Wii Sports Resort is for the Core Audience

Apparently it is a First Person Adventure. Starring Samus Aran.

But, other than that, Nintendo has hinted there will be some "core" tasks. Like shooting a far away Watermelon in Archery.

Will you be picking it up?

The Wii has what? a trillion mini-game packages that will get boring in an hour?
No way I'm wasting my money on this. Archery has been done in Olympic games, I have a REAL dog to play frisbee with (again, one of the main reasons I hate all sports games), and finally, WAVE RACE NOW and the realistic sword fighting BETTER be in the next Zelda (or there will be HELL raining upon Nintendo's offices).

I really don't see the point other than something to come packaged for a peripheral that has little to no use right now and frankly is barely being supported by third parties outside of EA (and a desperate attempt to give Red Steel a good name).

Maybe. There are a few games coming out I need to put money down for, so I'll buy it eventually.

Oh wait, it's an FPS. Hell yeah I'm buying it, I need to own more hardcore games.

I've heard of a number of games claiming WM+ will be used, and a few games that will be re-released with WM+ support (and a lower cost).

Indeed. Metroid Prime Wii Sports.

No.

Metroid Prime Wii sports? Does it come with Samus Aran extreme beach volleyball?

Care to elaborate what those games are? I haven't heard of them. Not to mention I doubt WM+ will fix the inherent problems in some of them, not to mention make boring gameplay more interesting in SOME games *glares at Olympic Games*

I can't think of the names off the top of my head. There aren't many of any real merit, but I will try and dig up the names.
