Platform for Display:Nintendo Wii
Fun:   
I rented this game as I have skate 2 on the PS3 and enjoy it. I found the Wii version, whilst not as graphically pleasing, very enjoyable from a control perspective. They make good use of the Wiimote and the balance board option adds another challenge. Whilst I respect the gentleman's comments below I, as a non-skater, found this very enjoyable to play and have subsequently bought the game.

Skate It Review 10 May 2009
Platform for Display:Nintendo Wii
Fun:   
When I bought Skate It, I had read all of the other eviews currently on here. I was prepared to give some room for the graphics, as it is a Wii, after all, but was slightly concerned about how unlike the other Skates' it could possibly be.

That fear is now gone. Skate It is a hugely fun game, with any controller. As said by my predecessors, the Nunchuk is the best.

Some minor bad points are that you cannot do double kickflips, but the excellent and extended range of grabs makes up for it. The graphics themselves are just normal standard for Wii, do not buy or ignore the game for its graphics. However, definitely buy it, its the best game on Wii at the moment.

Platform for Display:Nintendo Wii
Fun:   
The game surprised me with it's graphics for a wii game, there quite good.
The story line is at first confusing but it all works out extremely fun.
Not as good as skate/skate 2 for x-box 360 and ps3 but controls are very fun and enjoyable.
If you only have a wii and are into skating- its a must have.

THE IDEAL GIFT
