Wii Sports Resort is coming out on July 26, 2009. This game looks like it’s going to bring a whole new layer of control to the Wii controller with the adaptor that goes on the controller. A review of the Wii Sports Resort video game will be posted here as soon as the game comes out. Possibly even sooner than the public release. 
Neighborhood Games is a great family game for the Nintendo Wii platform. It is similar to Playground but has different games that are just as fun. I passed the lawn darts on the first stage but couldn’t get the second one (baseball darts). Horse shoes was fun also, even thought I wasn’t too good at it. The best games are the multiple player games. My family enjoyed playing the squirt gun game. My son found an “easter egg” where he could walk around in the fields, in the houses, all over the barn, and more. Watch for pics of that egg later. The other fun game we played was the r/c airplanes. It was a little tricky as you also use the nunchuck for steering. A hint: bomb the other person and their plane will go out of control! The object is to bomb all of tha play boats in the pool. you can also do a pretty cool close up fly by. This is a great Nintendo Wii family oriented game. Other games include ladder golf, Bocce, r/c car racing, horse, and more. Get your copy of Neighborhood Games at Amazon and your family game night going!

Is your blue light flashing on your Wii? Nintendo released Wii Menu 4.0. With the new menu system there are many new things such as:

This is a big one! Check out this article about the possibility of Netflix adding in support for the Nintendo Wii! I would definitely pay $9.99 for the CD. The article also mentions Nintendo is not going to include native support in the next firmware upgrade. Doesn’t matter though I’m ok with putting in a CD for instant access to 12,000 movies! What do you think? Would you pay one time for the CD?
Coraline will be released on February 24, 2009 according to this source. Coraline will be a 3D game in which you walk around as Coraline and collect items that will unlock mysteries of the Other World. The game Coraline will also have mini games to play.
If you have played dodgeball on Playground for the Wii you will see characters dash up for the ball. This isn’t a cheat on how to do it but just telling how to do it. We found it in the instructions 5-6 pages in. To dash or rush up to the ball press the up button (or down depending on what side you’re on) and when the counter leaves 1 push the Wii controller forward. Time it right and your person will have super speed and dash for the ball. Get it wrong and they will fall..
Another tip: to fake a throw in dodgeball hold the direction pad in any direction and do a throwing motion. Your player will act like they’re going to throw the ball. Fake your opponents out!
This post would have saved me a half hour or so when I got my Nintendo Wii earlier this year. Here is how to find your Wii’s console ID so you can share it with others and send your Mii’s and also send messages to each other.
Feel free to share your Wii Console ID in your comments. The video below will also show how to find your Wii ID. It’s not the best looking because of the sync with the TV and the camcorder.
