The Rock Band Triple Tree Guitar Stand can securely and safely hold up to 3 guitars without worrying about scratching or damaging your them. The guitar's neck hangs off soft padded hooks and the backs are kept away from the stand by another padded bar that rests against the back of the guitar. Since the stand's height can be easily adjusted, this can be used with different gaming guitars. I personally use it for the Guitar Hero gaming system.
Made of heavy duty metal, it will securely stay in place without any worries of it tipping over. Much better "eye pleaser" to see the guitars nicely hanging on the stand than just laying around. Great buy!』
(Great Space Saver) 『This stand has a small footprint to hold 3 rockband guitar controllers. It is quite sturdy. The padding helps protect guitars when hung on the stand.』
(Rock Band Triple Tree Guitar Stand) 『The guitar stand is great for organizing the instruments for Rock Band. It doesn't take up too much space,looks good and is sturdy.』
(Rock Band/Guitar Hero Guitar Stand) 『This is a great find. It keeps my living room from being cluttered up with guitar controllers. Holds 3 Rock Band/Guitar Hero guitars.』
(Rock Band Triple Tree Guitar Stand) 『I had to have this to hold all three of my Beatles Rock Band guitars. It is well made but could be a little taller. Paul's Rickenbacker bass still barely rests on the floor at it's highest setting. Overall, a good investment to keep all three guitars from getting damaged. It's also a nice way to display them.』 『The Mad Catz Triple Tree Guitar Stand has a unique 3 guitar hanging system that will allow you to rest your Mad Catz replica guitars and basses safely and securely. The height-adjustable stand features soft foam hangers and backrests to keep your investments from getting scratched or dinged and in an out-of-the-way place when not rocking the world.』

(It might be fun for kids) 『My fiance bought this game for me for Christmas. As soon as I started to play, I was disappointed in the characters and how they all looked like kids. After playing the game for about an hour I didn't really like it and didn't want to play anymore but gave it another couple of tries because my fiance had bought it for me.
After playing the second time, I liked the game a bit better. It took me a while to grasp how to go about creating the various buildings. It's also kind of annoying how your two companions follow you around everywhere and the boy companion makes a very annoying sound several times during any game session.
This game is mostly about going to various islands, finding different items (like mana, flowers, fruit, metals etc) to use to fulfill scrolls and then you build things with premade shapes. To find the various items, you might go mining, fishing or exploring. I thought that collecting things was fun but got boring after a while. I didn't find building things to be much fun or to be very challenging. I felt this game lacked challenge.
One thing that I thought was cute was that each island had a different theme. This might be a fun game for kids, but I wouldn't think that adults would like it very much. Sims 2 Castaway is more for adults and costs less. I got that game after this one and couldn't stop playing it for a few weeks.』
(Fun for the kids) 『The game was fun and easy to follow. As far as long term once you have completed the levels its pretty boring. so its great to play through once then good to turn in for another game.』
(pretty good but a little hard) 『my name is lucy. i am 8. this game is pretty good but a little hard,the hard part is you have to use pipes and stuff to make things funtion in the game.besides that, the game is good. if you are gunna get a wii game, get this one!:)』
(charming, simple, and fun) 『While the special features found only in a Wii are not used much for this game (movement-based action, use of personalized charactersany Wii user knows as Miis), it is still very cute and entertaining for kids or adults. Like other sim-type games, you are able to customize environments and clothing of some characters and have the freedom to explore and interact, but the similarities mostly end there. You do not control all of the characters/are not able to switch control from one character to another, and there is some linear flow to the action. You are given a series of missions on each of a few locales; as you progress, you are allowed to explore new locales, as well as accumulate options from all current and previous locations.
The basic idea is to rebuild and fix different places and help the residents in each one. Sometimes that means finding objects, other times, talking with people to resolve conflicts. To build structures or machines, etc., you need to have certain points which can be found by toying with trees, plants, and other objects. You also need raw materials that are sometimes hidden, or other times uncovered by mining (you have to find hot spots and then use the controller like a little pick axe) or digging, as though for buried treasure.
