If you spent all your spare hours knocking down pins and throwing curve balls when you first cracked open your Wii by going Pro in Wii Sports, then get ready — you're about to go a few rounds with Wii Sports Resort this Summer! Not to be confused with the third party title Summer Sports: Paradise Island, this game is coming straight from Nintendo and will hit the shelves July 26. Announced at last year's E3 conference, Wii Sports Resort will include Summer fun activities like water skiing, playing Frisbee with a Mii-like dog, and sword fighting. Yes, sword fighting — make up for all the times your mom told you not to play with sticks in the house!
But that's not all. Find out what other goodies are being released for your Wii this Summer when you read more.
Adding to the fun is the new Wii remote attachment that makes your movements even more realistic. Called Wii MotionPlus, this sensor attaches to the bottom of your remote and catches slight movements and enhances your playing experience. Sold together, Wii Summer Sports and Wii MotionPlus will set you back $50, but if you only want more accuracy for your favorite games (this will come in especially handy for your golf swing), Wii MotionPlus will cost just $20.

Yay! I've been waiting for more stuff to come out for the Wii so I could get more use out of it without having to pay a ton of money [ahem, Wii Fit].
1Awesome
I love Wii Sports and that sword playing sounds really fun!
2I can't believe that you won't be able to use the attachment for old games. How useless.
3I've been waiting for this game! Does anyone know yet if you can reserve it?
4ooo thanks for the headsup!
5what i want to know is can i finally compete with my nieces, nephew, brother and sis in law, or mom and cousins who live across the country!!! i want wi-fi connect on this game. otherwise what's the point!
6Swordfighting!! I need to buy a wii.
7The Wii MotionPlus will only work for the few games that will support it. That means, sadly, that it will not work with the games you have already. But it will probably work great with the games that support it.
