Between this, Grand Slam Tennis and Tiger Woods 10, the Wii is packing some serious sports-gaming heat this summer.
That trailer looks brilliant.

I'm just so glad they're using avatar characters instead of Mario and Peach and the gang.

Here's a video of the Sword Showdown I took at E3. It's epic fun. :lol

Anihawk how did you like the sword fighting? Did you actaullyhave to black and attack with startergy? The basketball, archery, sword fighting sound shit hot. the canoing sound fun too . I think I will get WSR and VT 2009. Not a big golf fan. I hope Nintendo makes a Wii basketball game with motionplus that would shit hot. I only wish WSR had include 21 and HORSE also

The MotionPlus can read 1600 degrees of movements per second. It has no lag to speak of.

Going to play this until I bleed.
This game is looking awesome, I wish it was coming out sooner. Though...I guess it's good that nothing I really want is coming out until the end of July because I'll be able to focus on Organic Chemistry more.
I mean, I want SMT: Devil Survivor and Little King's Story, but those can wait.

Fuck all those people who said that Nintendo's E3 sucked until the last ten minutes. I actually enjoyed seeing more of Wii Sports Resort on stage. It's not just going to be another Wii Play, Wii Fit, or Wii Music. It sounds so much more varied and satisfying from a pure gameplay standpoint than any of these games, especially with MotionPlus. If the self-proclaimed "hardcore" folks don't like it, then they can shove it up their ass.
This is a big game for Nintendo, and deservedly so. That person who said it'll make the original Wii Sports look like a tech demo was probably right, and I'm glad for that. Wii Sports Resort marks an evolution of core game mechanics surrounding the Wiimote's motion-sensing capabilities, after all.

Yeah, Wii Sports Resort is one stacked game and definitely a killer app for showcasing M+. It actually LOOKS nice too, shockingly enough.
Edit: :lol It's actually kind of disturbing to be watching piles of fallen Mii's after you strike them down. :lol

Is there a difficulty setting for this? I wish the A.I. was a little bit more aggressive. Right now, the A.I. reminds me of Dynasty Warriors. Stand there and do nothing with an occasional lucky hit here and there.

The AI may get better as you get better, like in the original Wii Sports. That'd be great.Cow Mengde said:
Even if the enemies are dumb, it's not like you'll necessarily be having an easy time defeating them anyway, since I really doubt that MotionPlus swordfighting is something that you'll grasp immediately and master within minutes.

I recently got back into Wii Sports.
What a load of fun. And I hear Sports Resort is better!
Hmm.
I do wish it came with two M+, though. Whatta pain.

The thing I find humorous is there are literally thousands of posts about Sony's & MS motion prototypes on gaf, but WS:R looks like the best motion game yet released... and the best motion game for the foreseeable future, and it's a thread that's struggling to crack 100 posts. Hmm. Sony and MS will be very lucky to have a launch title that's this good. And gaf ignores it.

It seems that Nintendo knows EXACTLY what they are doing with this game, not that they usually don't, but this just seems so impressive - especially compared to Wii Sports. Looks like a much meatier game overall with some really addicting games.
I was a bit lukewarm about this game last year. Seemed okay.. swordplay intrigued me as well as jet ski, but I thought they would probably just go off the Wii Sports name and not put this much effort into it.
Can't wait for Jet Ski and Frisbee Golf.
Really glad that the plane game made it in.

Definitely going to pre-order this off Amazon at some near point in the future, looks to be a ton of value + Motion+. With a bit of luck, I hope my Wii makes it back from Nintendo's Repair Lair prior to WSR arriving in the mail.
This just seems like a game that I'd want to marathon for days at a time once I get it...just chill the hell out and take in all the events. Freaking July sucks in GA especially weather wise...

Well, right now if I preorder Wii Sports Resort and an extra MotionPlus on Amazon, I'll save four bucks.
I know I definitely want this game. So, what do you guys think? Should I go with Amazon or look for other options?

Programming and engine, really.
The same applies to the motion and pointer controls of the Wii as is. Some games are so much more responsive than others it's laughable. The tech might be there, but it still needs to be programmed well.
I figure the same will apply to MotionPlus. The tech is theoretically there and extremely precise and responsive, but developers will no doubt get sloppy and you'll end up with a ton of unresponsive crap.
I wouldn't be surprised if Wii Sports Resort's sword fighting remains the most responsive and precise on the system until either Zelda Wii or the next system.

I think there will be better deals than -$4 closer to release.Rash said:

The Airplane game sold me on this. Only downside is the lack of Little States from Pilotwings 64.

Is the standalone M+ unit launching alongside WSR? Want to make sure we're good for some two-player action on day one.
Also, it would seem if Nintendo want to make things as easy as possible for new adopters they should start packing this thing in with the Wii or redesign the Wiimote so it includes M+ out of the box...

Pre-ordered the standalone M+ from Amazon but if I were to pick up one of the game bundles this Tues, what's my best bet in terms of overall game quality and showing off the features of M+? Tiger 10, Grand Slam Tennis or VT09? I don't have any preference between golf and tennis.

JB HiFi have a pretty exploitable deal for M+.
Two games traded in for the AU$79 GST and M+ bundle. Just buy Mario Power Tennis and Trauma Centre: Second Opinion for $30 a pop at the same place, trade them in, and get the package for AU$60.
Then, if you can be fucked, resell GST without M+ for AU$50 - AU$60 and you get M+ for AU$10 to AU$0.

This is what I've been hearing but as a long-term Tiger franchise player on 360 it's gonna be so tough to deal with the massive downgrade in graphics and lack of online play. Hopefully the M+ gameplay is good enough to compensate...markatisu said:

Tiger '10 on the Wii, as far as I'm aware, supports all the online capabilities of the X360 and PS3 versions (minus the accessibility and all that standard stuff).

I've read that it's one of if not THE best-playing golf game released, at least this generation. I can do with the graphics downgrade if that's the case.

I would assume they didn't do tennis again because two of the first games to support Motion+ are big name tennis games that each respective company is betting a lot on.

But what about Golf?BrandNew said:
I agree with the Mario Tennis idea or atleast I hope it's what they are doing. Im sure Nintendo wants to strike another MK (and future NSMB2 ) sells wise game.

Make it more reliable on actual spin you put on the Wiimote.Gahiggidy said:
I don't think the spinning on Wii Sports had anything to do with how you spun the wiimote. It had to do with timing for the most part. I could be wrong, but if you released late then the ball dropped and went fairly straight as opposed to if you dropped it very quickly.
Just more accuracy, I think.