Sometimes it is a little repetitive, but that is the nature of the genre, and all in all, the loose structure and dialogue keep things moving. It would probably be more entertaining if the characters spoke a real language, but apparently the makers wanted to save on having to do multiple voice-overs and translations, so that's a bit of a loss there, especially for some younger kids, but having dialogue is still appreciated. Also, having to figure out mechanical puzzles might be trickier for the younger crowd, it's fun having to use a little spatial reality logic to make things work, though it's not Very challenging.

It is such a challenge to find games that he loves because he feels he needs to play what "daddy plays". As you can probably guess, him wanting to play mature games just isn't cutting it.
We had tried the typical cute games that were age appropriate for him and he was simply getting bored with them and showing no interest at all. He apparently was wanting something that fast paced and if they could shoot or had a sword then that was all the better.
About two weeks ago I heard about the Wii game, Marvel Super Hero Squad. Let me say that this game has went nonstop in our house for the past two weeks. My two year old loves every second of this game. Ofcouse he is just learning all the Super Hero's names. He already knew the typical: Batman, Spiderman, and Hulk but this has introduced him to a wide range of characters.
His favorite for battles is Magneto. It really isn't a great feeling when a 2 1/2 year old can kick you butt at a game. If you are wondering why he likes Magneto, well it is simply because he shoots and flies. So my son never lands his man on the ground and shoots at me non-stop until my character is defeated.
This is a fantastic, action packed game for any kid. With that being said, this is not a game that my husband would purchase for himself, but our son loves it! My 14 year old daughter did get a little bored with the ds version of this game but the layout is completely different. The Wii version has been a big hit!』
(Kids game only) 『Okay I see alot of bad reviews from adults who expect this game to be good, but this is a kids game, and any kid who played this game loves it. I bought it for my 5 year old son and it's one of his favorite game on the Wii. If you're an adult who's buying this game and are expecting a mature story/gameplay, than you should not buy this game, it's made for kids and should only be played by kids. I play this with my son and my only issue is the camera needs work, other than that it's an average kids game』
(Pass on another marvel game) 『Marvel games on wii are a given PASS. Every one of them become more annoying as you play. Controls and combinations on superhero squad are just ridiculous. How can anyone think this is a fun game? Maybe if the price was below $20 it would be somewhat justified. ~$40 for this is a ripoff! Don't even bother renting it.』
(Good game but you have to read the instructions) 『Good game but you have to read the instructions. While I'm not the biggest fan of the subject matter, the game was a lot of fun and I was able to see past it. The story in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 or 2 was better .. but the game play was a little more fun in this.
The hardest part is learning the controls. Once you learn the basic structure of them, you can figure stuff out.
But you should learn the controls BEFORE you start game play. So practice in Battle mode first. Initially in Training mode of Battle mode, I was horrible. And I would rate myself as a pretty good Super Smash player. A is regular attack, B is ranged/other attack.
Here's the tricky part that I didn't get at first. Tapping forward (the direction you're facing) and hitting A or B does something completely different. Tapping away and hitting A or B does something completely different etc..
Example: Iron Man A is Punch B is Repulsors. Both are pretty weak. A and Tap Forward is charge/dash attack A and Tap Backward is uppercut B and Tap Forward is chest Beam attack... I forget what back does.
There's a combo attack. This part is a little annoying because involves nunchuck or wii-mote movement. And they're different for each character.
Iron Man A, A, A, Nunchuck move = firing rockets from his chest B, B, B, Wii-mote move = firing super beam Other things happen if you do the punch combo and a wii-mote and vice versa.
Some characters require a different combo to activate things.. mainly because their moves take too long I think. This is all in the instructions, it just doesn't give a lot of details.
Thor is A, A, A for the punch combo and B, A, B for the alternate combo (and then wii-mote or nunchuck) Tap back and B is hammer throw Tap forward and HOLD B is hammer smash... greats a small explosion.. good for lots of doombots.
