Forums - Nintendo - I got to try Wii Sports Resort today (impressions)

I went to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom today (forever Marine World in my book) because my little bro was finally tall enough to ride Medusa. When we got there, I saw posters up advertising to play WSR at the Wii booth. I was skeptical that they got the game early, and that the posters were put up early. To my pleasent surprise, they had early copies. I got to try four of the twelve games, and the impressions are as followed:

1. Table Tennis: Not the best, but fun. The angles and timing were really well done, and it was a really heated match. Can't really say much; it's table tennis.

2. Wakeboarding: Lots of fun. Landing is pretty hard, but it's really cool to see your mii perform all the tricks. controls are percise, hences the difficult landing. My little bro and I competed for the highest score: we tied at 647 points.

3. Basketball: I tried both the shooting and pick-up game. The pick-up game is way better. You push butons to pass, but use the controls to dribble, block, and shoot. I beat my cousin 12 to 7. The shooting was really hard and frusterating. This is probably because I suck at real basketball. I was dissapointed they had a tournament on that specific game, of ALL the games, choose the one I'm bad at. :( (Winner got Wario Land and SSBB the winner was a 40-something lady who never played Wii previously at 22 shots)

4. Sword Fight: Put it this way: I would pay full price for this alone. Loads of fun watching your precise motions hit your opponent, and falling into water is fun to watch. I saw 2 little kids who obviously were used to waggle, and it was hillarious to watch each of the miis wave it around frantically.

There it is. I am even more confident of my pre-order.

How many mini-games are in WSR?

I lost my WiiSports a long time ago (Thanks Nintendo -.- ) and may want to pick this up.

*I miss bowling*



My daughter is my world.


^there are 12, but they brought back bowling and golf, making 10 new games



So the same bowling from Wii Sports is in WSR?

Nintendo should give me WSR for free since they took my WiiSports.



My daughter is my world.


Lucky!


I never really cared for WSR but I'm getting slightly more hyped up about it! ^_^
