    It is a fun game.

    You *MUST* have the WiiMotion attachment to play however. The game does come with 1 WiiMotion attachment.

    Single player is fun for awhile but you'll soon be wanting to play multiplayer. Unfortunately each controller needs a WiiMotion attachment @ $20/each.

    there are other titles carrying (or that will be carrying) the wii motion plus.

    according to Wikipedia:
    "limited edition versions of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 (in Europe and North America) and Grand Slam Tennis (in Europe).[5] Red Steel 2 will also be bundled with a Wii MotionPlus upon release."

    At this point, I wouldn't think there's much point in picking up an adapter if it doesn't come with a game.

    This was on sale on Sunday from 10am-2pm at Toys R Us, $50 with $20 gift card which you can use to buy another wii motion.

    #3 True, but the bundles are $9 more. It is a bit of a savings if you want those games. PGA was very highly rated.

    The WiiMotion only works on a few games so far:

    Wii Sports Resort - you MUST have the WiiMotion to play
    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 - optional WiiMotion
    Gland Slam Tennis - optional WiiMotion
    Virtua Tennis 2009 - optional WiiMotion

    I own all 4 games and the WiiMotion makes the biggest difference on Tiger Woods due to the ability to slice, hook, fade and spin shots more accurately. The 2 tennis games not so much.

    Sports Resort has 12 mini games - Bowling w/ more accurate touch on curving the ball as well as Golf and Aerial flying (a secondary game to the parachuting game) respond the best to the WiiMotion, e, make the biggest difference.

    Some games like Archery, Fencing, Canoeing, Jet Skiing don't even make use of the WiiMotion at all really.

    My daughter works at Best Buy and even with her employee discount the Grand Slam Tennis was $43 with no WiiMotion. Grand Slam has some very favorable reviews especially compared to the Wii Sports Tennis. Cant wait to get it but waiting for the games to come down a little in price.

    Just bought this and played it for 2 hours. Bought the TW 10 bundle and now have 2 motionplus and 2 games for $120.

    Sports Resort is a must buy. It will make you remember the day you got your Wii. Table tennis is good, frisbee is excellent (esp disc golf) and Bowling, although almost the same, has a new 100 pin game that is quite fun.

    Off to try TW 10.

    I haven't booted up my Wii in months. This is a great reason to dust it off and try again!

    I bought Tiger Woods 09, and was extremely disappointed in how they effed the putting up. The online function was pretty good, but it seems like the WiiMotion with Tiger Woods 10 is the way to go. I also saw a commercial for the Sports Resort game, and it looks like it could be pretty fun.
