Just as Wii Sports served as an introduction to the Wii, Wii Sports Resort serves as an introduction to Wii MotionPlus. Nintendo constructed a game full of several sport-themed mini games, all aimed at teaching and showing off what Nintendo's newest peripheral can do. Wii MotionPlus is a peripheral released by Nintendo to fulfill promises made back at launch, of truly realistic motion detecting.
Wii Sports Resort may have been a sequel (of sorts) to Wii Sports, but it takes what Wii Sports did so well, and as a true sequel should, takes it one step further. By providing more variety, and improving on existing games, Wii Sports Resort ends up with a whole greater than the sum of its parts. (Not to mention the great price of $50 for the game and a MotionPlus adapter.)
Nintendo could be sitting on a gold mine with a past favorite.
Because we all miss accidentally throwing our Wiimotes at the TV, so let's throw some Joy-Cons.
I was always confused by Nintendo’s decision to kill the franchise. “Super” stayed with Mario titles even after the Super Nintendo. They can still use the Wii name. Hell it’s been so long that releasing a new one, or even an HD remaster, will tap into that nostalgia market.
Yeah i agree but i don't think Nintendo will be bringing wii sports to the Nintendo Switch samething goes for diddykong racing
With the Switch bringing interest back into the realm of motion controls, it seems as good a time as any to dip back into the backlog and retrieve some lucrative nuggets from the one that launched the phenomenon in the first place: the Nintendo Wii.
A short time ago, NL reported on the news that Nintendo had secured trademarks for The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks and Mario Vs. Donkey Kong which covered applications such as a ‘program for home video game machine’, ‘downloadable video game program’ and ‘program for smartphone’.
I would hope for a twilight princess hd port for the switch? But uhh....the mobile part worries me.
