The two games that have been taken from Wii Sports and given a MotionPlus-enhanced upgrade - bowling and golf - have much steeper learning curves, now that the game knows everything your body is doing when you swing your club or throw the ball. Still haven’t gotten that stamp for bowling a 200, though. Winning a stamp for picking up a split spare in bowling feels great. These are naked copies of the Xbox 360’s Achievement system, but still entirely welcome. The latter is more difficult to achieve, because as you increase your level of skill, the game throws more skilled computer opponents at you.Įach game also has five “stamps” that you can earn.
I am a Pro in archery and working towards it in bowling and table tennis. As in the previous game, you can take your character to Pro status in each game, by playing it over and over and improving your scores. What do you see instead When the ball was hit by the player the FPS strangely drop down to <30.

I can say for sure that Nintendo has improved the single-player experience.
Please share your experiences with wii-mote plus or the resort games where calibrating the controller doesn't solve your problem.While these games typically thrive in a room full of people, I played Resort solo only. I'm wondering if this might be a problem with the wii-mote plus technology and that I am possibly wearing the remote out from overuse, though this is just speculation.Īnyways, thanks for reading through. Points are scored by either hitting the ball past your opponent, or if your opponent returns the ball without allowing it to hit your side of the table. You must also win by at least 2 points, or you'll have to keep playing until someone does. You must be the first player to score 6 points. I've tried replacing batteries and reloading the game, but I haven't reached a conclusion on why this is happening.

Now, there is a possibility that this is just player fatigue on my part, but it does seem as if the "sweet spot" vanishes. The ball releases more "dead" and doesn't break back as much into the pocket. The problem though is that at some point while playing, it acts as if the lane conditions have changed, and it becomes less responsive to the curve. I am impressed with how the system is sensitive enough to register any small variations in your throw which makes it very difficult to roll a perfect game. My technique involves moving over to the first arrow left of center, aiming at the first arrow right of center, and throwing a "handshake" toss that curves into the pocket. The other glitch that I'm not as sure about is in bowling. Frustrating, and it sours my overall opinion on the technology. There's a certain satisfaction to mastering a game, and with the higher level opponents returning virtually every shot you send them, I'm typically unable to get through the match without it glitching out. The only way to restore order is to quit and restart the game, which makes me think the controller is not at fault and this is more of a shortcoming in the software. What's odd about this is that recalibrating the controller will not work. It appears that there are 2 versions of this glitch: the full flip as mentioned, and sort of a 90 degree twist, where you can continue the game if you are willing to turn sideways looking over your left shoulder as you play. It is as if it has forgotten if you are left or right handed! It is not a perfect 1:1 reversal, so even if I wanted to get creative and switch hands mid-match, it will not react properly. The problem though is that at any point in the match, the game will lose sense of the controller calibration and "flip" the paddle on you. You can actually get a pretty good workout playing it. First, for table tennis, once you get up to around level 1500, it gets pretty intense. I'm getting frustrated though with a couple apparent glitches in the game. I've had the wii console with Sports Resort for about 3 months and my son and I have been gaming it up pretty hard.
