The game was showcased alongside other sports demos of other sport-related minigames, which were later incorporated into Wii Sports the airplane minigame was never added into the final game, but was later repurposed in a jogging minigame for Wii Fit. History Wii Sports demo and Wii Fit īefore being given a name, a similar but less detailed version of the island was featured in a playable demo at E3 2006 titled Wii Sports: Airplane, a minigame similar to PilotWings where the player would fly a plane around an island, passing through rings on a set time limit. At the center of the island, there is a large lake, called "Duckling Lake", which contains a waterfall. To the west, a group of wind turbines and a lighthouse can be observed. To the south, a town and beach can be seen, called "Wuhu Town" and "Sugarsand Beach", respectively. At the center-right of the island, a large volcano is prominent, called "Maka Wuhu". "Wedge Island" is the second largest island of the archipelago, where the golf minigame takes place in Wii Sports Resort. Wuhu Island is a fictional tropical island that is the largest of an archipelago of various islands and rock formations. The other nine sports are entirely new and unique to the game. The only games returning from the original Wii Sports are Bowling and Golf, while Table Tennis was originally a game in Wii Play. Some sports involving more than two players support hot seat multiplayer, in which just one Wii Remote is needed and is shared among players while taking turns. In golf, the player can spin the ball by rotating the Wii Remote while swinging. For example, the game's new variation, table tennis, gives the player greater control over adding spin to the ball by twisting the Wii Remote while swinging. The new feature that Wii Sports Resort brings is Wii MotionPlus compatibility, which enables 1:1 control and allows the games to be played with greater accuracy. Most notably, in archery, the player holds the Wii Remote vertically to hold the bow and pulls back the Nunchuk to pull back the bow's string. Twelve different sports are available like the original Wii Sports game, the sports are each played by holding the Wii Remote (and in some cases, the Nunchuk) like the actual sport being replicated. Finally, the player will skydive to Wuhu Island. The first time a player starts the game, several instructional videos will play, then the strap usage screen and the Wii MotionPlus test. Wii Sports Resort is a sports video game set in a tropical resort on an archipelago named Wuhu Island. A sequel called Nintendo Switch Sports was released on April 29, 2022. As of March 31, 2021, the game is the third best-selling game on the Wii, after its predecessor Wii Sports and Mario Kart Wii, with 33.14 million copies sold worldwide, which puts it at eighteenth in the best selling video games ever.
