Today showed that Nintendo really does know no bounds, as along with John Stewart making his usual writers strike, Iraq and political references at the show he also was seen playing a game of Wii Sports on the huge screen that adorns the stage at the 80th Annual Academy Awards.
The Switch just isn't equipped for a killer sports title like the Wii was
A lot of the points made here are true, yet let's give it a chance, because like the author said, the Wii was a motion control console and everyone did view it as such while the switch is not, so the way people view the game determines how much they invested in it, so again let's give it a chance and see
Wii sports was truly atrocious and you're saying Switch Sports will be even worse? It does not bode well for Switch Sports indeed.
Wii Sports was ok for screwing around, but the games lacked depth. Also I'm not sure why it seems like they decided to stick with the automatic player movement so all you need to do is swing to hit something. Very noob friendly but not as much fun IMO.
Wii Sports was THE game for casuals. I don’t feel many casuals own the Switch. I can’t see this doing the numbers Wii Sports did.
Course it won't, the Wii was a phenomenon. Something new with the motion tech. A curiosity to almost everyone. Obviously Switch sports won't create the same impact.
Nintendo could be sitting on a gold mine with a past favorite.
Because we all miss accidentally throwing our Wiimotes at the TV, so let's throw some Joy-Cons.
I was always confused by Nintendo’s decision to kill the franchise. “Super” stayed with Mario titles even after the Super Nintendo. They can still use the Wii name. Hell it’s been so long that releasing a new one, or even an HD remaster, will tap into that nostalgia market.
Yeah i agree but i don't think Nintendo will be bringing wii sports to the Nintendo Switch samething goes for diddykong racing
A look at some of the best games that launched beside a new console.
Missing Spider-Man: Miles Morales for PS5 in this list. Love this game!
Now that's wiitarded!
There is no stopping the Wii train
now imagine them playing PS3 on stage.. oo that would be fun. (rolls eyes)
why would they play a ps3 on stage? the wii is easy to get into and cheap. thats why it sells so well. dont bring ps3 into this, the wii is not even in the same galaxy as the ps3.
This Gamer/Open Zone situation has done nothing to solve the Wii-hating. It really peeves me!
not just the wii hating but all hating this site needs more mods.
