ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! THIS IS GREAT!!!!
I think that this game is great and all you who think differently need to seriously consider if you have down syndrome. This is a game about saving people. Yes there is blood, but you're inside of a person...WHAT DO YOU EXPECT????!!!!!!! Face it, we all have blood!!! If your child has never seen blood he must be visually impaired or legally blind!!!!!!! Great game, terrible reviewers! (My kids actually care about the well-being of others now) Shame on all that oppose my opinion!!!!!!!!! To all others you deserve a piece of candy. And not the generic brands you get at CVS, I mean the Hersheys that you get in a fun pack at Target for $3.29. God Bless (Except those who disagree with me, then...Satan Bless)

Hmm, this and Twilight Princess are probably the best launch games
Which would be why i bought those two on Wii launch day. Second Opinion is really more-or-less the original Trauma Center made for the Wii with changes made to graphics and story and such as that. I have to admit that I prefer using a stylus on the DS as compared to the Wiimote, but once you get used to the switch, it's fine. It's quite simply a very fun game, but it might not appeal to some tastes that don't like medical games. Content isn't much of a problem except some blood and surgery related visuals. Families who have members or friends who are undergoing some such diseases might be uncomfortable with the frankness used in dealing with the diseases, but other than that, this game is justly rated. I would reccommend Twilight Princess above all else, but if you can't find that, which is likely, Second Opinion is a very good choice too.

Sorcery referenced
One of the doctors makes reference to the head doctor practicing witchcraft. After a certain level, the doctor is seen meditating to the stars and performs a surgery after using a mystical power. For those families who are Christian, the implementation of sorcery is found in the level title and actions of one of the doctors. BEWARE.