Doing nothing is a block, or backing up.
Once you learn the minor things like this... it seems a lot until you get used to it. Then I found it to be more fun than Marvel Alliance because you had to actually used different strategies instead of punch hit upgrade punch hit blast upgrade.
There are other sequences where it has you move the wii-mote to the left, right or whatever to dodge a meteor or something.. those are fine with wii-motion. Using wii-motion in the main game seems a little needless.. but you can get by fine without it.
2 Main issues with the game. 1.) The levels are so looooooong. You can't save in the middle until you beat it. And if you aren't paying attention to your life (getting more life is easy if you pay attention) and are just having fun, you die and go back to the last starting point (not the beginning of the level fortunately) but that can be annoying. This happened... I didn't mind because i find the game to be fun.
2.) The Adventure game has the option of aiming where you're shooting. It doesn't work unless you're trying to shoot a shield generator. I don't know exactly how to get it to just go the way you're facing.. (like it does in battle mode) .. but using C makes you lock onto a character.. and I think punching does something too. I try to keep the remote cursor OFF the screen so it doesn't get in the way because even when you're pointing at the bad guy and shoot your laser, you probably won't hit him. So most of the time this isn't an issue.
At first when I started playing and hadn't figured the stuff out, I somewhat regretted buying it. But after I got the hang of it, I found it rather easy but still fun and still slightly challenging. I like the game play in adventure mode. Your allies actually help you. You can go a lot of places and it's not some giant maze where you backtrack all the time. I'm also impressed/surprised with what a good job they did with diversifying the characters with strengths and weaknesses.
What would make the game better (and I've been looking) would be a complete list of moves per character and how to do them. The battle levels are quite small so it doesn't give you much opportunity to figure them out while an opponent is attacking.』
(What a disappointment!) 『Pros: You get to play as the Superhero Squad characters!
Cons: Everything else! 1)Obnoxious level design. 2)Irritating controls (as always with the Wii) 3)Camera work courtesy of the blind. etc...etc...etc
How do companies release a game this broken! My son and I were very excited when we heard they were releasing this game. We collect the characters and watch the TV show and we are planning his Superhero Squad Birthday party for next month. After playing the game for about 2 hours, my son turns to me and asks in a frustrating tone, "Daddy, why is this game so stupid?"
I believe I am the stupid one for once again being burned by a company that only cares about the almighty dollar and has standards lower than my 6 year old.
Please don't buy this game. They took my $[...] dollars, don't give them yours.』 『Welcome to Super Hero City! Hero up!

(Awesome) 『I think this is a great game. I have played quite a few simulators and I do have a pretty high expectation for most air combat games, but I knew this was a video game. The play, however, far exceeded what I expected.
My son, who is six, just watches me get through the levels so that I can unlock planes for him. I usually fly the configuration with the nunchuck and the wii controller. I works the best for me. I go back and forth between simulator and arcade style.
The levels are fun and intense. I am a big WWII history buff so I enjoy the intro movies and the different planes. I would recommend this game to anyone for hours of fun.』
(A few annoying features) 『I enjoy this game, but one feature in arcade mode bugs the daylights out of me. You can be chasing a Nazi plane and have it in your sights when suddenly the game takes over your controls and says "returning you to the battlefield." You then have to wait several seconds, all while the game clock is still ticking, until you can control your plane again.
