Need 3 players for best experience
It is a great game really, there are many options to choose from and they are all fun to play. The only problem is that for a lot of these games you need 3 people to play which is disappointing when you want to just play with one friend. The wiimote that came with it though was definitely a great deal.
Best for 3 or more players
Played enough with my GF to give a brief analysis from a 2-player experience.
This game was built from the ground-up to be a 3-4 player game experience, although some accomodations were made for 2-player guests. The House Party Mode, for example, where you'll find many of the popular games including 'Name the Face' is practically inaccessible to 2 players, as most of the games there are for 3 or more players. In the other modes, including Gamepad Island and TV party, CPU opponents can be added for those mini-games requiring more than 2 players.

Wii Party On
Wii Party U is an HD version of Wii party as another reviewer said but more than that its a fun game that makes excellent use of the gamepad. The games in this party game collection and fun for everyone and the controls are very intuitive.
This game is best for at least 3 players but 4 gets you the best effect. Its deceptively fun. I didn't really like Wii Party but this game takes the good from that one and cuts out what didn't work. What we are left with is a fun game.
I will admit I would have liked to see some other things but what is here is fun and addictive. While most games are aimed at the so called "Hardcore market", this is a game that appeals to everyone. No matter who you are, you will find something to love about this game.
The gamepad is integrated into the game in unique ways, be it sharing the gamepad for turns or using it to simulate scooping water.
The games may seem childish and silly at first, but once you start playing...
