Deca Sports 2 is better than bad, but it's definitely not good. It's cool to see the developer put a little more time into the sequel's development, but the game still uses the old technology: it looks and sounds just as poor and "budget" as the original title. If this one sells expect a Deca Sports 3 on Wii – maybe you'll get enough decent mini-games to fill up a "greatest hits" Deca Sports disc. But you'll need 10 for that, too.

"Most of us have played Deca Sports. And most of us agree that the franchise is incredibly inane. Yet Hudson continues to plague the Wii, DS, and even the Xbox 360 with increasingly lame installments of its sports collection titles. When will Hudson learn that no one cares about that poor series?" - BrightHub.com
If they're making the games, clearly someone is buying them. But it sure ain't me.

DIG writes: "Hudson joined the Wii Sports mini-game fray with a much closer facsimile than most: Deca Sports. To be honest, I took a pass on the game. Like most of these, I'd rather just stick to Nintendo's waggle centric line-up. Most of these mini-game collections either over or underestimate the Wii remote's sensitivity. Deca Sports 2 doesn't do much to change my opinion though it does have one stand out game that's missing from Nintendo's lineup."
