------------
Tower Tennis
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - Remote Control / Sketch Artist
Objective - Bounce the ball up the tower!
Strategy - Keep bouncing the wall with the bat, holding it as straight as
           possible to go up. Blocks will get in the way, with grey blocks
           destroyed in one hit of the ball, beige two hits and orange three
           hits. You need to accommodate room for the bat as well so if two 
           blocks are next to one another then destroy them both so you can
           get through. Tilting the bat will bounce it to the side if you need
           to. Later, enemies will appear in the background which must be
           avoided.


----------
Block Star
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - The Waiter
Objective - Stack the blocks and hold them for 3 seconds to clear the stage!
Strategy - Hold the Wiimote flat and facing the screen (The Remote Control is
           easiest) and move the Wiimote left and right as the blocks fall, and
           position them side by side or on top of one another. Make sure
           there are no gaps so they are stable, and look ahead to make sure
           you can safely accommodate the next piece. Easiest way to play is to
           make them all straight and flat.


-----------
Can Shooter
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - The Remote Control
Objective - Shoot the cans and stay alive! A or B to shoot.
Strategy - Shoot the cans and projectiles to earn points, and hitting them
           in the centre will net you more points (100 compared to 10).
           Missiles and dynamite will be thrown at you which if you don't 
           get in time take you out and it's game over, so get them quickly
           (you also get more points for getting them early). There are also
           powerups - Heart Cans which add between 5 and 8 seconds (again,
           depending how early) and the Crosshair Can which makes your Cross
           Heir large, targeting several things at a time and for the best
           accuracy - so if you target three cans you get 300 points as it
           counts as hitting the centre. The final powerup is the Slow Mo Can
           which slows down the action for a short amount of time.
Other Notes - The backgrounds change every few thousand points.


---------------
Tortoise & Hare
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - The Diner A.
Objective - Follow the Commands as long as possible! Connect the Nunchuk.
Strategy - Hold the controllers out to the sides and follow the flag commands
           such as White Up (raise the Nunchuk) and Red Not Down (don't move
           that Wiimote!). If you don't do it in time you fail! See how far
           you get.
Other Notes - Move suddenly and with a lot of motion so the game can
              catch your movements with more accuracy.


------------
Balloon Trip
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - The Big Cheese
Objective - In this 3D rendition of Balloon Fight, fly as far as you can and
            earn points. Uses both the Wiimote and Nunchuk.
Strategy - Flap the controllers to fly across the stage. Flapping one turns it
           that direction. The aim is to get points, so aim for the balloons
           but not if it's risky ie. near a spark or the water (fish will
           eat you up good). A balloon is worth 10 points and getting 10
           balloons gives you a 100 point bonus. If you fly 1000 yards you get
           a bonus, plus popping enemies balloons nets you more bonus points.


-------
Pyoro S
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - The Remote Control
Objective - In this side scrolling shooter, defeat enemies and earn as many
            points as you can! Press A or B to stick out your tongue and
            tilt to aim left or right.
Strategy - Hit enemies with your tongue will net you 10 points, with hitting
           a line in one go will release an apple with 100 points. Hitting a 
           flashing line of enemies gives you an orange, which adds Mini
           Pyoro's either side that help you get more points. The giant
           nest a little way in can be used to bat away more enemies if you
           hold out your tongue. Be sure to get the oranges whenever you can
           as usually a torrent of insects follow it. Later you also face
           flying pointing insects from the sides of the screen which fire
           projectiles so take them out quickly! You'll get other colour
           powerups, such as Red which allows you to roll into enemies to take
           them out and Blue which extends you tongue (thanks Sam Chen).
           Eventually the stage will reset once you get far enough.
