This week, Nintendo releases one of the hot new Wii games of the year - the new Wii Sports Resort, based on the old Wii Sports.

This version, Wii Sports Resort, updates the old Wii Sports game that came with many Wii console packages when the Wii console was first released. Sports Resort has some new games, and also includes new features to take advantage of the Wii MotionPlus accessory, which is an accessory for the Wii controller that provides lots more control for the motion sensitive Wiimote controller. This new sports Wii game includes 12 different sports, including some new ones like archery, jet skiing, sky diving, and sword dueling.

Some of the early reviews have said the new games take advantage of the technology really well, but might not go far enough, because they don't offer a longer experience with the new MotionPlus technology. With the new games like swordplay and archery, the features of the better control are great examples of use of the MotionPlus technology, and also the older games like bowling and golf have been tweaked to make them a whole lot better in this version. Some reviewers though were somewhat disappointed with the fact that technical issues caused trouble, like having to recalibrate the controller constantly by setting it down on a level surface in between games. They also found that not all games, such as wakeboarding and flying a plane, are as interesting as the swordplay and archery games for example.

Some gamers might be bored with more sports, finding that the mini games are not be as much fun, and the games from the old version, like bowling and golf, don't add much. Still, using the new controller accessory means there's something new to try here, and improve the quality of game play. So, at least for practicing and trying to improve your score, it sounds like it's still worth buying. The Wii Sport Resort package comes with the Wii MotionPlus accessory included, so the $49.99 price tag might be worth it (the MotionPlus retails for $19.99 by itself). Right now, get Wii Sports Resort discounted at Amazon, with free shipping, for $46.99.

Our take is that ultimately, it is probably a good idea to get Wii Sports Resort to add to your Wii games collection and practice using the new Wii MotionPlus accessory.
