Rockstar Games are bringing the fast-paced sport's game 'Rockstar Games presents Table Tennis' to Wii this autumn. The authentic physics engine and the unique Wii control system should make for some exhilarating gameplay.

Rockstar's Table Tennis made its debut on Xbox 360 in May 2006 and received high review scores amongst the critics. The satisfaction of mastering all of the shots and seeing them executed with superb precision led to Table Tennis being lauded as the most accurate representation of the sport to date. If Rockstar do a good job at mapping the hand movements of Table Tennis to the Wii controllers then Table Tennis on Wii will be an even more realistic gameplay experience than the Xbox 360 version.

"Ever since we released Table Tennis, fans have been asking us to create a Wii version," said Sam Houser, Founder and Executive Producer of Rockstar Games. "By bringing Table Tennis to the Wii and utilizing the motion-sensitive Wii Remote, a new audience can now experience a game that is beautifully designed and impossible to put down."

Playing safe perhaps? :p
Could be good - think you'll be able to configure whether you hold the bat in sort of pen-style or the other way (you can tell I'm a professional when it comes to table tennis :P)?
Having played on the 360 version i was amazed how good it felt, i'll be interested to see how this works out on the Wii control system
