Looking for summer fun? This week, there’s a new release by Nintendo of one of the hot new Wii games of the year – the new Wii Sports Resort, based on the old Wii Sports.

Here there’s a lot of games from the old version that you’ll remember, in Wii Sports Resort, which updates the old Wii Sports game but includes some new games too. Wii Sports that usually was bundled with the Wii console a few years back when Wii console was first released. This Sports Resort Wii game has several new sports, and also includes some great new features to take full advantage of the also new release of the Wii MotionPlus accessory.

The MotionPlus is an accessory that gets attached to the Wii controller and helps provide a lot more control when you move the motion sensitive Wiimote Wii controller. You’ll find that this new Wii Sports Resort game has a total of 12 different sports, and now includes a few like archery, swordplay, jet skiing, and sky diving which were not in the former version.

For some of the reviewers at game sites around the Web, the reviews say that it does appear that the new games use the MotionPlus technology in a interesting and fun way, but generally they don’t go as far as some would like. The games can leave the player with the feeling that they want much more to do with the new controller and the games. The technology works best in the new included games like swordplay and archery where the better control feature makes the game a lot more interesting.

The MotionPlus also enhances the older games such as bowling and golf which are still here, and have been improved making them more fun in this version. Some reviewers report that there are some technical issues apparently which are causing problems, or at least are inconvenient, such as having to recalibrate the controller all the time. Some of the games too are not as much fun as others, the wakeboarding game and piloting a plane are not as exciting as swordplay for example.

Of course some gamers will probably be bored with more sports games and some new mini games, but there are plenty of gamers who will find that this is lots of fun with the new controller MotionPlus. For most players, the new Wii Sports Resort is worth adding to your games collection and have fun playing with lots of new sports and the new Wii MotionPlus accessory.
