Part 6

Ace your Wii Sports Resort Table Tennis and Golf games! Learn the controls, master rallies, and conquer the courses with expert tips and strategies.

Alright, let's dive into Part 6 of our Wii Sports Resort adventure! This section covers two awesome sports: Table Tennis and Golf. Get ready for some intense rallies and challenging courses!

Table Tennis - Worthy Opponent & Defeat the Champion

First up, Table Tennis. You know those super long rallies where you and your opponent just can't get ahead? That's called a 'draw' in single-player, happening when the score hits 20-20 and neither player can get a two-point lead. Also, there's a 'Defeat the Champion' challenge where you have to beat the current undefeated champ. She's pretty tough, having surpassed her own teacher!

Starting Up & Controls:

To get started, just choose the number of players, pick your Miis, and hit 'Start'. For controls, you'll serve by flicking the remote upwards for a higher toss. To swing, just mimic a real swing. You can add spin by tilting the remote and change direction by hitting the ball slightly earlier or later after it bounces. Movement is automatic, so focus on your swing!

Playing Tips:

If you're playing single-player at higher difficulties, expect some seriously long rallies. You'll need to master putting spin on your shots, hitting wide, and getting a little lucky to win.

Return Challenge

This mode is all about returning serves. It's just you against the ball. You'll need to clear your mind and let your arm do the work!

Details:

• Number of players: 1-2
• Nunchuk required: No

Stamps to Earn:

• Score 50 points: Get 50 or more points. This shows you're getting the hang of returns.
• Score 100 points: Reach 100 points or more. It's tougher, but keep a good rhythm!
• Score 200 points: Hit 200 points or more. You're a pro!
• Can Do: Knock 30 cans off the table in a single game. Perseverance is key!
• Honourable Master: Score 100 points or more without the ball hitting the server's face, even after bouncing off a can. Play fair and square!

Starting Up & Controls:

Setup is the same as a regular match. Controls are also the same, but you're only focusing on returning the serve.

Comments:

This mode can be frustrating! You have to hit every ball back onto the table. It gets way harder as the speed increases. Aiming for the cans is risky – you might miss entirely – but each can you hit gives you 3 points! They're usually placed near the edge. Honestly, hitting the server in the face feels kinda good after missing shots you shouldn't have. Get some revenge!

Golf

Now, let's hit the links with Golf! The goal is simple: get the ball in the cup in as few shots as possible. It's all about your swing!

Details:

• Number of players: 1-4 (played one at a time)
• Nunchuk required: No

Stamps to Earn:

• Under Par: Finish any course with fewer shots than par. (0 is par, -1 or less is under par). Not available in team play.
• Chip It In: Get a chip-in where a short shot lands directly in the hole. We all totally meant to do that!
• King of Clubs: Finish a course at 9 under par. On a 9-hole course, that means a birdie on every hole! Not available in team play.
• Ace of Clubs: Finish a course at 18 under par. Theoretically possible even on a 9-hole course! Not available in team play.
• Hole-In-One: Sink the ball straight from the tee into the cup in one shot. Talk about rare!

Starting Up:

Choose your players, Miis, whether you want to team up, the number of holes, and the course. Then, hit 'Start'!

Controls:

Stand sideways to the screen. For right-handers, your left side should face the screen. Hold the remote down in front of you, like a golf club. Press B for a practice swing: swing the remote back in an arc towards your shoulders, then swing forward through your starting position. To hit the ball, hold down A while you swing. If your swing isn't straight (the ball flight line curves), try repositioning the remote and pressing B again. This adjusts the club head's starting position. The game picks the best club, but you can change it with the D-pad (up/down). Left/right on the D-pad adjusts your shot line. To gauge power, check the map: four dots represent full power, so three dots mean a 3/4 power shot. Remember, the gauge shows where the ball will LAND, not stop.

Suggestion: Seriously, watch the in-game tutorial. It explains the swing much better than I can!

Comments:

Golf is back from the original Wii Sports, and it was a favorite! However, the new controls can be pretty tricky. It's tough to get the ball to go consistently straight, often going in the opposite direction of your swing. It's frustrating, but hopefully, you'll get the hang of it. Practice your swing three times in a row before hitting the actual ball to build consistency.
