Trivia
In bowling, there are different reactions from the crowd depending on what the player does. If the player gets a gutter ball, the audience boos. If the player throws the ball backwards, the audience screams. If the player throws the ball in the other lane, the audience laughs.

Goofs
In baseball, when the player holds a bat, it may clip through the Mii's head or body.

Simple, yet brilliant. Perfect introduction to the Wii's capabilities

I still remember the first time I got myself a Nintendo Wii in the Christmas of 2007. Every Wii owner has this game bundled with the console with 5 simple yet very fun and well designed games showcasing the Wii's motion controls. Golf is my favourite game of them all since it has the most depth and freedom of control, with 12 well designed courses. The music is memorable too with the introduction of the input of Mii character that you make on the Mii channel. Overall a very inventive game to introduce you to the magic that is the Nintendo Wii
