Players use the Wii Remote to mimic actions performed in real life sports, such as swinging a tennis racket. The five sports included are tennis, baseball, bowling, golf, and boxing. The game is a collection of five sports simulations, designed to demonstrate the motion-sensing capabilities of the Wii Remote to new players. Wii Sports is now available on its own as part of the Nintendo Selects collection of games and is no longer a pack-in game for the Wii. It was included as a pack-in game with the Wii console in all territories except Japan and South Korea, making it the first game included with the launch of a Nintendo system since Mario's Tennis for the Virtual Boy in 1995. The game was first released in North America along with the Wii on November 19, 2006, and was released in Japan, Australia, and Europe the following month.
Wii Sports is a 2006 sports game developed and published by Nintendo as a launch title for the Wii video game console, and part of the Touch! Generations.
