Wii Sports

Wii Sports is one of the most popular games people tend to buy in a Wii Bundle. It is very entertaining and involves multi player interactivity to create a great atmosphere. There has just been a newer version of this game released called Wii Sports Resorts and allows the user to play in different settings and in different locations whilst doing a new array of sports. Another fitness game which proves so popular and a real hit for Nintendo. The Wii Remote is used to control your Mii character and make the moves required to complete the stages through out the game. With the newer game a new device has been developed called the Motion Plus. This small plug-in for the Wii Remote makes the game even more interactive by making every movement the player does even more sensitive to reactions.

Mario Kart

A massive game which is so much fun when you play online in comps against others from around the world.  That is the power of this technology which is so exciting and entertaining.  Mario Kart has been around for some time and was released in it’s original state on the Super Nintendo (SNES).  The game has been upgraded since then and with new courses and characters is one of the most popular Nintendo games, period.

Wii Play

Wii Play is a simple game which provides the gamer with 9 different games in one.  It gives you a introduction to the Wii Remote and reminds me of the days we had Duck hunt on the original Nintendo.  Maybe thats where the inspiration came from?  Another game which you can play for hours on end and great for playing among friends using the 2 player option.  When you buy the game brand new you will get a free Wii Remote with it.
