Well done, Sir, well done. Albeit, I'm still curious if you'll step up to the plate and play Conduit, because it looked (surprisingly) well done, yes, even for one of those ironic "hardcore Wii games".
With the first Wii Sports, I found that in tennis; flailing wildly to Pro is your best option. Bowling; you better pray to whatever god you believe in to give you some divine power to get those damned stubborn pins down. Baseball; [insert rant here]. Golf; the controls are a bit too touchy, so you don't get the real "golf" feeling, but once you get used to them it's just like real golf... especially when the damned ball flits around the cup just barely and you throw a raging tantrum.
No, Wii isn't a perfect system by far. Yes, it's mostly a casual gaming system. I "own" my friend's Wii because he's too lazy to take it back to his house, and only ever plays it when his friends are over anyway, and that's exactly why the Wii "fails" in so many people's opinions. Honestly, Wii isn't failing at all, it's just a different type of system (like a DDR machine), and every hardcore gamer has popped up to say "OMFG IT SUXX" because it's not all pretty graphics and using your thumbs for everything.
Personally, I like the Wii quite a bit because, hey, it actually gives gamers a reason to get together aside from those LAN parties. Also, it's bringing in casual gamers, and truth be told it's making it so people are less picked on for enjoying vid'ja games. As much as the hardcore gamer deep down inside me wants to throttle Nintendo for not making a system like the N64 was, and keeping up the inevitable "Sony vs Nintendo" war, I can't bring myself to hate them. It's like Yahtzee said a little while ago, "I guess it's better to be the king of idiot land than to try and continue the epic struggle to please one's fanbase."
Wii Sports 2 might be more casual hoopla, but hey, at least it's pretty fun casual hoopla.
