''Wii Sports Resort'' is a collection of twelve sports games, which includes enhanced games from ''Wii Sports'' along with completely new selections, designed to take advantage of the motion sensing capabilities of the Wii Remote, Wii MotionPlus, and Nunchuk. Like Wii Sports, players mimic the actions performed in real life sports, but they are played with greater accuracy thanks to the precision capabilities of the Wii MotionPlus.

Wii Sports Resort (Wii スポーツ リゾート, Wii Supōtsu Rizōto) is a sports video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Wii video game console, and is the successor to Wii Sports. It is one of the first titles to require the Wii MotionPlus accessory, which is bundled with the game. While the game was originally released only as a stand-alone title, as of 2009 the game is bundled with newer Wii consoles, along with Wii Sports.

Wii Sports Resort is a collection of twelve sports games, which includes enhanced games from Wii Sports along with completely new selections, designed to take advantage of the motion sensing capabilities of the Wii Remote, Wii MotionPlus, and Nunchuk. Like Wii Sports, players mimic the actions performed in real life sports, but they are played with greater accuracy thanks to the precision of the Wii MotionPlus.

Problems

Wii MotionPlus

Wii Sports Resort requires the Wii MotionPlus add-on. Dolphin is currently not capable of emulating the Wii MotionPlus; the only way for official Dolphin builds to play this game is to use a real, physical Wii Remote with Wii MotionPlus. See issue 3446.

  • Pre-3.0 revisions of Dolphin had rudimentary Wii MotionPlus emulation, but it does not work properly, lacking calibration and constantly disconnecting.
  • Unofficial builds with Wii MotionPlus emulation are available. See the forum for details.

Hangs

Random hangs occur, refer issue 2579. Reproducible hangs occur when attempting to view the intro instructional video, refer issue 3586.

Bowling Controls

Manual bowling controls are inaccurate in current Dolphin builds. During a swing in manual mode, the timing of the ball's release is different compared to the timing on the Wii. It may be possible to adjust to the different timings, but it makes the game very difficult to play. There is currently no known solution to fix the manual bowling controls, but the automatic bowling controls are unaffected. See issue 5352.

Pixelated box

With EFB to RAM enabled, a pixelated box of varying sizes will appear during some games. Use EFB to Texture to remove the pixelated box, however a black line may appear on top of where the box would be.

Mii Faces

The faces of Mii's may be missing eyes or other attributes if EFB to Texture is used, refer issue 2112. The eyes appear to work better in the OpenGL backend.

Banding/Pixelated Shading

Shading will look weird on most backends, almost as if it's pixelated. Turn on "Force Texture Filtering" to resolve it.

Blue Box

A faint blue box can be seen in the upper left corner of the screen. Check "Disable Fog" to remove the box.

Menu Blur Effects

Wii Sports Resort has blurring in some menus that is not emulated with EFB to Texture. Use EFB to Ram to restore the effect, but it has no effect on gameplay.

Golf Shadows

The golf game has shadow problems with EFB to Texture in OpenGL and D3D11; creating a shadow that follows the camera and takes up much of the screen. Use D3D9 to correct this, or use EFB to RAM. This problem was fixed at some point before 3.5-381.

  • JITIL can be used to correct the shadows with EFB to Texture in D3D11. However, it results in several graphics glitches and can prevent the club from hitting the ball at random. JITIL is not recommended.
