To kick off this celebration, Balloon Fight\u2122 is now available for purchase in the Nintendo eShop on Wii U. You&#8217;ll need lightning-fast reactions to win this battle in the sky! Maneuvering an airborne character to pop your opponents\u2019 balloons before they pop yours sounds easy, but don\u2019t be fooled by this game\u2019s simple premise or cute visuals. Underneath these elements you\u2019ll find a surprisingly challenging game with strategy to spare. After mastering the easy-to-learn controls, you&#8217;ll still have to get a grip on the game\u2019s impressively realistic physics as you to face ever-increasing enemies and environmental hazards like lightning and water.
