Wii Sports Club teeing off at retail on July 25th

Wii Sports Club, the enhanced re-release of Nintendo’s popular Wii Sports title, is headed to retail on July 25th..

For those who didn’t purchase them digitally via the eShop, this new SKU includes all five sports: Tennis, Bowling, Golf, Baseball and Boxing for $39.99. Beyond the HD visuals, all of the games are designed to work with the WIi U GamePad and include online multiplayer and functionality.

Check out the announcement below.

Fore! Love! Strike! Home run! TKO! All five of these phrases are going to echo through the homes of Wii U owners everywhere when the five-sports-in-one packaged version of Wii Sports Club hits stores on July 25 at a suggested retail price of $39.99. With Wii Sports Club, the millions of people who fell in love with Wii Sports can now hop off their couches and get active with new versions of the five original classic sports ? Tennis, Bowling, Golf, Baseball and Boxing ? enhanced with online multiplayer and optimized for play with the Wii U GamePad controller.

Wii Sports Club feels like a new experience, with the addition of crisp high-definition graphics and Wii MotionPlus technology, as well as creative uses of the Wii U GamePad. For example, in Wii Sports Club ? Baseball, the pitcher aims a fastball, change-up or curveball by moving the GamePad around in real space and pressing a button to throw. If the ball gets hit in the air, the player holds the GamePad to track and catch the fly ball ? just like they would with a baseball glove! In Wii Sports Club ? Golf, players place the GamePad on the floor. The ball will appear on the GamePad controller?s screen and then ?fly? to the TV screen when players take their golf swing using the Wii Remote Plus controller.

Using the game?s new online multiplayer mode, players no longer have to wait for a reunion or holiday gathering to play with friends and family members who live far away. Gamers from all over the country who own the game and have a broadband Internet connection can play Wii Sports Club together. Players also can join a club to represent their regions and build online communities with fellow club members by sending tips, pep talks and other messages via Miiverse.

There are so many new features in Wii Sports Club that players will feel like they are playing the game for the first time. The added GamePad features elicit the same ?You have to try this!? reactions generated after playing the original Wii Sports.

Digital versions of all five Wii Sports Club games will also be available in the Nintendo eShop on Wii U starting at 6 p.m. PT on June 26. For more information about the game, visit http://wiisportsclub.nintendo.com.
