It was released in Japan on November 25, 2010, and in other regions in early 2011. It features volleyball, ice hockey, dodgeball, and basketball.

The game received mixed reception; it was praised for its graphics and gameplay, but critiqued on its lack of depth and replayability. Despite the mixed reception from critics, the game was a commercial success, selling 1.98 million copies, thus making it one of the Wii's best-selling games.
