Forums - Nintendo - Wii Sports Resort, casual / core satisfaction

Dude, that would be so awesome. California games flashback yo, but i dk. I personally think the best there is on WSR is already seen, sword fighting and jetski's.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Nice points--I'm very excited for this title. Anyone else hope that it comes with a second Motion+? I know the Wii didn't come with 2 Wiimotes, but people are used to buying second controllers for game consoles, right?

 

I think Nintendo owes it to us to release it with a second motion +.  We are looking at £30 for a Wii remote, £15 for nunchuck and £15 or so for Motion +.  That's £60 just for a second controller.  They really should save us the extra for the second controller even if we have to pay for motion + on the 3rd and 4th.  However, as they are a business I don't see it happening.  But it does mean Wii Sports Resort won't be as much a family game as it should be since most people would only be able to enjoy it fully in 1 player as a result of not having a second motion+

This is from a thread I wrote a while back and is my awesome wishlist:

 

I'm gonna get straight into my wishlist

There are going to be roughly 10 games so I'd like to see:

 

Surfing

Use the Wii balance board to surf the waves of Resort Island.. Those without a balance board can get in on the action too with simple twists and turns of the Wii Remote equiped with Wii MotionPlus.

Have a tournament with friends one after the other on the Wii balance board or Wii Remote equiped with Wii MotionPlus. OR play with people around the world and join in on monthly competitions!

JetSki

Play for points, put your skills to the test in time trials or have a four player split screen race.. Includes Online leader boards for ring races, time trials and 8 player online races

White Water Rafting

Tame the river rapid as you plunge into its merciless waters.. With Wii MotionPlus and Nunchuk in hand, speed up and slow down your raft for optimal rafting without falling out! With Wii balance board, have more control over you rafts balance and an overall advantage over the world! Timetrials, challenges, Split screen races! Be careful not to bump your opponent too hard or you may be the one left in the drink..

Parasailing

Breeze through Resort Islands skies effortlessly as you take in the beautiful scenery of the ocean and Island itself.. Let fly from the confines of the towing boat and take part in a series of thrilling challenges all around the island.. Complete with online leaderboards and co-op (one player controls the towing boat while the other controls the sailing) where one player must control the boat through relentless waves, surfers and whales and dolfins in the surf while the other must duck, dodge and dive between birds, airplanes, balloons and Disks..

Fencing

This one is pretty self explanatory.. Hopefully including online play

DiskDog

Hopefully turned into frisbee golf or something more fun.. Otherwise includes object to throw the Disk in between and around!

Dodgeball

4 on 4 OR 2 on 2 dodgeballing! 4 on 4 only available in 4 player co-op or online play.. Take control of you Mii in a thrilling ga,e of dodgeball.. Throw the balls fast, slow, with spin, down low, at the face, what ever you like! Twist and turn the Wii Remote with Wii MotionPlus to dodge balls that are uncatchable and duck, dive and dodge your way out of trouble!

TennisPlus

Wii Sport Tennis like you know and love now with a twist! Far more responsive controls only possible with Wii MotionPlus, drop shots, lobs, backspin and slices are now all intuitive and easy to perform, just like a real tennis match! Play in a totally new way against your friends in your living room or play against people from around the world!

Volleyball

2 on 2 matches.. You only need your Wii Remote with Wii MotionPlus in hand and you're ready to go! lobs, smashes, dives! All the action you'd expect from beach volleyball in the palm of your hand! 

AND THE BIG ONE!

Paintball

Play in a 1st or 3rd person perspactive, it's all up to you! 1st person mode has a better aim while 3rd person mode has a better view of the surroundings.. Play 4 player local matches or 8 player online matches with battles taking place on the beach, in the islands town, mountains, hey stack filled farms, old army training camp and more!

 

I think it's obvious that I want to see online support, a true island resort feeling and balance board support.. AND PAINTBALL!!!

Seem to forget core crowd will buy dedicated sports games.

If they wanna Jet Ski they'll go buy some Jet Ski game, if they want to play a boxing game they will buy Punch Out, if they want Golf then Tiger Woods 2009, Tennis they has Top Spin or whatever else. They won't play Wii Sports/WSR.

Seriously somebody please rip that to shreads... There's sooo much wrong with what you just said it's not funny, meanwhile I'm going to bed :)

Also I'm gonna laugh when WSR sells 20 Million and this argument is still common. One more thing.. Wtf do you mean by 'core crowd'??? And wtf would they go buy a jet-ski game for $50 thats an incremental upgrade of one they already have when they can get WSR complete with WM+, 9 other sports games, and have a Jet Ski game that is more feature rich than Wave Race???? (The dev said it would be for those unaware)
