Hasbro Family Game Night 2 Wii
A follow-up to Hasbro’s Family Game Night, Family Game Night 2 brings a whole new slew of classic board games to Wii. Games included are Operation, Jenga, Bop-It, Connect 4×4 and Pictureka. All can be played in a variety of ways, including single player variations and Game Show Mode, which allows multiple players to utilize their Wii Remote and favorite Mii in a game show hosted by Mr. Potato Head, where players must show their skill at all five of the games to win.
Gameplay
Hasbro Family Game Night 2 allows up to four players to enjoy family-friendly board game action on Wii in two different ways. The first is directly through the five classic games included. These include: Operation, Jenga, Bop-It, Connect 4×4 and Pictureka. Just get your players together, pick a game and let the fun begin. Within each of the five games is an option for classic gameplay, just as you remember it, and all-new “remix” versions special to Family Game Night 2.

Players can also incorporate play of these games into a grander gaming experience with Family Game Show Mode. In this mode players import their favorite Miis from their Wii into a game show hosted by Mr. Potato Head. Movement of individual Miis around the game board is linked to success in shortened play sessions of the five games. Players take turns spinning an in-game wheel, which chooses each game session, with the first player to make their way around the board winning. The game also features a mini-game option allowing a single player to unlock additional body and face pieces to customize Mr. Potato Head as they like.

Review by PRT for Hasbro Family Game Night 2

I was a fan of the first Hasbro Fam. Game Night..but the 2nd one is great for both single and multiplayer…You can actually play a random selection of all the mini games within the classic game as single player now. You can use your own mii! The controls are great…and I’m nostalgic about being awarded prizes for all the different Mr.Mrs. Potatoe head faces I can make.
I can’t stop playing bop it, pictureka or Jenga…But as mini games…in remix mode…all the games flow together seamlessly…much better than the first game.
More mini game collections should have this random remix option for all their games to keep it fresh.
The first one, wasn’t as fun playing multiplayer, but this one definitely got it right.

They improved and fixed a lot of things in this game compared to the first one. I really like Operation, Pictureka, and Jenga. The controls are pretty smooth, and the graphics are good. I would have liked to have seen a larger collection of games included, but overall it is a nice addition to the Wii library as far as family gaming goes. We have played it with players as young as ten and as old as fifty-six and so far everyone has enjoyed it.
It is a nice addition being able to unlock different pieces/collections of Mr. Potato head.

Ok, I wrote a review a few days ago asking if anyone else was having contriol issues, especially with Bop-It…well, last nite I was playing again and I figured it out, for SHOUT-IT, I was moving my arm up w/ the controller, and it was not registering, you have to just move your wrist…and guess what? I now LOVE THIS GAME!! Bop-It & Pictureka I can play for hours (which I was doing last nite)…yeah I can get the same experiance if I bought original versions of these games, but to have them all in one place that you can play on the comfort of your couch is the best part. Plus you can play the Remix versions of the games, it mixes it up a bit (especially Pictureka). Would definitaly recomend this game.
You can also create your own backgroung music playlist from dozens of different “songs” – some annoying (like the game show songs) to some that are more fun (the Horror and Superhero themes). Also, you unlock new items for your Potatoe Head to customize him as you please, not like the first game where you can add new stuff to your room. I like this way better cause how you customize him he stays like that in every game you play. I also like you can play you Wii in the Game Show mode.
Basically all I can say is give this game time. The first few times you may get frustrated and give up (as I almost did) but once you get the hang of it, it can be hours of fun for everyone!!

I bought this game for Christmas 2009 based on other reviews and wish I wouldn’t have wasted my money. It is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to control the thing. Pictureka you try to click on the right thing and it clicks on something next to it. Connect 4 it will never drop in the right slot. Operation…I know they say “it takes steady hands” but I think they designed it for a pediatric brain surgeon. Jenga, same as Operation. The only thing that is mildly entertaining is the family game and watching your Mii cheer or hang its head in shame. I don’t recommend this game to anyone…even the pediatric brain surgeon. It is just plain not fun.

These games are way better in person and not at all exciting on wii. Jenga is way too hard and not fun for any age. I had much higher hopes for Operation, but they changed it too much. My family won’t play this game ever again.
