Adam, exactly how I felt — I played for 3 days trying to figure out “what part of playing this game is the new WiiMotion Plus?” — I just never felt any more immersion or reality at all… it was the same flick-based-gameplay that we learned from the original Wii Sports using the original Wii Mote.

Either way, I sold my Wii and all the games shortly after that experience, realizing it would never be what I wanted it to be and haven’t missed it since — except for 1 time we had friends over for dinner and they asked to play tennis… in the months it’s been gone, that’s the only time I noticed it.

My god, you are so right. I just googled to see whether I was doing something wrong.

I can’t count how many times I’ve lined up a backhand only for the guy to hit a wild forehand. So disappointed.

But ? there are other ways. In some specific situations repetitions are not needed. What is needed is just a slight change of course and you will sail to your desired treasure island. These are the tennis tips.

It is… it absolutely is. I can’t help but feel like everything Nintendo related is all about hype and not actual real-world results from normal people.

I might just be too critical, but with all the “real motion mapping” I sort of expected… well… real motion mapping or even something relatively close.
