That's... interesting. I knew the tennis game by EA was coming out before Wii Sports Resort, but I didn't think it would be a whole month across releases.

New condoms included with the thing, by the way:


Hopefully they are easy to cut out.

Do we get a Wii condom with Resort as well? Why is it so irresistible to call the jackets condoms? Do we know what's freaking on Resort yet? Will this be the last straw that makes me get a job again? $80 is a lot for a controller, isn't it? Isn't it impressive how I turned that last one into a question?

Well, we could call them "Sleeves," "Skins" or whatever, but I don't think anyone plays with them on the Wiimote long enough to actually treat them with respect. They're just annoying. When I got rid of my Wii, I had like... three laying around.

It's more penis shaped than ever! But holycrap... 80$ for a full control set?

It's a family oriented, Multiplayer oriented console... do You realise that just to have 2 players playing a full Wiimotion Plus game, it would cost more than buying a Full guitar hero world tour PLUS guitar hero Metallica?

It costs more than Buying TWO Gene Simons axe Guitars for guitar hero!

WTF Nintendo!? This is turning to be the N64 expansion pack all over again...

Even if Nintendo gave me a reason to buy this(throwing a frisbee just doesn't cut it) I wouldn't. The Wii itself was supposed to be a "new evolution in video game control." Two years from now they'll admit that they still didn't nail it but don't worry because now with the Wii motion ++ we finally have it figured out.

Somehow I doubt that. Mainly because two years from now it's time for another round of new consoles whee! So we'll be getting the Yai, with integrated gyroscope controllers, Yai Games pack-in, and a whole gig of flash memory, all for the low price of $350. And the Xbox Pentagon and PS4.

Also, stick dueling is enough for me to buy this. Just because I can see how it's price gouging doesn't mean I can't see that hitting people with sticks is fun.

Have you tried buying a stick?



I won't lie, I have no reason to even have my Wii anymore. I mean I haven't actually played Madworld yet but the only thing it does now is hold VC games and Pokemon Ranch.

Do it. Now. It's good for your soul.

Something tells me this is going to revert into being yet another "Nintendo are money grubbing whores who've forsaken quality in favor of profits" thread.

It doesn't roll off the tongue as well as the original, but it's pretty much what I was thinking.
