With more than 18 different disciplines & challenges, Summer Stars 2012 covers a whole range of summer sports. Players can prove their talent in disciplines like Triple Jump, Mountain Biking, Diving or Sprinting and become a top athlete in the career mode. In multiplayer mode, they can compete directly with up to three friends or family members on split screen - delivering a gripping "just one more go" experience. Summer Stars also leaves it up to the players to decide how far they will be physically involved in the gameplay: the game supports traditional arcade-style controls, as well as Wii motion control.

Emulation Information

Wii Balance Board

This title supports Wii Balance Board, though no emulation is provided for the Wii Balance Board. The real Wii Balance Board may be required to access some features.

• In Bluetooth Passthrough mode, a Balance Board can be synced just like any Wii Remote, without any special configuration. Refer to the article for details.
• Otherwise, set the Balance Board option in the Controller Configuration dialog from "None" to "Real Balance Board". Then press the red "Sync" button in the battery compartment of the balance board, and press "Refresh" if Continuous Scanning is disabled. There is no fast sync (Wii Remote 1+2) in the Balance Board, so the sync button must be used each time.

Test Entries
Revision	OS	CPU	GPU	Result	Tester
5.0-15993	Windows 10	Intel Core i5-2300 @ 2.8 GHz	AMD Radeon HD 6770	Intro/Menu. Direct3D 11, 3xIR, 1xAF, 1x MSAA. Past the screen with the warning about wearing a tightened wrist strap, the screen turns black and an empty Warning dialog box appears. At this point, I cannot exit Dolphin normally, through the Task Manager, or otherwise without restarting my computer. This is decade-old hardware and another user has marked it playable, though.
