Jam City Rollergirls

Jam City Rollergirls features five real-life roller derby teams from the Women’s Flat Track Derby Association: New York’s Gotham Girls Roller Derby, Seattle’s Rat City Rollergirls, Austin’s Texecutioners, Milwaukee’s Brewcity Bruisers, and Madison’s Mad Rollin’ Dolls. Gamers can take one of the teams through a full derby season, play head-to-head against friends, or create their own custom skater and build them up until they are ready for whatever passes for the big leagues in roller derby.

Littered throughout the stages are stars, which act as stamina boosts and eventually build up enough to unleash a super boost that can propel you ahead right quick and take out some opponents at the same time. Controls are pretty straightforward: the analog stick handles turns and acceleration, you can jump and do tricks with motions of the Nunchuk and Remote respectively, and bop opponents on either side with a tap of B or Z. A quick waggle with a team mate in front of you will whip you forward for an extra little boost.
