23-Jul-2009 Watch: See a video for every sport inside We've been playing Wii Sports Resort for a fair while now and took time out from beating Miis with plastic swords to record footage of each and every sport in the package.
And so, without further ado, here's the footage, along with a description of how the controls work in each one:
Canoeing: Imagine the Wii Remote is the paddle - you hold it vertically with both hands and swoop it down on either side of your body to paddle. Paddling on the right steers left and vice versa.

Table Tennis: The Wii Remote is your bat. Simple. When you move your wrist, so does it thanks to some serious Wii MotionPlus accuracy. Top spin, backspin and slams all work perfectly.

Basketball: In three-point challenges, you reach down with the Remote, hold B to grab a ball, then flick it like a throw and release B to lob the ball. In 3-on-3 games, you tap a button to pass the ball, move the Remote up and down to bounce, and shoot in the same way as explained earlier.

Archery: Imagine the stance of a real Archer. Hold the Remote vertically with your arm out straight. Hold the Nunchuk near the Remote, grip the Z trigger and pull back the Nunchuk to draw back your arrow. Move the Remote around to aim, then release Z to fire. Works brilliantly.
