Editorial Review:
How smart are you? Do you know more than your Grandma about world history? Does your little sister know more than your Dad about sports? Find out in Smarty Pants! Smarty Pants finally levels the playing field for people of all ages, allowing simultaneous play using age-targeted trivia plus action-based gestures, making it a truly trans-generational game made exclusively for the Wii. Tailoring questions to the contestant's age, gamers from eight to eighty can join in on the fun all at the same time. Exciting Wii gestures make everything a game, from spinning the category wheel and tug-of-wars over correct answers, to "dance-offs" for additional points. With both competitive and collaborative game modes and 20,000 questions in multiple categories, the fun is virtually endless!
ESRB Rated E for Everyone
I wish we would have rented it first it is kinda fun but gets old fast.
It is a great game to rent for a family get togeter but not such a good buy.
Great game for "mental" exercise.. If you need a game to keep you mentally "humble", this will not bore you. Frustrate, but not bore.
I am hoping for another version soon with different catagories, like history, current events, politics, TV and geography. I personally know little about "art" and "fashion" and care little about learning them. The current "Smarty Pants" asks way too many sports questions that are dated back as far as into the 20's and 30's. (I am NOT that old!) We do better playing our daughter's "age" of 34.
This "Smarty Pants" game is mostly super entertainment. But Wii, please provide another "Smarty Shorts" ASAP! Thanks for this one, though!!

So, Smarty Pants is actually fun for everyone - even fun for people who normally don't get into video games. But that's part of the allure of the Wii in general too.
This is a great game to have on hand if you're going to be having company, or a party. Just make sure you have enough remotes to go around. Also, I would not recommend it if you don't have at least four people to play it. With any less than four, it's just not that much fun.
- 20,000 questions across 8 different categories
- Multiple difficulty levels for all ages
- Supports the importing of Mii avatars
- Two gameplay types - Countdown and Wager
- Simple, easy-to-learn interface that utilizes the Wii controller well

Fun game, good questions
Overall a fun game with decent trivia questions. Plays like a game show. Neat animations. Lets you play with four Wii controllers simultaneously, allows you to use your own Mii for each contestant. Good for parties. 2008-07-22

Not a Smarty Pants..........
If you like game shows this is pretty good. The questions are agecentric, which is nice, I guess; I am going to enter a younger age, I'm tired of all the disco questions. But, we (hubby & me) had a lot of fun, it would probably be more fun with more players. 2008-07-08

Smarty Pants on the Wii is actually fun for all ages. My 60-year-old dad (who hates video games, but does like trivia) actually played this with us. He got the hang of ringing in and aiming/ using the Wii remote pretty quickly. And then he proceeded to beat us!!!
