My neighbors are out of town for the week, and they like to come to me to watch their dog because I do a pretty good job and play with the dog. I don't like it very much. It disrupts my sleeping pattern. However, this is the only way I can get some money to get Wii Sports Resort until Christmas, so I had to take this opprutunity. I'm on evening day 2 right now.

@ Onyxmeth ROFL!

i preordered it today after getting the conduit

I already ask my bro. who goes to japan this week to get one, damn i can't wait to play it anymore! XD

But you also get all those cool DS games, and the best WiiWare games (I'd have bought Muscle March at least fifteen times if I lived in Japan...).

Still waiting for any kind of announcement over here regarding GTA: Chinatown Wars, Swords and Soldiers, Strong Bad series, Toki Tori ... just to name a few. (I did buy Muscle March, however, and feel like I paid too much for it.)

But, none of that has anything to do with this thread or me finally getting my hands on WM+.

But....you get to chase a bunch of bodybuilders in speedos and strike stupid poses! It's like someone took notes on my personal fantas-

Er...what I mean to say is that I was being facetious: I know things go both ways. I'm surprised Toki Tori's still a no show, though.

gaf has got some great feedback on all the games. Cycling and archery are the only games that this guy didn't think controlled perfectly.

@ranuji, honestly WSR is the game i would prefer to have earlier. Let us know what you think and if u can pics of in store demos, etc.

Yeah, I know. I came off sounding a bit more defensive than I had intended. There's no doubt that a lot of games get released in Japan before NA, and yet it never fails that many games that I'm really, really interested in get delayed or never released in Japan.

I spent about 3 hours with WSR today during my lunch hour (don't want to hear any nitpicking about how I calculate my lunch hour ), and was able to try 9 of the 12 sports. I thought archery was fine, actually, although I only played one short round. I didn't get to cycling. I spent a lot of time with fencing, frisbee, and propeller airplane flying.

The airplane is a lot of fun,  I just dislike the 5-minute time limit. I'm hoping that the time limit will be extended or unlocked after collecting a sufficient number of items. I never played PilotWings, so I have no idea if this is similar or not. But, I think a retail or WiiWare version of a full game using this simple mechanic to just travel to different places around the world, collect items, visit people, etc. would be incredibly addicting.

Fencing (actually very similar to kendo) feels pretty accurate. All of my swings and strikes went where I was aiming.

Frisbee with the dog is cute, and a bit more difficult than I had anticipated. Frisbee golf, however, looks to be the real highlight of this sport. I'm looking forward to spending more time with that one.

Six other sports I tried but spent little time with. Golf seems to be a much deeper experience than in Wii Sports, and also much more difficult for me (a non-golfer), because the game is now very sensitive to the facing of the controller. Table tennis was also more difficult than I had anticipated; I need to learn how the game expects me to hold the controller, in order to become more consistent with my spins. Basketball three-point contest is fun, but the 3-on-3 game feels shallow. Archery was the game I was looking forward to the most after watching the E3 conferences and some videos. I found keeping my left (bow) arm steady to be the most difficult part. Wakeboarding is a blast, but you need to be sure to land your jumps at the right angle (horizontal to the surface of the water) or else you dip below the surface on landing, get no points, and lose momentum. Bowling seemed changed very little from Wii Sports (where it was already nearly perfect, I felt). I bowled only one frame, so maybe I missed something ... ?

I definitely agree that WSR is the game I wanted first, too. I was just impatient for the WM+.
However, since we got WSR first over here, I now kind of doubt that I will get Tiger Woods. Although I'm sure TW10 is a wonderful game, it seems that the 6+ courses in WSR will offer more than enough content and challenge for me (non-golfer).

I think by the time I could get around to getting any photos, etc. posted, there will already be several pics and videos of much better quality available. There always seems to be, anyway.

More updates please Ramuji. I'm in the UK so no Tiger Woods for a week and no Resort for a month.

One question. On a scale of 1-10, if Wii Sports is 7-8, what would you give this?