In other words, the Nazis can fly off the battlefield, but you can't pursue, even if they're in your sights. More annoying, you get no kind of indication that you're about to leave the battlefield; you'd think having an enemy plane in your sights would be a good indication that you're still ON the battlefield.』
(Blazing Angels Wii game) 『The game is fun for those who like flight simulation games. It takes a little getting use to in manuvering the planes, especially for take off and landings, but is fun. I still have trouble not getting shot down, but my husband and grandsons really seem to like it and have a good time together. Great fun for spending time with today's savy computer/gaming children.』
(Good fun, but takes some practice.) 『Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty enjoyable. I'm still having a tough time trying to steer my plane, but I'm having fun doing it, so that's what counts. And shooting down Nazis suuuuure is gratifying!』 『

(Metallica Forever) 『This game is awesome. If you love Metallica like I do, then you will love this game. I have the Aerosmith and the World Tour and this better. Its so awesome to hear the songs that I love and realize (to some degree) that I'm playing the guitar on some of my favorite songs ever. The medium game play seems to be more difficult than the medium game play on one of the other two games. Replay is very high and you will feel like you got your moneys worth. The only complaint that I could make is that you can not go online and download more songs like you can on the World Tour. ENJOY!』
(Can't Stop Playing) 『Wow! I had been debating purchasing a GH game for years now. It just seemed kind of goofy to me at first, but then I saw the Gene Simmons axe guitar (got it) and then GH Metallica came out and I had no more excuses. This game turned me into a GH gamer and renewed my love for Metallica overnight! Feel like a kid who just listened to Ride The Lightning for the first time. PLEASE PRODUCE MORE BAND SPECIFIC THEMED GH GAMES!!! GHVH is next, after that...KISS? Or Ozzy/Sabbath? The possibilities boggle my middle-aged metalhead mind! Minus one star for adding in some bands which though may have influenced metallica - are not much fun to play. Sorry.』
(If you like Metal, forget every other game and get this immediately) 『As someone who plays Guitar on Expert level, this is the ultimate Guitar Hero game ever made. Even though this game has just short of 50 tracks (compared to 85 for Guitar Hero 5), they are almost all fun to play with great note charts. Fast blasts of strumming, insane solos, fun riffs, this game really has it all. The drums charts are equally awesome and fun to play. It's almost all metal, so if you needed a variety of genres instead, you might be better off with Smash Hits, World Tour, or GH5.
One reason why these charts are so fun is because they have a lot of fun note patterns not seen in other games/songs. Playing these gave me new appreciation for Metallica's guitar skill.
The only disappointment was that Wii only gets 4 Death Magnetic songs, with no opportunity to download the rest of the album like Xbox and PS3. The songs we get are: All Nightmare Long (one of the best tracks on the game), Broken Beat&Scarred, Cyanide, and My Apocalypse. It would have been nice to get That Was Just Your Life, The Day That Never Comes, and End of the Line.
I can't think of any "nasty surprises" in this game, aside from the fact they deleted Online Band Career mode (which GHWT had). So if you want to play with an internet band, your only option is Nintendo WFC "Band Quickplay" which doesn't show your score stats afterwards. In other words, the score is virtually meaningless for internet matches because you'll never get a chance to see how the other guy did. An obnoxious flaw in the game, but not a dealbreaker by any means. It's still a blast when you get a match and the other guy is picking metal songs round after round (unlike GHWT where someone might pick On the Road Again or Hollywood Nights.)
What would really be the ultimate is if they allowed this game to export to Guitar Hero 5.』

There are a lot of different options for play and every time they fish it seems like there are new fish to catch in new places on the "map".』
(Fun game) 『This is a fun and challenging game. Lots of options on different locations and types of fishing. recommended for children and adults.』
(Sega Bass Fishing) 『This is by far the best fishing game for the Wii. It is very realistic and my 6 year old granddaughter just loves it. We've had it for about a month and it is the only game she will play. Highly recommend this game for all ages.』
(Best fishing game) 『This is by far the best fishing game to come home on ANY system. I've played all the fishing games out there (and own most of them). This game gives instant enjoyment, you can see fish in the water to know where to cast but can't tell the size until you cast. It has great underwater shots and plenty of jumping out shots as well. tournament mode unlocks more lures and gives trophys. there is no online mode or I'd never stop playing. If you like to fish and have to be inside on a rainy or winter day, then you have to buy this game.』
(Boring and doesn't work well) 『Such a boring game, sometimes hard to cast. Didn't care much for this game. Prefer the Wii sports.』 『The sun is out, the fish are biting and your tackle box is filled with 20 different types of lures. With content created exclusively for the Wii, you'll motor out, find your favorite fishing hole, cast off using the Wii Remote and snag one of four types of bass. When you hook a fighter, your motion sensor will let you know, so hang on and enjoy the ride!』

The first PM title for the N64 is one of the best Nintendo games, RPG or otherwise, I have ever played, and the sequel PM the Thousand Year Door was an equally fun and engaging entry in the series and definitely worthy of the PAPER MARIO title. However the third entry in the series, Super Paper Mario, disappointingly does not live up to it's predecessors and the Paper Mario name.
