Was I right about this game?  You be the judge!

I agree with the "C+" grade, but I didn't find it quite as easy as you did.  I actually lost a few games in the later tournaments, but that was probably due to the fact that I had troubles with the controls.  Also, after you beat the Tournament Mode on Normal, a Hard Mode is unlocked(I haven't played it yet, so I don't know how hard it actually is).  You can also play on harder difficulty levels in the Exhibition Mode if you want more of a challenge.

Good point - I incorporated that into the review.

if a game screamed out for wi-fi play then this is it. Many people, myself included, don't know that many people that are also into video games, and have a DS, own the same games, and have spare time to play at the same time. And games like this need the human element, it's just more fun. Great opportunity missed.

Agreed. I noted this in my reader review of this title earlier, and is a good reason why, even though I enjoyed the title, it ended up being a trade in later.
