So why did they not release Boxing for the original Switch Sports? That was the big fan favorite in Wii Sports, the fact they never bothered with the first one makes me think they were keeping it as a selling point for the sequel. Shame.
Yeah Switch Sports was a low effort game for Nintendo, actually all the first party sports games on Switch were that, and disappointing. It looks like maybe they are actually putting effort into this one.
Ironically, Switch Sports was probably the highest effort sports game on NS1 lol
I still hold hope for a new Nintendogs haha
It's probably not that farfetched, to be honest.
I loved Wii Sports Resort , so im buying this.
I hope Wii Fit is next lol
Why can't we just call it Sports 2?
Why do we always have to do these silly little names that just confuse the casuals lol
