Need a new game to play this summer? Out this week is a new release from Nintendo of its long awaited new Wii games this year - the new Wii Sports Resort, which is based on the old Wii Sports.

Here you'll find a lot of games from the old version of Wii Sports in this one, Wii Sports Resort, with some new twists for this update. The former Wii Sports game was usually bundled with the Wii console back a few years when the Wii console was first released. With this version of the Sports Resort game there are some new sports, and also included are many new features that take advantage of using the new Wii MotionPlus accessory, which is another new release this month.

The MotionPlus is an accessory that gets attached to the Wii controller and helps provide a lot more control when you move the motion sensitive Wiimote Wii controller. You'll find that this new Wii Sports Resort game has a total of 12 different sports, and now includes a few like archery, swordplay, jet skiing, and sky diving which were not in the former version.

For some of the reviewers at game sites around the Web, the reviews say that it does appear that the new games use the MotionPlus technology in a interesting and fun way, but generally they don't go as far as some would like. The games can leave the player with the feeling that they want much more to do with the new controller and the games. The technology works best in the new included games like swordplay and archery where the better control feature makes the game a lot more interesting.

The MotionPlus also enhances the older games such as bowling and golf which are still here, and have been improved making them more fun in this version. Some reviewers report that there are some technical issues apparently which are causing problems, or at least are inconvenient, such as having to recalibrate the controller all the time. Some of the games too are not as much fun as others, the wakeboarding game and piloting a plane are not as exciting as swordplay for example.

If there are some gamers that might get bored with just more sports, and also just mini games, still there might be some fun in using the new controller MotionPlus accessory. However it does sound like for most gamers, this will be a great game to add Wii Sports Resort to your Wii games collection to practice using the new Wii MotionPlus accessory.
