Wii Sports game description

There’s more to this game than the giggle producing title. Wii Sports is a four-player game that includes baseball, tennis, and golf as well as a game called Airplane, which is basically aerobatics. Wii Sports will include a feature which will allow players to create a caricature face for their in-game character. The faces can be stored in hardware, and may be usable for other Wii software.

  • Tennis (1-4 players): Players grab the controller like a racket and swing – the game will register forehands, backhands, volleys, lobs, slices, spin and power depending on how fast the user swings and at what angle. Don’t worry about moving around the court to get to the ball – the game automatically moves players into position.

  • Baseball (1-2 players): Grip the controller like a bat and swat fastballs out of the park in a home run derby. Timing and bat speed will make all the difference between going yard and whiffing, so keep an eye on the ball and swing for the fences. In the two-player game, one player pitches and the other bats.

  • Golf (1 player): Step up to the tee, hold the controller like a golf club and swing naturally to smack the ball onto the green. The harder players swing the club, the farther the ball will fly, so be sure to take some practice swings before going for the pin. After reaching the green, line up putts carefully, practice the stroke and try to hole out.
