I didn't buy it, it's just there.

Is there some kind of automatic free trial or something? If so, that's awful nice of them.

It was doing the yellow downloading light when it was on standby earlier...

That should be the auto-download functionality, which Nintendo included in the last update. You must have pressed the "agree" button, when it asked you, if you want to get free demos and stuff. Should be the demoversion of WiiSport U.

Cool, as long as it's free, works for me! Just gotta keep an eye on that hard drive capacity...

You have 24 hours to try out the games (Tennis & Bowling). If it's 24 hours from when you downloaded it or when you first fired it up I do not know.

Read a week or two back that, yes, it would just appear if you had the last update so sounds about right.

You don't have an external HDD? That's pretty much a requirement for any next gen system.

How do the controls in tennis compare to table tennis on sports resort ?

It is from first launch of the game, think it is when you launch the perticular sport too. not the 'main menu' so to speak..

I don't plan to download alot of games, so 32GB will probably be enough for me. If I do run out, then I'll get an external HDD. Don't wanna risk buying something I may not need.

that's pretty cool that way most people will know about it even if they never see a commercial or spend time on the game sites
