Unlocking new hairstyles, clothes, and gear would have made playing in the family room so much more exciting. The fact that you have to play online to unlock items and customization features is criminal in a Wii Sports game. The game appears to have a lot of customization options, which I wasn't able to review, because the servers were not live during the review period. I thought I’d hate not having my goofy Miis, but the new avatars are adorable. The character editor is fantastic, adorable, and fun, while still letting you use classic Miis. Fuck around and see what happens.īeyond the mushy stuff, there's still more to Switch Sports. Before you accuse me of being a weak gamer, I’d like to remind you I am literally the best gamer in the world. My grandma tied me on our first bowling round. In one room, multiple generations were bowling, and the scores were still tight. (Extreme Gram.) While she is a wonderful grandmother, technology and gaming is far from her expertise-unless it's digital Scrabble, which still requires quite a bit of troubleshooting. She even bowled a strike right out the gate. My grandma, who just had knee surgery, mind you, was beyond thrilled to get up and bowl. My parents are hooked, so much that my little brother and mom asked me to bring the game to my grandmother's house. This past week, I’ve been visiting family and friends back home in the Chicago area. There's no longer-at least to my knowledge-cheese methods in the sports, meaning everyone's got a shot.īeyond all else, Switch Sports brings one crucial thing back to gaming: Fun for everyone. (But that's just an urban myth, right?) If I'm being honest, Switch Sports' responsiveness and balance helped immensely with gameplay. I no longer can swing the racket and an alarming pace in tennis, or hold the A and B buttons and aim slightly off center for a guaranteed strike in bowling. The game is more refined and fair, yet I’d be remiss if I didn't mention some of the bullshit I miss from its predecessor. The best thing I can say about Switch Sports is that it plays as if Wii Sports debuted in 2022. One spin through Switch Sports will give you a legitimate workout. That doesn't mean greatness comes easily, though. Everything is extremely intuitive, meaning that you rarely need more than a button or two to play. If you were at all worried, every sport plays just like you remember. I have a sneaking suspicion that Socco Square will be home to boxing, baseball, and jet-skiing soon enough. The newcomers are badminton, volleyball, and soccer. Bowling, tennis, and chambara (AKA swordplay from Wii Sports Resort) should be familiar to longtime Wii Sports heads.
It arrives with six total games in total, with more coming down the road. I have good news for all of you- Switch Sports is another hit. What Your LEGO Star Wars Character Says About YouĬonsidering Wii Sportsis one of the top-selling games of all time, its follow-up had rather large bowling shoes to fill.
