"The game is easy to get into...There are 20 events planned for the final game including archery, fencing, gymnastics, skeet shooting, and many, many others. The controls are simple enough for anyone to get into. Most of the games use a combination of nunchuck/Wiimote controls, though there are a few that use only the Wiimote, and the game is planned to support up to four players....The developers spoke that they are looking into the possibility of utilizing the Wii Zapper for the skeet shooting game, though they would not confirm it. There is also planned connectivity with the DS version that will release alongside this Wii version. Only 8 characters were in the demo, but 20 are planned for the final. They are also planning on having support for online Wii leaderboards featuring best times and scores........controls are waaaaaaaaay overly-simplified. A lot of the games just boil back into a glorified waggle fests, much like a next-gen Track & Field...game will not support any kind of story mode...no plans for any kind of online play"

Sorry, the last line should read "no plans for online play". (edited the article, but the comment doesn't change)
