WII SPORTS RETURNING TO NINTENDO SWITCH PORTS
Nintendo has remade Wii Sports for Nintendo Switch. The game is available in both standalone and multiplayer modes.
Wii Sports is a Nintendo Wii game that you are likely to be familiar with, regardless of whether you own one or not. It was the launch title for the new Wii and the most popular Wii game ever, selling over 82,000,000 copies worldwide. The decision by Nintendo to bring back the game for the Nintendo Switch is no surprise. Wii Sports was recently re-evaluated and available on the Switch as Nintendo Switch Sports. It will be released on April 29, 2022.
Nintendo Switch Sports features six sports, 3 of which are returning from Wii Sports and 3 of which are new. Three returning games include tennis, bowling and chambara (swordplay). Swordplay was featured in Wii Sports Resort. This sequel to Wii Sports was hugely popular. These three new sports include volleyball, badminton and soccer. In a free update, golf, another mark in Wii Sports, will be available to Nintendo Switch Sports in the fall. The game is compatible with TV and tabletop modes but not handheld.
Nintendo Switch Sports allows multiplayer. With local play, you can play with four friends and family members on one Switch console. Or you can play online with other players. You’ll earn points as you play against other players in random matchmaking online. These points can be used to redeem rewards. These points can be used to purchase new clothes and accessories for your avatar, which you can customize in-game. In each sport, you can also reach the Pro League.
Nintendo Switch Sports can be pre-order to get your region pricing. The Leg Strap accessory is included with the physical version. This accessory can be used in soccer. The digital version is also available, but it’s less expensive and doesn’t come with the Leg Strap. You can buy this separately.
Register for the Nintendo Switch Sports online test. It will be held at the designated times between February 18 to 20th. There will be random online matches for tennis and bowling. Register for the online playtests by February 15 at 5 pm PST.
