Wii Sports 2

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008 by Nick Maunders

Wii Sports, definitely one of the best games to come out on the Nintendo Wii, and one of the first games for that matter. If you’ve never played Wii Sports before then you must have got a pre-owned wii or something because Wii Sports is standard with every Nintendo Wii you buy. That means that nearly everyone has played it before and I am sure that most of you agree with me when I say that it is brilliant! Even though there are only 5 sports: Tennis, Baseball, Bowling, Golf and Boxing, they are still really fun to play, even now!

So you can begin to imagine how good Wii Sports 2 is going to be, or Wii Sports Resort to be calling it by its proper name. This game features a more “beach” style and a lot of the games you play on it will be by the sea. Again the game will be 1-4 players and a lot of the games this time round will make use of the wii remote and nunchuk. There are loads of different games: “Sword Play” where you on a large platform above the water and you and your opponent both have swords, then you FIGHT! There are also a few unusual games such as “Disc Dog”. For this you have to throw a Frisbee at the right angle so that the dog catches it before it touches the ground. Another favourite will be the water skiing game in which, you’ve guessed it, you’re on …… a jet ski.

One of the best aspects of this game is the accessory that comes with it. Wii Motion Plus (you can see the picture below this paragraph). It fits on to the bottom of the Wii Remote and gives you complete control of your player. So it will move exactly where you’re moving. This can be seen the best in the Frisbee game. So if you put the remote to your knees the Frisbee will move to your knees, it is highly accurate and will double the enjoyment with these games. Apparently you will get I wii motion plus and an extended cover with each game. You can also of course buy them separately.

The game looks brilliant and it’s still in its early stages! If you have a Nintendo Wii I would seriously recommend buying this when it comes out. If you don’t have a Nintendo Wii … buy one and buy this game as well. The game is set to come out in winter 2008 so stand by!
