Overview

Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party (referred to as RR: TV Party from here forward) is an addition to the Wii-based Rayman Raving Rabbids series, following Raving Rabbids and Raving Rabbids 2. In addition to the TV-based theme uniting all of the minigames, this game offers users the ability to include the Wii Fit (Franchise) Balance Board peripheral in gameplay. It was notably marketed as the first videogame to allow players to play using their butts.

The Minigames

The minigames in RR: TV Party are divided into 8 different TV channels. Each 'channel' focuses on games utilizing a particular type of control. In each channel, games are classified by difficulty, represented as "air time". The later it airs, the more challenging it is. Each channel is labeled in quotes.

"Jam Sports"

Sledging Games (1 player, balance board support) In the sledging mini game, the player's Rabbid travels down a mountain on a gnu. The objective is to pass through the gates and perform tricks when jumping off of ramps. The player holds the Wii Remote like a key and turns it to steer. Tilting the remote back will accelerate. Players using the optional Wii Balance Board control option will have to shift their weight side to side to steer and towards the back to accelerate. The midair tricks are done by correctly executing the Wii Remote and Nunchuk motions portrayed on-screen. The different courses available are:

Mount Behind
Mount Kushibut
Mount Kilimanbotty
Breakbutt Mountain

Missfit (2 players, balance board support) The show Missfit is presented by Chuckie Morris. One player acts as a gym instructor while the other acts as a student. The trainer will choose a couple of positions or movements that the student will need to hold/do for a certain time. Optionally, the Balance Board can be used to incorporate additional motions and positions. At the end of the game the trainer can elect to rate the student and give bonus points.

Tractor Racing (not the ingame title) (1 player, balance board support) Race a harvesting combine around a track while attempting to mow down the other racers in 3 laps. You control your tractor by holding the Wii Remote like a steering weel. Braking and acceleration are mapped to the 1 and 2 buttons. Optionally, the Balance Board can be used to brake and accelerate, simulating pedals. Drifting (Concept) around turns nets you boost, which is applied by jerking the Wii Remote downwards. There are several different tracks in the tractor race mini game, including Strawberry Fields, New Jersey, and Woodstock, South Dakota.

Boardwalk Catwalk (4 players) Each player's objective is to reach the end of the catwalk before the rest of the players. Photographers will intermittently take pictures, and failing to stop and pose for the photographs will not only result in a poor picture, but something comically heavy will fall on the player's Rabbid, impeding his or her progress.

Lotto Ball minigames (not the ingame title) (4 players) Each player's Rabbid is wearing a giant bouncing 'lotto ball' suit as they race through a sidescrolling platform level. Throughout the level are a large number of white balls that players attempt to collect in order to gain points. The levels are also full of hazards such as lasers, bumpers, fragile walls and floors, and giant fans. The game can get particularly heated with four human players. At the end of each level there are four gates that open slowly. Bonus points are awarded for being the first player to make it through the gate, leading to a hectic scrum at the very end of each level. The Rabbid's left-and-right navigation is controlled with the Nunchuk and bouncing is controlled by a downward thrust of the Wii Remote. There are several levels for this mini game that vary in difficulty:

Little Big Jackpot
