  • Canoeing (2)
  • Cycling (2)
  • Air Sports – Dogfight (2)
  • Basketball 3-Point (4)
  • Power Cruising (2)
• LAN (Multiple Consoles): Swordplay Duel, Basketball, Table Tennis — requires 2 Wiis + 2 copies + LAN adapter (rare).

WiiConnect24 Legacy

Only allowed score challenges (ghost data) with friends — no real-time play. Servers dead.

For true local party play, Wii Sports Resort excels at pass-and-play; for simultaneous, ensure enough MotionPlus remotes.
