Big Beach Sports is a sports game for the Wii developed by HB Studios and produced by THQ. The game is a collection of six sports simulations, in which players compete on a beach resort location. The sports include: American football, volleyball, football, bocce, cricket and disc golf. The games are not highly realistic simulations of the sports, but more orientated towards unrealistic physics, stylized beach scenarios, and a simplified rule set. It is most notable for being the second Wii game (the first being Pokemon Battle Revolution) to feature connectivity to the DS. Big Beach Sports also features the first Cricket game on the Wii. It is scheduled for release on June 24, 2008.

[edit] DS to Wii Connectivity

The DS application downloads a small application from the Wii and allows you draw your created character's face (eyes, ears, nose, mouth and eyebrows) and then upload it back from the DS to the the Wii. Your character will then appear as you have drawn them in the game. This application does not require any DS game to be inserted into the Nintendo DS

[edit] Gameplay

All of the games allow up to 4 players playing at the same time, or in the case of Bocce and Disc Golf, taking alternate turns. All the games use the Wii Remote only, no games require the use of the Nunchuck or any other peripheral.

All sports in Big Beach Sports contain a tournament mode where players compete against increasingly tougher opponents. As players progress in the tournament they are awarded Skill Points, which are then used to calculate the difficulty of the next match.
