Darius Knight, Table Tennis Professional: “I loved the control of the Wii MotionPlus in Wii Sports Resort – it meant I could map my movements precisely on screen. Every flick of my wrist was faithfully mirrored and I found myself having to hold the controller exactly as I would my racket to get the effect I wanted. It even reproduced a backhand with spin! I loved the challenge it presented and couldn’t put it down until I’d mastered my sport in the virtual world!”

Wesley Haeke, Kendo Champion: “When I played swordplay in Wii Sports Resort, I was surprised how realistic the Wii Motion Plus sensor made the game.
