You have to hand it to Nintendo. Where many developers lose their way between franchise releases, Nintendo is able to zero on what made a game so popular and ramp that up for the sequel while adding enough new content to keep it fresh. That’s exactl...
Great variety of games, excellent showcase for the Wii MotionPlus, easy to pick up and play, plenty of longevity, about as fun as video gaming can be.
No online multiplayer mode. A few flat games.

Multiplayer Note: Wii Sports Resort only comes with one Wii MotionPlus (and expanded jacket for it). If you plan to do any multiplayer beyond handing the controller between individual players, you will need to buy additional MotionPlus attachments, whi...
Bearing in mind that you’re technically paying $25-30 for the games on the disc, and the rest of the price covers your first MotionPlus, Wii Sports Resort is a decent deal. Yes, a few of the games are boring or are taken from the original Wii Sports...

A Few Minor Flaws, But a Must-Have All the Same This is not to say that Resort is perfect. I found the game’s insistence on slow-motion replays to be a big time waster, especially in basketball, which replays everything you do. And each game has its i...

I was one of those people that hated the original Wii Sports. I thought it was a shameless marketing ploy in a box, a hastily assembled hodgepodge of tech demos designed to show off Nintendos gimmicky new motion controls. My demonstrations that the mo...
Great party game; Wii Motion Plus makes it far better than its predecessor.
A few fairly weak mini-games; not nearly as much fun playing on your own.
