 "Wii Play" was one of several games that were developed as a part of Shigeru Miyamoto's "Wii Project", along with "Wii Sports", "Wii Fit", and "Wii Music".The project was a compilation of several technical demos exhibiting the capabilities of the then-upcoming Wii console and its controller, the Wii Remote.These prototypes took advantage of several of the Wii Remote's features; the controller was able to sense rotation, which was prominently used in Pose Mii and Laser Hockey, while the detection of depth movement was featured in Table Tennis, Fishing and Billiards.