When I, like a lot of you PM fans out there, heard of a new installment in the series, I jumped for joy (right onto a goomba!) The first two Paper Mario games are RPGs laced with Mario themes, great music, and lots of nostalgia. I am not the biggest RPG tycoon out there (I have dabbled in Final Fantasy and yes, POKEMON) but I do love Nintendo and Mario, and Paper Mario was a proud achievement for both. I also love all the Super Mario Bros./World/ and even Land titles. Seemingly, a combination of old school side scrolling Mario mixed with the great RPG elements of Paper Mario seems promising. Sadly this titles mix of genres is a let down and seems to be a dark spot for both Nintendo and the Mario franchise.
**For a quicker review feel free to scroll to the bottom. I will admit this is my first review so I'll probably be a little rusty and rant a lot but I'll try my best.**
Starting out with the story... well, it's not that great. Peach being captured is somewhat cliche I know but at least previous story lines offered enough to make it acceptable. This time though it's a little goofy. Instead of the antagonist being someone memorable like Bowser, Wario, or even WART! (btw why are Wario and Wart ignored as potential antagonists anyway?) Instead we have Count Bleck... who is pretty lame. His motives are to steal some book that tells the future and take over the world... Actually maybe he has the book already but he needs to make Bowser and Peach marry each other to... make a magic... black heart...You know what? Forget the storyline it sucks and no one cares I'm sure.
In terms of game play gone are the familiar turn based battles from the previous PM entries, no more goomba, koopa, or other fun Mario enemies-turned sidekicks to help you out in your quest, no Flower Points for special moves, no Badge Points for...BADGES! no more great music that you can't get out of your head minutes after putting down the controller, no more... ok I'm rambling. the point is this title sucked out what made Paper Mario games great. What you're left with is an odd mix of side scrolling Mario with a hint of RPG elements. Granted there are some Paper Mario elements but not enough to slap on the name PAPER by any means.
The battle/upgrading system is rather clunky. Super PM changes the system that made previous PM installments fun for the worse. When moving through the levels you jump on enemies to defeat them like a Super Mario Bros./World/Land title, however since some enemies are stronger than others they take more jumps to defeat. So you just jump around till they're gone and then what happens is your score goes up, then when you get a certain amount of these generic points you level up and your HP goes up or your attack power... this is good and all but it doesn't really make a difference. You're still going to jump on enemies to defeat them, it doesn't really matter if you can make one less jump because your power was upgraded by a point. HP is also pointless because like other Super Mario titles you find mushrooms once in a while to bring your health back up. This defeats another RPG trait, Items! You can probably go through half the game without using ANY, that's right, ANY items. Health items are pointless because as I said, mushrooms appear once in a while and goombas and koopas don't really damage you at all anyway and since this doesn't incorporate turn based battles you can simply skip defeating an enemy all together. Also special items to attack enemies are pointless because it is much easier and less time consuming to just JUMP! I say time consuming because when you use an item you have to go through some gimmicky Wii mote shake fest. Then of course there's the side quest fun items that always gave PM some replay value. Star Pieces and Badges are gone though, instead we have Catch Cards... what these do is...well pretty much nothing. When you get an enemies catch card you do more damage or something, but this doesn't really inspire you to catch em' all. There's about 250 or so of them which is absurd for something that doesn't do something great like a badge. Oh, and as usual there are recipes you can make but by the third PM title, does anyone really care about making food? As you can see, there really isn't that much RPG or "Paper" about this PM tittle, and while we're on Paper, it doesn't even appear in the literal sense. Some people complained that the original PM title lacked a lot of paper elements to justify the name, PM the thousand year door fixed that with the ability to shape shift origami style into paper boats and planes. This title however should be called PIXEL Mario, because all the animations, backgrounds, etc. are pixel based. There is literally nothing paper about this title, and if they couldn't make this even more obvious that the P stands for pixel... your unmemorable not interesting side kick thingys are called, you guessed it, PIXELS! I honestly think the only reason they didn't change the name of this title is because people like PAPER Mario and they like SUPER Mario..however this uninspired mash up of the two series isn't as creative as it appears.
