A fun mini game collection for the whole family
3 of 5 found this helpful 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!
