Don't know if this has been posted before. Honestly, after seeing this at E3, along with the stable of games the Wii already has, I almost wanted to see my 360 and buy a Wii. Maybe when the black one comes out.

Wii Sports Resort is a really good follow-up to the game that started Nintendo’s industry shift. It’s absolutely a better design than the original pack-in with a much larger stack of sports-inspired Wii games. Not every game is a winner, however, and a few games that hold promise don’t quite meet their potential.
At the very least it’s a wonderful demonstration of the capabilities of the Wii Motion Plus peripheral, and shows just how much it changes Wii motion sensing for the better. The device is incredibly accurate and Wii Sports Resort shows this extremely well in several games that are really fun – if just slightly shallow – sports-based diversions.

7.0 | Presentation Good enough doesn't feel good enough in this sequel. You've got a nice features list in all 12 challenges, but once again Nintendo doesn't go above and beyond. |
|
8.5 | Graphics Believe it or not, the game is one of the better looking Wii titles. Simple art style? Sure. But the visuals are pulling next-gen effects like water physics and depth of focus, all at 60 FPS. |
|
8.0 | Sound Clean, happy, up-beat soundtrack, complete with the same announcer from the first game. |
|
8.0 | Gameplay Some games work better than others, but the real champs here are Swordplay, Table Tennis, Archery, and Frisbee. |
|
7.5 | Lasting Appeal It's an evergreen title that will keep you coming back, but Nintendo could have done so much more (online?) to keep players' interests. |

7.7 |
