Wii Sports exemplifies the basics of the new Nintendo Wii

User Rating: 8.2 | Wii Sports WII
Wii Sports is a great game that shows what the Wii can do. From basebal to bowling, Wii Sports features 5 games (along with training and fitness test). Baseball is not an actual baseball game. When you hit a ground ball and an infielder snags it, your out. No throw or anything. Pitching is ok, the faster you swing your wii-mote, the faster the pitch. Push the D-pad for the location of the pitch and a combination of the A and B buttons do the rest.

Bowling is probably the funnest game out of all the games. You actually bowl with your wii-mote. Twisting the wii-mote while getting ready to release the ball will cause the ball to curve, whether it being left or right. It features a full length bowling frame.

Tennis is ok. It is nothing like Mario Tennis which I bet will be a blast if it is coming to the Wii. The shots are softly hit and the volleys tend to be a little tedious, but fun.

Golf is solid. Your wii-mote is your stick and that explains that.

Boxing features your nunchuk controller as your other hand. You jab, hook, or uppercut by moving the controllers in a certain motion. Moving them infront of your face or in front of your body will block your opponents shots. Wii Sports is a must keep for all wii owners. It comes packaged with the Wii and clearly shows what direction Nintendo is going. This game will surely keep you and your friends entertained for quite some time.
