I like the training section games...especially the game where you use your raquet to aim for the bulls-eye. This is the only game that makes me move around and reminded me of the sport, Squash.

Have you sat down (or stood up) and played the golf game much? It is amazing when you get into it!

also, glad to see my poll is still getting some readers/ posters.

Have fun all.

definately golf, its always challenging, all the other games you can get good at and just kick arse all of the time, at least with golf you can sometimes stuff up and hit it too hard or not allow enough for the wind or something, keeps you on your toes i think

When you swing for the shot, try twisting your wrist forwards or backwards. Seems to work for me

This increases the chances of forgetting to wear the strap, and thus, increases the chances of damaging television/lamp/window/your own face/someone elses face.

I am yet to play a match of four-player tennis. Methinks this would be quite the romp....

Yeah that would be sweet. Use the nunchuk stick to move, The Z button to run, C to jump. Use the wii-mote to use the racquet but make it more accurate and follow your movements exactly. If you scratch your arse while playing the game it should follow your movements, not take a swing at the ball like it does now.




The cable would probably be too short if you enjoy doing proper tennis swings and really getting into the action.
But if they bring out a wireless nunchuk then you have yourself a game.
Movement would have to most likely be done with the D-pad on the Wiimote.
Plus I have never heard of jumping in a tennis game unless the character does it automatically to dive for a ball. That would be sensational.

YularaMum said: Boxing, its now just starting to get hard!



I found it really hard, until I got to around the 600-700 Mark. Then after that, I won every successive fight right up to getting Pro- Status.

Boxing is the only Wii Sports that has any real learning curve with the controls. Once you get the hang of it its a hell of a lot more enjoyable. I hated it when I first played it, but it was the first Sports game that I reached Pro Status with.

Hope they bring out a more accurate Tennis game. Fingers crossed EA sports.



I'm looking forward to a tennis game that uses the Nunchuk and with more universal swinging actions than in WiiSports tennis. I voted for bowling simply because it's the go-to game for when I have four people around to play video games. Tennis is still great in single player.

i sat at this screen for 6 minutes trying to decide between tennis and bowling. i love bowling but im yet to completely master it so it keeps my interest, tennis is really good fun tho - im keen to play 4 player, that would rock.
anywho i ended up choosing bowling. i hope my vote wasnt influenced by the underdog status of bowling. thats why i prefer not to see the results untill ive voted. maybe im thinking in to this too much...
boxing can be fun but it frustrates me. golf is boring but it works better than most give it credit for. i get bored of baseball by the 2nd innings most of the time.
