Fun for all ages, with everyone's favourite Nintendo mascots
Stylus gives new life to on-court moves
Easy to pick up and play
The bad:
No on-line support
Shouldn't be taken as an 'authentic' basketball simulation
Difficulty is a bit easy
Long-term playability reduced
The bottomline:
Hoops isn't Nintendo's finest game to date, but it's not a bad game either. If you're looking for a fun, light-hearted sports game for all-ages, then Hoops is worth a try, just don't expect a serious basketball simulation.
