Mii Involvement
Discover how Miis are involved in each Wii Sports game, from Tennis crowds to Baseball teams.
You must select a Mii to play as for each game. Miis that are not actively playing also appear in different games in various ways.
Mii Involvement by Game:
- Tennis: Parade Miis (pre-made Miis often included with the system) form part of the crowd.
- Baseball: Your created Miis help make up each team. The remaining spots on the teams are filled with computer-generated Mii characters.
- Bowling: If only a couple of people are playing, other user-created Miis will be sitting behind your lane. Parade Miis play on other lanes.
- Golf: No Miis appear in this game.
- Boxing: Parade Miis make up some of the crowd.
- Pay attention to the background elements in each sport to spot different Mii appearances.
- Your own created Miis are prominently featured in Baseball and Bowling.
Pro Status
Learn how to achieve PRO status in Wii Sports by earning over 1000 points. Understand the points system and which modes don't count.
You earn points in Wii Sports to track your playing progress, displayed as a graph after each session. The number of points you gain depends on your performance and how well you perform against your opponents. For instance, playing poorly against a much higher-ranked opponent will still earn you a decent amount of points. Conversely, playing poorly against lower-ranked opponents will result in losing points.
Once you accumulate over 1000 points, you will attain PRO status. This status is primarily a title and does not offer any special in-game benefits.
It is important to note that you cannot earn points in Tennis, Baseball, or Boxing when playing in multiplayer mode.
- Focus on playing against opponents of varying skill levels to maximize point gains.
- Be aware that poor performance against lower-ranked opponents will decrease your score.
- Remember that PRO status is a title and does not unlock new features or abilities.
- Avoid playing multiplayer Tennis, Baseball, or Boxing if your goal is to earn points towards PRO status.
Wii Fitness
Learn about Wii Sports Wii Fitness, a mode where Miis play Training Games to gauge fitness and potentially lower their age.
Wii Fitness is a development mode where each Mii can play set Training Games in order to gauge their fitness according to their performance. It chooses three games from those in the Training Mode (if they are unlocked) and judges them all in terms of Balance, Stamina and Speed. If you do well your age is lowered, and the results recorded on the Message Board on the Wii console. The results are also plotted onto a graph to show development over time.
- Ensure you have unlocked the desired Training Games before attempting Wii Fitness for a wider selection.
- Focus on improving your performance in Balance, Stamina, and Speed to see your Mii's age lowered.
- Check the Message Board on your Wii console to see your recorded fitness results and track development over time.
Simple Rules
Learn the simple rules of Wii Sports Tennis, including scoring (15, 30, 40), deuce, and how sets are won.
Wii Sports Tennis is played as a doubles match, adhering closely to the rules of standard Tennis. You will use the full court, and the concept of deuce is in play. The scoring progresses through points: 15, 30, and 40. After reaching 40, the next point determines the set.
If both pairs reach 40, it results in deuce. Advantage is awarded when a team wins a point during deuce. If that team wins another point, they win the set. Otherwise, the score returns to deuce.
- Focus on winning points to advance your score past 40 and secure the set.
- Be prepared for multiple deuce situations where consistent play is key to gaining the advantage and winning the set.
