Despite some nagging issues that we hope to see corrected for the next time around, it's well worth playing as there's nothing else quite like it on WiiWare.

All in all Jett Rocket is a pretty standard platformer, with nothing we haven't seen before. But for a WiiWare game this is one of the better titles on the service.

Probably the best-looking WiiWare game ever, but still a mediocre platforming experience overall.

The basic mechanics of gameplay is a lot of fun. Too bad the style of the game is so generic. It almost looks like one of those fake videogames they show in movies. Using the jet pack to go around is fun. I found the length to be just right. I rather finish a game before I get bored of it and it kept me interested enough to finish it. It's tough being on a system with Mario Galaxy and other great platformers. Having said that, Jett Rocket is probably a better platformer than anything on 360.

When everything is said and done, Jett Rocket is one of the best WiiWare, even if it does suffer from a couple of shortcomings. Those who get past the short length of the game will find a great adventure with plenty of variety.

Jett Rocket is short, yes, but it's one of the best-looking WiiWare games.

Adding yet another top game to their resume, Shin'en has crafted a serious treat for the eyes and fingers with Jett Rocket's amazing visuals and intuitive controls.

The important thing is that it's all rather good fun, right down to the level design, colour palette and even the sound effects.

Lacks the smile to go with the style. [Sept 2010, p.99]

Jett Rocket's mistakes remind us of the N64 days, when developers were feeling their way through Nintendo's brave new 3D world. [Aug 2010, p.99]
