and

2) realistic fishing modes that can make you feel as though you are actually catching fish.

The Nintendo Wii has combined the two to make this video game experience something fun for whatever type of mode you wish to play in. The characters themselves are cartoon in creation; however the act of using a fishing rod makes the video game more realistic for the player.

There is only one mode of play in this video game however there is a setting for multiplayer's in the Battle mode. In the single player campaign mode the player advances through the stages by catching different types of fish. The video game offers tournaments and challenges throughout the game play and players earn points which they use to buy items such as bait and other specialty items.

Players stand facing the water and as the player moves from end of the beach to the other, they will be able to catch different fish from those points. The fundamental aspects of the video game are very easy to learn right from the start.

The Nintendo Wii's version of "Fishing Masters" is what I believe the most entertaining and realistic approach to video game fishing; it is fun, challenging and creative. It is as close as you might get to the real thing without having to fight bugs, baiting hooks, and smelling like you've rolled in dead fish. The only problem there is that I can see is that you'll have to buy fresh fish from the market if you want to have your catch as dinner.
