It's free with the Wii. What a great introduction to a new generation of gaming!

The Bottom Line:
"Innovative"
Instead of reviewing the games as one, I am gonna do one per game. Here I go:

Tennis: easilly the most simplest game out there. No buttons so push, just swing (or flick for you professionals) to swing the racquet. Simple and easy, just like the Wii. No wonder Nintendo showcased this game on multiple occosaions. Not much wrong with the game besides that you cannot control you Mii nor have a propper singles match. Other then that, perfect to show of the Wii.

Baseball: Swing the Wiimote to swing the bat to hit the pitched ball thrown by throwing the arm (not the Wiimote as many have done already). As with tennis, its simples and it works. Complatins are no field control nor base running. The mercy rule also sucks. And the game can be long and frustrating. Great if you have time to play.

Bowling: Bowl the Wiimote as you would a bowling ball down an alley. Release the held B trigger to release. Again, simple and it works. All motions are translated on the screen which makes spinning the ball possible. Too many buttons involved makes it harder to understand to newer players (Tennis has none). Other then that, well simulated bowling as never seen before on a video game console.

Golf: Wanna play like Tiger? Here's your chance! Swing the Wiimote like you would a club and you're on the green. Limited by holding the A button to "swing" the club to hit the ball. Easy and simple. However, putting can be a pain as it barely registers properly. Beat buying new clubs though!

Boxing: The only Wii Sports game to utilise the Nunchuk attachment, allowing to control each glove and punchs thrown. Body movements are essential to dodge your opponent's throws. A bit hit and miss experience, but any one, and i mean anyone can play, winning on many occasions are by pure luck and not skill. Fun to watch, not so much playing.

Like Nintendo's goal, graphics are not everything and gaming is everything. And this package surely does that statment justice. Pick up a Wii and pop this in, you'll have ablast, guaranteed
