Wii Sports Resort[a] is a 2009 sports simulation video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Wii video game console and is the sequel to Wii Sports. It is the first first-party Wii game to support the Wii MotionPlus accessory and the first one overall to require it,[b] which was bundled with the game.[6]Wii Sports Resort was first announced at E3 2008[6] and was released in Japan on June 25, 2009, and in nearly all other regions the following month. While Wii Sports Resort was first released as a stand-alone title, it was later bundled with newer Wii consoles alongside Wii Sports.[7]
Wii Sports Resort is a collection of twelve sports. The game makes full usage of the Wii MotionPlus accessory, an add-on to the original Wii Remote controller which gives it full omnidirectional detection. This is an improvement over the original controller which only repeated straight-arm movement.[8]
Wii Sports Resort received positive reviews from critics for the improved controls, gameplay, and graphics. As of March 31, 2021, the game is the third best-selling game on the Wii, after its predecessor Wii Sports and Mario Kart Wii, with 33.14 million copies sold worldwide,[9] which puts it at eighteenth in the best selling video games ever. Like its predecessor, Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort has known success with senior citizen.[10]
A sequel called Nintendo Switch Sports was released on April 29, 2022.
