The question Nintendo is now asking, by releasing a high-definition, online-enabled update of its iconic, motion-controlled mini-game collection, is how many people are looking to pay $40, 8 years later, for essentially the same games?

While this sports collection might feel like deja vu for some -- it's the same five games as in the original collection from 2006, after all -- the five re-imagined sports games for Wii U offer plenty of fun for the whole family.

Let me start by saying I love motion gaming. When Nintendo first launched the Wii in 2006, I jumped in headfirst and fully embraced the concept of playing games through movement.

Online multiplayer makes winning much more satisfying; Some creative use of the Gamepad in Golf and Baseball; Interesting minigame and training options

Feels like a lackluster remake of an old game; Boxing is awkward and unresponsive; Not enough variety; the five sports get old quick; Only Baseball and Golf utilize GamePad functions

Although only an opinion, I believe Wii Sports Club is an attempt by Nintendo to rake in a few extra holiday dollars at a minimal production cost. The Wii Sports franchise still has appeal to the casual gamer, but I don't feel the online features will entice many of them to purchase Wii Sports Club...

With just over 80 million units of software sold, Wii Sports and its premise of motion gaming was synonymous with the original Wii's success in 2006 and beyond. In 2009, Nintendo released the sequel, Wii Sports Resort , which went on to sell over 31 million copies.

HD visuals add a layer of sheen; New modes are fun; Classic Wii sports gameplay; Clubs aspect is a good idea

Pricing model may not suit all; Lack of real GamePad functionality; No real sense of an online community; Lack of online options

I've played all of these games before, if you've owned an original Wii, you've played these before also. The only difference is that there is online capabilities. You join a "club" and then random posts pop up while you play.

You've all heard of Wii Sports by now. A genuine phenomenon in the world of games, one that you could play with your Nan, even if the swinging of the Tennis made her teeth fly out and land in the dog'

Wii Sports Club improves on the classic Wii game in nearly every way, proving that the concept isn't just a gimmick.

At the end of the day Wii Sports Clubs offers all Wii U owners the same brilliant motion-based gameplay experience - albeit two fifths of (for now) - that got the whole planet addicted back in 2006; but with a noticeable HD makeover and online multiplayer.

+ HD visuals makes all the difference; + Same enjoyable gameplay; + Online multiplayer - finally; + Is free to try for 24-hours

- No voice chat; - Can't easily invite friends to games; - Buying each sport is a little pricey

Although it's cheaper to buy some where else, I decided to wait til price drop to get it. The only reason I wanted it was for the Wii Bowling. I thought I read some where that they improved the graphics from the Wii version, all I can say is... I don't see it. Looks the same.
