Cooking Mama is the follow-on game after the Nintendo DS Cooking Mama game. This time mama teaches you to cook up some delicious international dishes from 10 different countries. After you've mastered your skills you'll want to see how you fair against some of the other chefs out there. With multiplayer you can cook against a friend to see who really is the grill master. With the unique controls of the Wiimote, you use it to actually move utensils to "cook."

There's something that's just so much fun about chopping up ingredients, stirring soup, etc. with the Wiimote. It's a repetitive game, but I got hooked on it. There were many times I laughed at my mistakes, like when I aggressively dumped a bowl of rice into the sink and when I put a hot dog into a bun with half of the hot dog sticking completely out of one side.
Some of the things Mama says are hard to understand, and I would have appreciated subtitles. I also did not like the extra mode where you compete with a character and try to make food quicker and more precisely than they do. Lots of just waiting for them to finish what they're doing. I laughed at how many times "American Friend" repeatedly smashed eggs on the side of a bowl.
I'm going to hear "Wonderful! Better than Mama!" in my head every time I prepare food for the rest of my life.
