Great display of the system's technology
So it breaks down into five sports: tennis, baseball, bowling, golf, and boxing. Tennis, bowling, and golf are up to four players, and the other two are two player. Each of the sports has a set of training games to practice your skills as well. As you play, you earn or lose skill points. If you reach 1000, you become a pro.
Tennis is played as doubles. You can choose between 1 game, best of 3, or best of 5. You swing the controller to make a forehand or backhand hit and serve the ball. The practice games include hitting consecutive serves, hitting targets, and hitting a target wall.
Baseball is a three inning slugfest. You do not actually do any fielding in this and baserunning is dependent on how long it takes for the characters to find the ball. Your pitchs include a fastball, screwball, curveball, and splitter. The practice games include homerun hitting, accuracy hitting, and speed hitting.
Bowling includes a regular rules, 10-frame event. You can position your player left and right and rotate their body. On the follow through, your tilting or angling of the controller will change the direction of the ball. The practice games include spare pickups, power strikes, and accuracy spare pickups.
Golf can be played in either a 3-hole (novice, intermediate, or expert) or 9-hole set. You have choices between the driver, iron, wedge, and putter. The wind is important to remember when driver because of the great effect it may have. The practice games include chipping onto the green, target practice, and putting practice.
Boxing uses the nunchuck controller attachment. You spare against opponents of increasing toughness and intelligence. The match takes place in 3 rounds of 2 minutes a piece but you can go for the KO. The practice games include practice punching, hitting the bags, and dodging.
There is also a Fitness Test which includes three of the minigames randomly. You can only take it once a day and the calculation of your age may not be accurate. It can still be really funny if your age if completely off.
The game uses the Mii characters you create on the main menu. You can keep records of all of your accomplishments and even adjust your look and take your character online.
The positives are that anyone can play this game and all of the minigames are enjoyable. The graphics may be a little childish, but they are clean and smooth. It takes some work getting use to the controller, but you will get the hang of it.
It comes with the system, so you are going to play it anyway, but you should feel comfortable because it is a solid game that has a lot to offer. I would even buy it on its own if it was not bundled.
