Pure Nintendo Review: Wii Sports Resort

By  •  Wii

The first Wii Sports ushered in a new generation of video games with the Nintendo Wii.  And now Wii Sports Resort aims to do the same, but does it revolutionize Wii gaming like the first title?  James and I summarize the best and worst sports in WSR below.

Wii Sports Resort – Row 1 (Swordplay, Wakeboarding, Frisbee, Archery)

Swordplay

Swordplay is one of the more in depth sports in Wii Sports Resort, and as such, it’s one of the best sports in the game. It’s split up into 3 different modes: Duel, Speed Slice, and Showdown. Duel can be played with a computer player or with a friend. The game is simple, knock your opponent off of the platform within the time limit. Controls for Dueling are pretty simple, you can either swing the Wiimote+MP to attack or you can hold the B button while rotating the Wiimote to block attacks. So if you want to block attacks from above, you’d hold B and hold the wiimote/sword horizontally. While the controls are simplistic, there’s so much depth to the motionplus’ sensitivity that you’ll find yourself acting like you have a real sword in your hands!

Interview: Stack Smash Team Rd. 2 – New Moves, Bosses and Much more!

I had another chance to sit down with the Stack Smash team and discuss some of the new characters/bosses/moves that are available for Super Smash Bros. Brawl. If you’re a brawl fan of any kind, read below for the full interview.  For those that don’t know, the Stack Smash team works on creating new content for Smash Bros. Brawl such as new characters, bosses, levels, and now, even new movesets.

I didn’t go through and edit this time since it’s a lot longer than last time, so you’ve got the full, unedited version below :)

What do you guys think of some of the Brawl hacks you’ve seen so far?  I think the above version of Petey Piranha is pretty rad!
