How to Improve on Wii Resort Table Tennis

"Wii Sports Resort" for the Nintendo Wii features several different sports you play using the console's motion controls, including a table tennis game. Two players can face off, using the Wii remote to simulate hitting a table tennis ball back and forth across the net; the first to six points wins. If you want to improve your game, practice certain techniques to increase your chances of emerging victorious.

Instructions

- 1
  Add spin to the ball to throw off your opponent. If you rotate the Wii remote forward as you hit the ball, the motion will make the ball curve left. Rotate the Wii remote back to make the ball curve right. Switch between adding spin and hitting the ball straight to keep your rival guessing.
- 2
  Swing the Wii remote at normal speed. The ball will travel at a consistent speed, no matter how hard you swing the controller. You will have better control of the Wii remote if you use a steady rhythm.
- 3
  Hit the ball at the peak of its bounce and your avatar will smash the ball onto the other side of the net, making it hard to return. Practice your timing to hit this speed shot consistently.
- 4
  Aim for the soda pop cans in the Return Challenge. In this game, up to four players take turns trying to earn the most points by returning as many serves as possible without missing. Once you score 10 points, the cans will begin to appear on the other side of the net. You will earn three bonus points for each can you hit on your returns, which will usually require you to put spin on the ball.
