This game is soo good for your mental health. Blue skies and green grass are everywhere in the design, great fun to play with friends and you find yourself exercising without any effort at all. My granddad was even encouraged to buy a wii with this game after he was diagnosed with Parkinson's in order to help him with his reaction times. He was a real fan of computers so I'm really happy he was able to experience a game like this in his lifetime. This is a game that doesn't patronise you and takes you seriously. The detail put into each sport feels true to life but still encourages you to take up the sports in real life too. Levelling up after every game and collecting badges feels so genuinely rewarding, whilst most games do not give that same effect. Spectators pay attention to your every move, always supporting you in a way that correlates to your performance, and therefore does not feel disingenuous and uniformly patronising like in similar but lesser games. It's so user-friendly and easy to operate to the casual player. This is a game that makes you feel genuinely capable. Even the wii feels capable when it runs this game. Despite its low resolution and hardware limitations that gave rise to a lot of lower quality casual gaming experiences, this is a casual game with charm. There are simple, skillfully added details that spark joy without bloating the hardware out. The wii's limited resolution even becomes quite charming. The setting of the game is coherent, believable and marvellous. While playing airsports you are even given virtually boundless freedom to explore the entire island, flying over the arenas where all the other games are set whilst being given onscreen lore about the imaginary island's history that enjoyably fleshes it out, which is particularly captivating for younger players with plenty of time on their hands. Overall, a timeless masterpiece that's still a delight to play with friends and family and encourages you to live healthily, just like it intended to do
