#85 Wii Sports Resort (Mostly Table Tennis)

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/2/8/3/AABIPnAADh5j.jpg

I love ping pong in real life, but embarrassingly, I somehow like Wii Sports Resort's Table Tennis a little bit *more*.

(Warning: Take this ranking with a grain of salt, because I played this game with friends and family, which is always a blast, even with a bad game.)

Even playing against the AI in ping pong is great. You can quickly figure out an unbeatable combo (hit far left, then far right), but soon the game will give you AI opponents that are *ready* for that and take advantage of it. Then it gets deeper, as you figure out the spin techniques and player positioning!

At the start of a volley, the game really helps you keep the ball on the table--aim wherever you want, it'll work. BUT as the volley goes on, the players start backing away, now you can easily miss the table...but you do still WANT to aim far left or right, to get your opponent out of position.

The other sports are fine. I'm pretty into the 2-player 3v3 basketball too: a basketball game where you cannot move--everyone is stationary. It doesn't really work, but it is fascinating!

BEST LEVEL: There's one high-level AI that ONLY BACKSPINS, (the FREAK), which keeps the ball in the air super long. It seems like a terrible strategy...and yet, it's really hard to beat!!!
