In Wakeboarding, note the color of the left and right buoys at the beginning. The color buoy on the left will always be to the left side of the boat when you pass it and vice-versa.
1. At the begining of cycling when the numbers are going down, you can hear the same sound from the Mario Kart games when those numbers are going down.
2. When you fall off of a cliff in Cycling mode, you can hear the same sound from when you fall off a cliff in Mario Kark 64.
3. During 3-point contest (basketball), you may possible hear a "Wa-ha!" which sounds similar to the "wa- ha!" Mario says in Super Mario 64 after a Triple Jump.
4. In bowling when you zoom in you can hear the sound when you bring up the menu in Animal Crossing. (This is also in Wii Sports)
To find Miguel's plane in Island Flyover, press 1 to send up a flare. He'll answer with his own, making it easier to find him. Follow him and he'll show you the way to many i Points.
Once you've attained Pro status in the Cycling, you can hold down 1 when choosing you Mii to use a 'basket bike.' The 'basket bike' either has a picture of a pizza or some flowers on it depending on your Mii's gender.
The phases of the moon in Wii Sports Resort are accurate and reflect the real moon phases you can see at night. You can see the Wii Sports Resort moon during events like Island Flyover and Archery (at night).
Meet the requirements below to unlock additional courses and longer races! For the longer races, you'll actually race in stages. Each day a different race will allow you to gain ground on your many opponents. On the final day you'll need to fight for first!
There are three unlock able courses you may unlock via your overall event point score or just playing the game:
Note: You must play and beat the champion (get an event score of about 1500) before doing this. At the "Select a Mii" screen before an event starts, hold 1 while pressing A to choose "OK." You can let go of 1 when you see the black warning / info screen. This will unlock a shoe as a paddle for Table Tennis Match.
To change the boring blue color of your ball to something more flashy, hold a direction on the directional pad at the Bowling loading screen. The following directions correspond to colors:
Swoop down near the circle of cabins outside of the town on the south side of the island to hear the distinct strains of a Super Mario Bros. game being played. That's how we'd spend our time at a tropical island resort as well!
On the Wakeboarding event, get your overall event score to 400-500 to unlock Intermediate level. Expert is unlocked when you get to about 800-900.
Beat the Volcano round to unlock Reverse rounds where you can play all ten original rounds backwards.
Reach a score of 1000 to unlock special Samurai armor. After you reach a score lever of 1500, you'll fight the Champion -- a special match set in the evening sunset. Defeat him or her and you'll be able to hold 1 at the Mii Select screen while choosing "OK" with A to unlock a purple sword!
Beat the champion in Duel Mode and your Mii will have upgraded Samurai Armor
Beat every course with a total score of under par for each (-1 or lower) to unlock the mystery course called "Three Holes - Special." You can do this for both Golf and Frisbee Golf. Unlocking the course for one will not do the same for the other.
At the "Select a Mii" screen before an event starts, hold 2 while pressing A to choose "OK." You can let go of 2 when you see the black warning / info screen. This will have the following effects on certain Events:
Submissions by Jordan Pearce, omar, ricpicado and kyuubics2demon
In some events you can face an island champion for a stamp. Once you turn Pro in many of the sports, at an event score of 1000, you won't face champions right away. For most of the sports you must get your level to right around 1500 to face the champions and thus get your stamps.
In bowling's 100-Pin Game, if you can toss the ball onto the blue bumper just right and make it travel all the way to the end, it will hit a switch and knock down all the pins. To do this, release the ball late on Manual to toss the ball into the air. Angle it towards the bumper with some spin to keep it on track.
At the "Select a Mii" screen for certain events, hold 2 while pressing A to choose "OK." This will change the time certain events are played:
Hold 2 while selecting Table Tennis from the main menu and you'll unlock a faster Table Tennis Match where you play to 11 instead of 6. You won't see this activated until the game starts.
