Our old wii has only 5 games including boxing, bowling, (boring golf 🫢🤭) and baseball. Well, this one features lots more (at least 12! and with different variations) including archery, cycling, canoeing, wakeboarding, air sports, table tennis, and so on. Really good quality and easy to use, great fun for our whole family 😊

Wii Sports resort has that classic Nintendo feel with some unique twists that make it the perfect party game. From the moment you start the game, the new motion plus technology is front and center. Having you skydive your Mii onto the island is a great way to demonstrate the new Motion Plus features in the game. As expected, not every one of the mini-games in the collection is going to be your cup of tea, but everyone should find a few that are fun enough to keep you coming back again and again. For the casual gamer looking for a quick fix, this is an ideal title. Some of the games take better advantage of the controller than others. For instance the archery portion is particularly inspired. You can feel the creaking of the string as it pulls taught and the twang of the bow as you let your arrow fly. Outstanding! The Jet Ski obstacle course is a lot of fun as well. The golfing module is quite an improvement from the original Sports version and is my next favorite module. I have Tiger Woods 10 which is fantastic, but sometimes you just want to fire up the Wii and smash a few drives. The island concept is charming and there are some thoughtful touches, for example, there is an option in Sports Resort that automatically imports Mii's posted online to the Check Mii Out channel who can then wander into your game as spectators. It was quite fun to see Mii celebrity spoofs suddenly appear in the audience or towing you from the motorboat in the wakeboard game. What a cool concept! Most of the events take place on different portions of the island, so the views are constantly changing and give you a real sense of place that helps the immersion factor and ties everything together nicely. Overall I'd give this title a 9 of 10 and a good value for the money. Thanks Nintendo!Read full review
I've played this game a couple of times, and going from no Motion Plus to Motion Plus is a challenge. I was used to the golf game in Sports, but it got boring after going thru the small number of courses. If I can get the hang of it, I won't go back to golf in Sports. My only complaint is Archery. I'm a lefty, and the controls are set for a righty. The character on the screen is also shooting as a righty which makes it even more awkward. Everything I've tried to reverse hands hasn't worked. Anyway, my daughter is only 3 and loves SwordPlay. My favorite is basketball. There's enough variety here to make something within the 12 games enjoyable for anyone who plays. Ebay has the best prices and availability. They seem sold out at all the stores. You won't be disappointed with this purchase.Read full review
I purchased Wii Sports Resort specifically with the TWO 'free' included Wii Motion Plus, and it has been an excellent game so far. Included are 12 games, 10 of which are new and two of which are updates to the classic Wii Sports games- golf and bowling. I feel that Wii Motion Plus adds a lot to the gameplay for the golf game. More sensitive controls make it far more challenging endeavor, adding somewhat to the realism of the game. Also, I find that it is a lot more enjoyable to swing the club in this game than it was in the original. In bowling, it is much easier to add a spin to the ball. Of the additions, I would say that archery and swordplay are standouts.
Wii sport resort is an interesting game remenisent of its predisesor. The motion plus adapter makes a noticeable difference, and many of the games allow in game calibration. For example, in the sword fighting game, simply centering your sword and pressing down on the d pad, re centers the remote. And handy feature to have. The games included are swordplay, wakeboarding, frisbee, archery, basketball, table tennis, golf, bowling, power cruising, canoeing, cycling, and air sports. Although some like cycling seem like your just swinging your arms around for an extended time, several of the games are quite fun and interesting, my personal favorite is the swordplay. For those familure with the previous wii sport, you'll find the golf and bowling to be a new challenge, but a bit less finiky then the previous version. My recomendations for this game, is if your going to buy it, be sure to pick up an extra wii motion plus, as the games are much better in two players.Read full review
