It is very straight, with a little slope at the start. If you overshoot in classic golf, you could finish in fewer shots, just make sure you don't put spin on the ball or minimize the deviation of its path as much as possible, or you'll likely go out of bounds. In Normal Golf and Frisbee Golf, all Par 3 holes can be done in a hole in one. Wind Speeds: Any number between 0-30MPH and 0-13 m/s (in MPH realize that the wind won't blow in odd numbers) It is however, an unofficial term in select country clubs or private courses with probably par 7, 8, or 9 holes) The golf course is divided into three areas: Golf Area A, Golf Area B and Golf Area C.įlamingo: -6 (not possible here, pending validity. Another golf course is also playable in the game, made up of the original nine holes in Wii Sports. The golf course is where the first nine holes in golf in Wii Sports Resort are played. Wedge Island, where the "resort" holes are played. Please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. Three stars out of four.This page or section is under construction.

Not all the games are keepers, but there truly is something for everybody. Like the original, it’s accessible to players of any age or skill level, so anyone at your family gathering can compete. But “Wii Sports Resort” is designed for more than one player. Each sport has a decent solo mode, and achieving certain goals opens up new game variations. And cycling feels nothing like the real thing, since you’re using your arms to pedal. I’m less enamored with a trio of tedious water events, canoeing, wakeboarding and “power cruising” (jet skiing). Swordplay, basketball and “air sports” (flying and skydiving) are easier to pick up but not quite as satisfying. It takes a while to master the wrist-snap required to make accurate throws, but once you get the knack of it, you can spend hours taking on the Frisbee golf courses. Frisbee may be the most challenging entry. Nailing a moving bull’s-eye from the longest distance is a genuine accomplishment. The Wii remote is your bow, and you pull back your virtual arrow with the nunchuck. The most engrossing of the new events is archery. The updated version of golf is more demanding: You really need to focus on keeping your swing straight or you’ll be digging a lot of balls out of the rough.

Table tennis feels more like the real thing. (It’s available separately for $24.99.) When bowling, you can flick your wrist to give the ball some spin. The package comes with one MotionPlus device, which attaches to one end of the Wii remote and gives it more precise control. And the whole package is as lighthearted, fast-paced and accessible as the original. The three sports that have returned (golf and bowling from “Wii Sports,” table tennis from “Wii Play”) are sharper, thanks to the new Wii MotionPlus accessory. “Resort” is bigger, boosting the number of events from five to 12. If you’re a fan, you won’t be disappointed either. So Nintendo has high expectations for “Wii Sports Resort” ($49.99), and there’s no reason to think the company will be disappointed. A subsequent minigame collection, “Wii Play,” sold 23 million copies. With more than 45 million copies in circulation, “Wii Sports” has probably been played by more people than any game in history. And it was so easy to pick up and play that people who were once intimidated by video games started Wii bowling leagues. It served as a perfect demonstration of the new console, putting the Wii’s motion-sensing controls at the service of familiar pastimes like golf and tennis.

How do you create a sequel to a product that changed the way people think about video games? In November 2006, “Wii Sports” - the software that’s packaged with Nintendo’s Wii - introduced the U.S.
