Wii Sports Resort/Frisbee

The Frisbee sport is played with 1–4 players on either Frisbee Dog or Frisbee Golf. Throwing the frisbee is much like throwing an actual frisbee, by bringing your throwing arm around in front of yourself, then flinging that arm outward in front of you. Unlike real frisbee, it pays to use smaller, concise movements for maximum effect. It is rarely necessary to put a lot of power into any of your throws, and the game itself cautions you not to use too much power. Due to the sensitivity of the controller, it's best to constrain your motion to arcs of just a foot or so, instead of huge sweeping throws. Once you've gained accuracy through muscle-memory, you can start to whip the frisbee out faster if you need some distance on the longer holes in Frisbee Golf.

Focus on throwing straight to begin with, then try out releasing the frisbee after varying durations to push it out farther left or right. Once you are comfortable getting it where you want it to go with the proper power, the final step is to work on tilting the frisbee one way or the other to create arcing flight paths. This becomes a necessity to pick up balloons in Frisbee Dog and if you find yourself in awkward positions on the Frisbee Golf courses.

Controls
When you first play a Frisbee game, you select whether you want to throw manually or automatically and whether your are left or right-handed. You can change these settings whenever you're at the Mii selection screen when starting a new game, or by going into the Change Mii menu. On automatic, the game releases the frisbee itself during your swing, which isn't the optimal way to play. Playing manually is likely easier, even if you don't feel confident in your frisbee skills. On manual, you choose when to release the frisbee yourself.
 * Hold the remote normally and point it at the screen with the buttons up. Holding it level, draw the remote back around to your opposite side, then reverse that motion back outward to throw.
 * Press this button to take the frisbee from your dog is Frisbee Dog and to select your frisbee in Frisbee Golf. If you're throwing manually, you'll also need to press to take your stance, hold it throughout your build-up, then release it when you want to release the frisbee.
 * Change your view from over-the-shoulder, to directly behind with your Mii becoming transparent.
 * : In Frisbee Golf, this rotates your Mii to face a different direction.
 * In Frisbee Golf, this will take you back to your frisbee selection screen to change frisbee sizes. In Frisbee Dog, this resets you back to your dog holding the frisbee.

Frisbee Dog
In this game, your job is to throw the frisbee for you dog, attempting to come as close to the target as possible. Before each throw, your dog will be holding the frisbee in its mouth. Press to take the frisbee. From the throwing area, you'll see an arrow with a dog icon in it pointing down at the ground. This is your target. You get ten throws, and during the latter five you will also have the chance to pop score balloons for extra points. Depending on how close you come to the target, you will land in either the purple center, the orange middle ring, the outer green ring or outside the rings all together. There are two types of inner purple ring catches; when your dog jumps or doesn't. There is no point difference between the two, but the score indicator shows a solid purple circle for the outside, non-jumping catch, and a double purple ring icon for the closer, jumping catch. The balloon colors match the colors of the rings, and are worth the same amount. On the sixth throw balloons are added. Whether you start with an orange or purple balloon depends on how well you did on the first five tosses. This same logic is applied to successive balloons, with the purple ones only coming if you keep your score up.

Frisbee Golf
Frisbee golf is played on the original nine holes from Wii Sports and twelve new Resort and Special holes. When playing frisbee golf, you can choose from three, nine and eighteen hole games. In the three hole courses, you can choose from Resort A, B and C, Classic A, B and C or Special. The Special three hole course is locked until you've played four of the other three-hole courses. In nine holes, you can choose between the nine Classic or Resort holes, and eighteen holes is played with both sets intermixed.

Just like normal golf, each hole has a par value, representing the number of throws for a neutral score. Using less throws results in a negative score (under par), while using more throws results in a positive score (over par). In Frisbee Golf, as in actual golf, the lower your score the better. Before each throw you choose between three different frisbees, each with their own ranges. Depending on the distance you need to throw, you'll need to choose the most appropriate frisbee, and there is always one recommended by the game. While they each have an average yardage associated with them, you can over or under throw that amount depending on the force you use.

Once you've selected your frisbee, you'll see a wind indicator in the upper left corner of the screen with both a direction and miles per hour gauge. In the upper right is the distance to the hole. When you begin, you will be facing the hole or most directly down the course, so in many cases you'll need to turn left or right depending on any obstructions or hazards and the wind. In the lower right corner of the screen is a mini-map of the course, with your average throwing distance marked by a pulsing arc spreading out in the direction you are facing. Use the mini-map first to get your general direction, then fine tune it while looking ahead of your Mii in the main screen. There is also a simplified wind meter in the mini-map.

After throwing your frisbee, the camera will normally track with it while a line showing its flight path is drawn on the mini-map. Sometimes, when you've thrown out of bounds or you're close to the hole, the camera will stay with your Mii and the mini-map won't be displayed. The hole itself is actually a tall pillar of light, shining up from the green. You can hit the light at virtually any height, and it's quite large in diameter, so if you have no trouble throwing straight, Frisbee Golf may be easier than normal golf. Once your frisbee enters the light, it is swirled down to the green and you are scored based on the number of throws you spent on the hole. At the end of the course, you are given you overall score, which is then used to determine your Mii's ranking, based on how well you did and your current rank.
