    | Register More PlayStation Dreamcast Nintendo 64 Game Boy SNES NES NGAGE Genesis Sega Saturn Mac PLATFORM: WII CATCH AND RELEASE , like many of you, have fond memories of Sega Bass Fishing. Not only did I enjoy it in the arcades back in the day, it was also an instant must-buy for me on the Dreamcast back in 1999 with its wacky fishing controller. Problem is, like many of the games from that era, the game is extremely basic and time hasn’t exactly done it any favors.... Read more

  2. Wii Review - 'SEGA Bass Fishing'

    Since the game is a no-frills port, opportunities for expansion have also fallen by the wayside. With so many of Sega's franchises getting revivals and remakes, the calling of being able to participate in your own story-driven fishing tournament is quite strong. Heck, some sort of lasting single-player motivation would have been welcome here. Where are the unlockables? The mission modes? The cameos from Sega characters? So much more could have been done here. In the wake... Read more

    All in all, it's not a bad game, and certainly is a better catch than other fishing games in the market. At a budget price and with lack of multiplayer or online, it seems truly something that perhaps should be left for hardcore fishing enthusiasts. It's above average, and does the job well. So, fancy a trip down to the lake? Then SEGA Bass Fishing is certainly your best choice for arcade fishing in your living room. Read more

    by Jonathan Marx Sega Bass Fishing is the best fishing experience on Wii to date. The graphics are quite good, and the lure selection, variable conditions, and challenging tournament mode make this game very rewarding. Sega Bass Fishing does a very reasonable job of recreating the bass fishing experience right in your living room. That being said, I expected a lot more from the game as the title doesn't seem to be vastly improved over its Dreamcast predecessor. However,... Read more

  5. GB Review: Sega Bass Fishing (Wii)

    Some good can be said of Sega Bass Fishing, primarily its lower price-point, which may actually be $10 more than it warrants in light of its pre-twenty-first century origins. If the Wii Remote controls were incorporated more appropriately it would deserve a better recommendation, but its nostalgic Sega presentation can't hide its relative mediocrity. Read more

    Something fishy going on? Dreamcast diehards will have to prepare themselves for a big trip down memory lane with Bass Fishing. Building on the success of that game back in the 90s, and with the Wii‘s controls and remotes crying out for the arm–flapping shenanigans of a decent fishing game, it was only a matter of time before its release. So here you have classic Sega; a race against the clock, the stylised, slightly cartoon graphics, plenty of loud sound and music... Read more
