This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
Baby Sitting Party for Nintendo Wii
Baby Sitting Party for Nintendo Wii brings together thirty short games based on a day with babies and toddlers. You prepare food, tidy up toys, push a stroller and perform other exaggerated childcare tasks. The activities use simple Wii Remote movements and switch subjects quickly. A play session therefore mainly revolves around reacting, copying movements and achieving a higher score.
Some tasks can only be played alone, while other activities offer local contests for up to four participants. Players take part in turns or at the same time, depending on the activity. The optional Wii Balance Board is used in several single-player games to shift your weight or keep your balance. Without a Balance Board, the main part of the collection remains playable with regular Wii Remotes.
The presentation uses cheerful characters, clear icons and brief instructions for every task. There is no long story or continuous simulation in which you raise one baby. Instead, you unlock and repeat separate minigames to improve scores and play together. All thirty activities are on the disc; Baby Sitting Party has no required online features or downloadable components.
Region and language
Our Nintendo Wii games are PAL editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Baby Sitting Party supports one to four players. Local contests require enough Wii Remotes. A Wii Balance Board can be used in several single-player activities, but it is not required for most of the disc.
Manual
Baby Sitting Party for Nintendo Wii includes the manual unless the product title states otherwise. If the booklet is missing, the title says “No Manual”. This lets you see before ordering whether the game comes with a manual.
The manuals included with our games usually contain at least English and often around six European languages. The exact languages vary by edition, so Dutch is not always included. The booklet explains the controls and the main rules. You can use it to check how to control the game, which actions are available and how its different features work.
The history of Baby Sitting Party
Visual Impact developed Baby Sitting Party for Nintendo Wii, and Ubisoft released it in Europe in 2008. The game appeared in North America under the name Imagine Party Babyz. This linked the title to Ubisoft's family-oriented Party series, although the European product name and packaging explicitly emphasise babysitting and everyday childcare.
At the time, the Wii was popular for collections that translated movements into recognisable actions. Baby Sitting Party therefore uses swinging, pointing and rhythmic motions for tasks that would be far more complicated in a realistic simulation. The developers kept every activity short and combined a score-based structure with local contests, allowing several players to swap quickly.
Wii Balance Board support was an extra option, not a requirement for the complete collection. The board is also limited to certain single-player activities and does not replace a Wii Remote in multiplayer contests. Baby Sitting Party remained a standalone physical release. There was no Wii sequel that added progress or extra minigames to this disc. The thirty original tasks therefore make up the complete collection.
