Get those visions of Keanu Reeves philosophizing out of your head and quickly use your Wii Remote to point out highlighted hexagons in a honeycomb pattern.

Watch full video here:

-If a sound doesn’t immediately accompany your click, quickly move on. Highlighted hexagons disappear quickly, and there are four other players frantically competing for the same spot.

Mosh Pit Playroom
No moshing really, more playing. Or rather, collecting 50 bouncing balls of a specific color.

There are 200 hundred balls to contend with, so things will look a little hectic trying to grab your fifty. Jumping frequently, especially when you only have a few balls left, should have you cover balls of any altitude.

Paint Misbehavin’
Two players on each side squirt paint blobs at goombas.

-Don’t wear yourself out in the beginning, as it’s about who has the most goombas colored at the end of thirty seconds. Slowly maintain your colors, and frantically defend them in the remaining seconds. If you can find an opening, shot the opposing team to stun them, but don’t linger on it.

Picture Perfect
One player, rather unfairly, squares of against three to stop spinning projections to create an intended picture.

-The three players have 9 squares to work with, opposite the single players four. Make sure to click on mistaken blocks to get them spinning again.

Pour to Score
Holding the Wii Remote like a cup, pour sand on a scale and meet the required weight.

-Turn the cup all the way to the left, at full dumping speed. Stop pouring at around when you’re 30 numbers within you goal then tip sparingly. You only have a small target window.
-Remember to hit A when you’re done to avoid careless spillage

Power Trip
One player drives around in an electrified hovercraft, trying to zap the other three off the grating within 30 seconds.

The hovercraft is a little hard to steer. Defensive players can easily double back. And be sure not to underestimate the jumpable gaps because you can also be pushed into those

Pumping Cars
Holding down the A and 1 button, pump the controller up and down with both hands to make the train car boogie.

-You ignore the screen entirely. Focus on pumping as fast as you can, as if constantly detonating a pile of TNT, using the Wii Remote sounds as your cue if need be.

Punch-a-Bunch
Hold the Wii Remote like a staff and punch a statue of Bowser into rubble.

-Don’t start delivering rabbit punches. Wait until your glove swells and when it reaches its apex unleash your blow for maximum devastation.
