Wii Sports is the easiest game here to start, which is why it makes the list despite scoring lowest on content and value. Nintendo's page lists five sports: Tennis, Baseball, Golf, Bowling and Boxing. Each uses the Wii Remote as the racket, bat, club or ball, and the game reads the speed and angle of a swing for shots such as lobs, slices and spin. Boxing adds the Nunchuk as a second glove. Players use their own Mii, whose skill level rises as they improve, and up to four can play. Nintendo notes it came with some, but not all, Wii console bundles and was also sold separately as a Nintendo Selects title. That matters for value: DKOldies lists a used disc at $49.99, so check whether your console bundle already included it before paying that price.
