Wii Sports Resort Video Guide

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.

Wii Sports Resort: SkydivingGameplay footage
1:16  Gather all your divers and pose for a photo

Skydiving: Rotate the Remote to tilt your Mii's body, steering him into other divers to grab them. Simple, but satisfying.

Wii Sports Resort: CyclingGameplay footage
1:07  Endurance races test your stamina and strategy

Cycling: Holding the Remote and Nunchuk, you alternately beat shake your hands - like you're beating a drum - at different speeds to pedal your bike. Go too fast and you lose stamina hearts, so it's all about pacing yourself.

Wii Sports Resort: FlyingGameplay footage
0:57  Swoop over Wuhu Island, grab items or fight others

Flying: Again, it's simple - just hold the Remote like a toy plane and tilt it to fly. Collect info points, shoot and burst balloons or challenge others in dogfights.

Wii Sports Resort: Power CruisingGameplay footage
1:26  Race or Jetski through rings in a slalom course

Power Cruising: Holding the Remote and Nunchuk horizontally like handlebars, you steer to turn your Jetski, holding A to accelerate. Twist the remote back to rev your boost, which charges up fully every few seconds.

Wii Sports Resort: GolfGameplay footage
1:17  Is now much better with the Wii MotionPlus

Golf: Exactly as before, you hold and swing the Remote like a golf club. Only time the Wii MotionPlus reads even the smallest of movements.

Wii Sports Resort: BowlingGameplay footage
1:12  More accurate controls thanks to Wii MotionPlus

Bowling: If you don't know how to play Wii Sports Bowling you either died in the '90s or you live in the Himalayas. This is the same, only MotionPlus makes your moves convert on screen better.

Wii Sports Resort: BasketballGameplay footage
1:14  Three-point challenges or basic games of three-on-three

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.

Wii Sports Resort: ArcheryGameplay footage
1:35  Hit the target, judging range and wind - hardcore

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.

Wii Sports Resort: WakeboardingGameplay footage
1:18  Do stunts over waves (or play another game because this one's rubbish)

Wakeboarding: Like Mario Kart Wii. Hold the Remote horizontally and steer left and right, and flick it upwards as you hit a wave to do a stunt.

Wii Sports Resort: FrisbeeGameplay footage
1:07  Throw the disc for the dog, or play Frisbee Golf

Frisbee: The Remote becomes the Frisbee. Flick it like you're throwing one, releasing B to release the disc. It reads power and everything.

Wii Sports Resort: SwordplayGameplay footage
1:17  Our favourite - bosh Mii's (or mates) in the FACE

Swordplay: Wield your Remote like a sword. Hold B to block and you can counter-attack. A simple idea but possibly the best in the game.
