Wii News by Robert Purchese

11 June, 2009

SEGA has confirmed the Wii version of Virtua Tennis 2009 for release next Friday, 19th June.

This is one of a handful of games that support the Wii MotionPlus peripheral, which launches here tomorrow. Read our hands-on impressions of Virtua Tennis 2009 or the Wii MotionPlus peripheral itself to find out more.

Virtua Tennis 2009 has already been released on PS3 and Xbox 360, where the sports series struggled to find the form we've previously praised it for. Our Virtua Tennis 2009 review will tell you why.

SEGA also offered dates for Wii game Wacky World of Sports, which arrives in September, as well as Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games, which slaloms onto shelves in October.

Don't bother with motionplus on this one. Played the North American release, and the game works much better without it. I guess the game was too far along when wm+ was announced for proper development of m+ controls.

That said, the game works really, really well with just a plain wiimote. If you want to see motionplus at its best, get Tiger. If you want a tennis game with passable m+ controls, get Grand Slam tennis. If you just want a fun tennis game with no hype or gimmicks, and no extra peripherals to purchase . . . Virtua Tennis is your answer.
