Nintendo Land

This is a collection of single- and multiplayer games set in a virtual theme park called Nintendo Land. Players guide their character through “attractions” based on various Nintendo franchises (e.g., The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Bros., Donkey Kong). In one mini-game, players use a crosshair target to fire energy bursts at nearby opponents (characters blink and tumble to the ground when hit). In another, players use a sword and/or bow and arrows to defeat bobble-headed enemies (e.g., giant spiders, skeleton warriors); battles are sometimes accompanied by colorful sword-slashing effects. In the Pikmin attraction, there is a depiction of a brown blob that resembles animal droppings.
