The editors didn't like
Some real stinkers in terms of control schemes hurts the experience
MotionPlus can lose calibration
Bringing the game to a halt while you pause and fix it

Not nearly as much fun playing on your own.
Constant recalibration
Cycling and Jet Skiing are lame ducks

Games are hit and miss
No online
Recalibration and other nagging habits
Lacks lasting singleplayer appeal
Requires extra MotionPlus accessories for multiplayer.

Abstract: Although the Nintendo Wii was quite the revolutionary console when it was released, the downside of this console was the limited accuracy of its wireless controllers. This is not to say that the games were poor but rather, it limited the player to wha...
MotionPlus is excellent when well-utilised, many strong events including Archery and Swordplay
A few so-so sports, no online play, not all games show off MotionPlus tech
Though time will tell whether it achieves the same phenomenal success of the original, Wii Sports Resort has the great same mix of innovation and accessibility. Much like how you marvelled at the first swing of the bat in Wii Sports, tossing your firs...
