Samba De Amigo!  Is what I told my good Mexican friend when he asked me what I was doing.

He had no clue what I was saying, and really I had no clue either.

Anyways my point is that this game is like Dance Dance Revolution, except that you use your hands, instead of your feet.

Are you ready to forsaken your hands for one of the craziest multiplayer simulation game of maracas ever?

Get ready, this game has been improved over the decade!

Pro:	Fun controls that’ll literally make your arms very sore Lot’s of songs to play in, with plenty of difficulties
Con:	Controls can be kind of glitch/hard to get at first.

Samba de Amigo Gameplay

Controls

The controls are really easy to understand, but sometimes it’s hard to do.

• Raise the Wiimote/ Nunchuck to hit the upper circles.
• Shake the Wiimote/ Nunchuck leveled to hit the middle circles.
• Lower the Wiimote/ Nunchuck to hit the lower circles
• When playing you might get pictures of Mr. Pose swinging upwards, to the left, to the right, etc.  Just copy what he shows and be awarded!

So yeah, simple controls, but things get crazy when notes fly in all direction.  Just look at one of the pictures for an idea of the “holes”.

Gameplay

So yeah, I have no clue what’s the plot of this game, but you play through Mexican songs with your maracas!

Basically you choose a song and the difficulty.  However in career mode (basically the mode that gives this game purpose) you choose the difficulty and the set of music, and then the songs.

Finishing a set will give you another set, and a difficulty will give you a new one.

Once you chose a song, you’ll have to hit the notes when it’s in the circle.  Like DDR the closer you hit the note in the middle the better points you get.

Samba de Amigo Multiplayer

In this game you have multiplayer offline and on Nintendo WFC.  However there is no multiplayer on

Nintendo WFC (at least I think anyways), however you can download some music online, with some Wii Points anyways.

Anyways if you thought the game is fun, you’ll find that this game is even more fun when competing with your friends!

Quick Game

Choose a difficulty and then song, play it with your friends!

You can choose 2 modes, normal and hustle.  Hustle basically have you playing with Mr. Pose a lot (you’re going to doing a lot of poses).

Love Love Mode

This mode has you and a friend working together trying to get in synch.  The more in synch you are the more points you get!

Mini-game Mode

What can I say in this mode, you play mini-games specifically with the controls: like batting a piñata and posing!

Classic Mode

Personally I have never found out what’s the difference between this mode and Quick Game.  However this mode is available!

Conclusion

With numerous songs + the difficulty you’ll be spending a long time in this multiplayer Wii game before you can master this game.

I love how you play the game like a maraca with the Wiimote and Nunchuck, it allows me to work on my arm strength (big lie), but it’s still fun!

if you’re interested in this game with a large replability + fun arm aching gameplay, you should buy this game, but you can rent it first at Gamefly starting as low as $8.95 or Try For Free!
