Product Description
Platform: Nintendo Wii | Edition: Collector's Edition
Manufacturer's Description
Bond is back and so too is the most influential first person shooter in console history. Years before Halo, GoldenEye on the Nintendo 64 was the multiplayer game of the age. Many games since have tried to emulate it but until now it's never had an official update.
Despite having been in business since 1988 this Derby-based developer is something of an unsung hero. They specialise in licensed games and have worked on everything from Lethal Weapon to Batman Begins and Ice Age. They have also created a number of different James Bond games.
 GoldenEye returns, except nothing is quite the same... |
 The multiplayer mode has all the classic villains and guns |
 The updated story mode looks and plays better than ever |
 Silenced weapons and new stealth attacks are essential |
Although the basic design of the original game is maintained this is no straight remake, with every element of the design and graphics revamped and improved for the modern age - with a new cast including Daniel Craig as Bond. With plenty of surprises for even the most avid fan of the original this still manages to retain the unique mix of action, stealth and world-beating design.
Of course GoldenEye wouldn't be GoldenEye without its multiplayer mode, with the classic four-player splitscreen mode back and playing better than ever. For the first time though there's also an eight-player online option, for the ultimate Bond experience.
Key Features- Dr Yes: The best Bond game ever, and one of the most beloved first person shooters of all time, returns with a whole new makeover and mountains of new features.
- Thunderball: The ground-breaking single-player mode returns in a way you've never seen before, with new story elements, new moves, and some of the best graphics on the Wii.
- Screen Giants: The classic four-player splitscreen multiplayer returns with all your favourite, levels, weapons and classic Bond villains such as Odd Job and Jaws.
- Golden Gun: Use the controller of your choice from a Wii remote to a Wii Zapper, Classic Controller, GameCube joypad or even the limited edition Golden Classic Controller Pro.
- Hollywood Talent: Daniel Craig takes the role of Bond, with Judi Dench as M. Plus the original film's script writer Bruce Feirstein is back to update the story for 2010.

When it comes to videogames, there is nothing I enjoy more than a good remake of a classic game. I'd rather have a remake of a superb, 13 year old game (like N64's "Goldeneye"), than a new and original but lousy one. This has been done a few times before with great results: PS1's "Resident Evil" was remade (from scratch) for the Gamecube in 2002, PS1's "Metal Gear Solid" was remade (from scratch) for the Gamecube in 2004 (under the name "Twin Snakes"), and PS1's "Silent Hill" was remade (from scratch) for the Wii in 2009 (under the name "Shattered Memories"). This remake of "Goldeneye" is just as good as those. However, this is more than just a remake of N64's "Goldeneye" from 1997. This is like "Goldeneye" + "all the other cool stuff from the James Bond-franchise" thrown together in the mix and shaken (not stirred). Classic guns (including the golden one) and characters from past Bond-movies are playable in the multiplayer mode. These characters include:
-Jaws (That big scary 7'2'' tall guy with metal teeth played by Richard Kiel in "The Spy Who Loved Me" (1977) and "Moonraker" (1979))
-Francisco Scaramanga (Played by Christopher Lee in The Man with the Golden Gun (1974))
-Oddjob (The Hawaiian guy with the lethal hat played by Harold Sakata in Goldfinger (1964))
-Ernst Stavro Blofeld (This is the Blofeld played by Charles Gray in Diamonds Are Forever (1971).... Read more ›

Single player is great, but multiplayer is where the fun really starts! Don't expect this to be a straight remake, there's different weapons, levels, everything is different. But the fun is still there. The gold classic controller is great too, can't get enough of it!

When I say "Forget the game," what I mean is merely that I bought this item purely for want of the controller, I do not mean to cast aspersions on the game, as I do intend to play it and from all of my research it seems considerably good. The controller itself is excellent. Not only does it look amazing, some think it's tacky, I do not, but it also feels effortlessly comfortable and is really a step above and beyond the standard Wii remote for non-motion-sensor-gaming.
With the recent announcement of the Wii U's backwards compatibility to all Wii-brand controllers, not to mention its rumoured 50% better (than a PS3) graphical capabilities, getting used to a more traditional game pad such as this might well allow greater enjoyment of this future console.
For now though, this controller is second only to the GameCube controller for Smash Bros. play, so when prices are low on this product, or if you'd rather buy the classic controller pro in black Nintendo Classic Controller - Black (Wii), I would certainly recommend it.

At first when i heard someone was attempting to remake the famous Goldeneye from the N64, also known as one of the best and most influential shooters ever, i was not happy. I thought although this sounds good on paper its not going to work.
HOWEVER! I was wrong! And im so pleased to be wrong, this game was great!
It could've been so easy to ruin this game but instead have created a well thoughout game.
Its more like a brand new bond game with elements of the original rather than being a straight remake. When you play the game you kind of forget its a remake then BOOM you will see something that reminds you of the original!
They have really pushed the wii to its limits the levels are quite large which i cant believe the wii can handle!
The story although slightly changed is still true to the N64 version.
The gamplay is exciting, i thought it was abit metal gear solidesc. multiplayer is a laugh great fun.
Its great that the wii finally has a solid shooter like this.
If you liked this check out Metroid Prime Trilogy, House of Dead Overkill, CODBlackOps, Conduit, Sin and Punishment2.

this game is utterly incredible! brilliant graphics 4 a wii game, really brings it to life. u can use the wii classic controller with it which is awesome, amazing multiplayer levels, really good campaign mode. i was expecting it to be the same as the 64 version, just with better graphics, but it really wasn't. you can do stealth attacks, be silent, even screw silencers onto you p99!
u can tell which level it is, but they've really made this different and really good. granted, it'll never be as good as the ol' 64 version, but i still love it.
my favourite feature though is the ability to play 007 classic difficuly, where your helth is shown onscreen and doesn't regenerate like on the N64. You can even get body armour, ffs! the only bad thing is that you can't take cover like in QoS, but since this is largely based around door, it would make the game too easy
this game is incredible and you should buy it if you like fps games youll be stunned by how good it is
