Wii Sports Resort Mobile Tour Delivers Virtual Vacations to D.C.-Area Residents

Interactive Tour Brings Simulated Beach Resort to Potomac Mills, Prince William County Fair and Arlington County Fair

Not everyone can take a vacation this year, but D.C.-area residents will be whisked away on a virtual island vacation as Nintendo’s interactive Wii Sports Resort™ Mobile Tour makes stops at Potomac Mills, the Prince William County Fair and the Arlington County Fair. On select dates throughout the month of August, visitors are invited to enjoy hands-on demonstrations of the game, which takes place on a simulated island resort oasis.

With 12 resort-themed activities, including wakeboarding, Frisbee™, golf, archery, and Swordplay, Wii Sports Resort provides users with a “staycation” that lasts months and months. Just as the unique motion controls of the original Wii Sports™ fueled a home entertainment phenomenon, Wii Sports Resort gives players an even more immersive experience, using Nintendo’s new Wii MotionPlus™ control enhancements to achieve new levels of precision and fun. The game is available now and is a must-have for anyone who owns a Wii.