You may notice I haven't touched on the big 3D flipping ability which is supposed to make this title stand out as "innovative"... well that's because it's a waste of words. It offers nothing but cheap problem solving. If there's something you can't get around, flip on over to the barren 3D landscape to simply walk around it. Oh, and here's the kicker, you are for some reason TIMED in 3D mode. If you stay for more than 15 seconds you lose health, why? I haven't the slightest clue. Probably because after 15 seconds you realize how much flipping to 3D sucks...
**Simply put this game doesn't live up to the Mario name, it doesn't live up to the Paper name, it doesn't even live up to Super. Fans of Paper Mario should stay away or at least be a little reluctant, and I know some of you out there are just like me, a completest. You find every star piece, badge, etc. and also you have every game. However I can't help but feel ripped off with this title, and sadly I even bought the unnecessarily large guide book (like I said, completest, I like to thoroughly conquer certain games and Paper Mario is one of them) So die hard PM fans that are also completests, go for a rent to make sure, who knows you might actually dig this title (doubt it though). As for fans of non RPG Super Mario games, stay away as well. I've read reviews from gamers like you and I assure you this will be a let down. It's not fast pased with fun level designs and coins, fire flowers, and all that great stuff so stick with New Super Mario Bros. Wii for your side scrolling fix. The bottom line is this title had a lot going for it, hell you got to admit flipping between 2D and 3D SEEMS innovative and creative... but, it doesn't work that well. I also can't help but bring this game down for fooling unsuspecting gamers with use of the words Super and Paper. And I know I put this game down a lot but it does offer some fun once in a while but only for it's side scrolling (Super) side, but there's too much that slows it down and when comparing it to any other Super/Paper Mario title this game is just a let down. With a different name would it be a better title? Eh... at least you would know what to expect that way. This titles odd mix of two great Mario series comes together in an average package that you probably will put down and forget about after chapter 3. A 3 out of 5.』
(Not for young kids) 『My son begged for Super Mario Bros. Unfortunately, he asked a year too early. I got him this game and it was not a wise choice. He was 5 and just learning to read. This game is FULL of reading. The story line is narrated through word bubbles; the characters talk to each other through word bubbles; the directions from signposts are in bubbles. If you can't read, you can't play this game. It's a fun game. I enjoy flipping between dimensions. The plot is fun and the scenes change in the spirit of the original Super Mario Bros. Older players will enjoy this game in the spirit of the original adventure.』
(Ok Game) 『I love the original Mario games for the older nintendo. This game is different and at times you get lost in where you are going. The first few levels pose little challenge. Will be looking forward to the release of the new Mario Brothers for the Wii Nov 15th.』
(Super Paper Mario is pretty good) 『This is a 1 player game that lets you go through a story, and there is a lot of story telling. Keep an eye out for shortcuts, and flip often to see what can not be seen when normal. Lots of key to memorize and story to follow. I give it a B+ rating.』
(Best Mario Game in Years) 『I have been playing Mario games on different platforms since the 80's and this is by far the best Mario game to come out in a long time. This game is a must!』 『The newest chapter of the Paper Mario story isn’t just out of this world…it’s out of this dimension!
