I just opened the package for Wii Sports Resort with my daughter yesterday and I love it.  I had been waiting several months for this new game to come out since I love the original Wii Sports (I am not alone, it was the most popular video game for a very long time).  I also was psyched about the new more accurate wii sports resort controller that comes with the game.

I like to spend quality time with my daughter and wii sports and wii fit is one way that I can have fun while doing it.  I was really looking forward to sword fighting and archery since these are some of my daughter’s real life favorite sports.  I also like that wii introduces her to some sports she could not or would not do like yoga, hula hooping, and frisbee which she shunned in real life or wake boarding which she is too young to do.  

One thing I quickly learned is that you need an extra wii motion plus accesory to add to your wii controller if you want to canoe or play a game with more than one person; the regular wii controller does not work.  You also need a numchuck for many of the games, but we already had them so I was ok.  

I found out today that the extra wii motion plus accesories for the wii motion plus controller quickly sold out in stores.  Luckily ebay always has all hot new wii items in stock and this time is no different.

Overall I think wii sports resort will be just as beloved as our wii sports and wii fit games for parent/child quality time.
