Unlike other modes, this mode has a wider playfield. As each part of the wall is hit with more volleys, that part begins to crumble and create holes.

The wall shrinks and moves left-and-right with each successful hit. In Timing Your Swing, players must return as many serves as they can while hitting an orange wall (at the back-end of the court) with each return.As the game progresses, players have less time between serves and must periodically move close to the net for five close-ranged returns.


It is the first game to utilize Nintendo's "Mii" player avatars from the system's Mii Channel, allowing players to use their crafted Mii to represent them in-game and to save their personal stats. It also features numerous unlockable training mini-games for each sport and a built-in daily "fitness age" test (Wii Fitness) that tracks the player's balance, speed, and stamina in randomly-selected training mini-games. Aspects of each sport, such as the throwing of a ball or the swinging of a club, are mimicked using the Wii Remote (with the Nunchuk attachment also being used in the Boxing mini-game). Making use of the motion-sensing capabilities of the Wii Remote, Wii Sports includes simplified simulations of five different sports: tennis, baseball, bowling, golf, and boxing. In regions outside of Japan and South Korea, the game was included as the system's pack-in game. Wii Sports is a sports-themed mini-game collection developed by Nintendo EAD and published by Nintendo for the Wii (as a launch title) in North America (on November 19, 2006), Japan (on December 2, 2006), and Europe (on December 8, 2006).
