Parents have nothing to worry about. This is about as family friendly as videogames get.

Fans of sports games should enjoy this game initially, but may ultimately be disappointed by the scant number of options and the lack of room for growth and achievements.

Multiplayer is definitely the preferred way to play Wii Sports; however, there is no online multiplayer, so those who want to play against others will have to buy at least one extra remote and nunchuk.

HDTV owners will appreciate the presence of widescreen. However, to play the game in the maximum resolution of 480p requires the purchase of separate component cables.

While much has been made of reports of people losing the grip on their remotes and smashing their windows and TV screens, this shouldn't be a concern as long as people attach the wrist straps and don't let go of the remote.

Deaf and Hard of Hearing gamers should have no trouble playing this game as there are no essential audio cues.
