 Samba De Amigo is FUN....maracas are a bit cumbersome January 6, 2009
Mom To C and V (Cary, IL United States)
I would definitely buy the game but the maracas are huge and make accuracy and timing more difficult. I would stick with the controllers only.

I have read some of the reviews, and I agree with some, but overall this is a great addition to the game. The feeling is authentic and it gives your arms a good workout. Some mentioned the poses and such not registering. That is probably because the person is not posing correctly. The Wii is very picky about the position of the pose/remotes; for example, when you move both arms left or right to do that side pose, you must twist your wrists, which will twist the remotes to face you, as well. You cannot just point left or right (leaving the remotes facing up). It took me a few times to realize that, but it DID in fact show this in the instructional portion of the game, which everyone should pay attention to. That helped me clear those poses. As for having to take the Wiimote out to change songs/mode/etc., you can simply use the up/down/left/right (+ button) to select that stuff. Ole!
 Throw directly in the trash December 28, 2008

The maracas look the part and sound good, but when you try to play Samba De Amigo with them you instantly realize how poorly designed they are. The game becomes an irritating disaster with the Samba Samba maracas and my wife and I pulled out hair out in frustration before throwing them in the trash after half an hour of trying to play with them.
The game plays very nicely without these maracas, it's unfortunate that the maracas are so bad and may turn players off the game if you only try to play it using the maracas.
It's no fun if you can't play December 23, 2008

So I tried these out last night. They are horrible. You can't play with them on the wii-mote. First the pointer only makes it half-way up/down the screen when it is inserted into the maracas. Second even if you pop it out, point to where you want to go, and start to play it just doesn't work. More than 75% of all my attempts and my wife's attempts to use the maracas fail. Neither of us could get the maracas to point left. Plus if you are trying to calibrate the controller before you start playing you will not be able to point left or right. For some reason left seemed to be more difficult to pull off than right not matter where we stood in front of the sensor bar. Luckily these are cheap, unluckily I now have two pairs of useless maracas. I guess I'll give them to the dogs to play with.
Try the other kind.... November 18, 2008

I just bought these and started playing with them today. While they are a great addition to my sombrero for playing this game, they simply do not work as well as they should. You have to pop the WiiMote out of the maraca to select options on the screen (although you can scroll with the Nunchuck instead of using the pointer). The Nunchuk is VERY loose in the handle and comes out every time you set it down.
I got only about 50% of the poses, 75% of the dances. These maracas just don't let it register like they should. I'm going to try the Dreamgear version and see if that is better.
