You cannot cuddle fishes anymore. No big loss there.

Actually, you can.

It isn't anywhere near as big a part of the gameplay as last time, it isn't mentioned in the manual, and the in-game instructions on how to do it are wrong.

I've just posted how to do it on GameFAQs here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=954373&topic=53374018, and here's what I said:

The in-game instructions (EU English version) say that to poke a fish you shake the Wii Remote while focussed on the fish. But that doesn't seem to work.

What you have to do is this:

- focus on the fish
- select 'Food' from the tools menu (this brings up your hand on the screen)
- NOW shake the Wii Remote

This works. It seems you can't choose between petting and poking, you'll do whatever is appropriate for the creature (finger for small fish, hand for dolphins).

Disclaimer: No liability will be accepted if you do this to sharks.
