Wii Sports is a sports game developed and produced by Nintendo as a launch title for the Wii video game console.[2] It was first released in North America along with the Wii on November 19, 2006, and was released in Japan, Australia, and Europe the following month. The game is included as a pack-in game with the Wii console in all territories except Japan,[3] making it the first game included with the launch of a Nintendo console since Super Mario World for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1990. Wii Sports is part of an ongoing series of games sometimes referred to as the Wii Series.
The game is a collection of five sports simulations, designed to demonstrate the motion-sensing capabilities of the Wii Remote to new players. The five sports included are tennis, baseball, bowling, golf, and boxing. Players use the Wii Remote to mimic actions performed in real life sports, such as swinging a tennis racket.[4] The rules for each game are simplified in order to make them more accessible to new players.[3] The game also features training and fitness modes that monitor player progress in the sports.[5]
Overall, Wii Sports has been well received by critics, and has received awards from the gaming press and entertainment community. Although not sold separately outside Japan, the game has been commercially successful. In Japan, it was the best-selling game of 2007 with 1,911,520 units sold.[6] By the end of 2007, Wii Sports sold 17.85 million copies worldwide—including bundled copies.[7] The game has been featured on television in Wii commercials,[8] news reports,[9] and other programming.[10][11] It has become a popular device for social gatherings and competitions among players of varying ages
