1-2 Switch is obviously meant for parties, gatherings, and families, and there's nothing wrong with that. The newly enhanced IR functionality of the joy cons apparently has enough depth to accurately convey motion, distance from objects, and various gestures, a huge step up from the Wii's abilities.
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!
It could've but Nintendo went with Cow milking. You know, because everyone wanted a game where we could milk cows with motion controls
Idk how many people would've played Wii Sports if it weren't already bundled into the console
1 2 Switch and Arms seem like left over ideas for 2007 Wii games. Will Nintendo ever get beyond motion controls and concentrate solely on just making good games? I wanna play modern sequels to familiar franchises we know and love with some new features thrown in and that's all. I want that by the millions! I don't want new ways to play games. Give me a regular gamepad controller a great game and I'm happy. Stop chasing the success of the Wii, Nintendo! Nintendo should release two consoles. One with all the gimmicks and innovations and simplistic games. Then another one that's a sequel to the NES. That continues the familiar feel and fun of the Nintendo we all know and love.
Nintendo won't even give you their Tech Demo LOL, pay up Nintendo Fan Boys. They could make a game about Reggie anally raping you, and you would buy 4 copies!
Umm no. This game looks like hot garbage. How many times to do you think people will want to draw guns at each other, or milk a cow, or block one sword strike? These are all mini games that are done in 15 seconds or less. And we all know they won't really work right.
