Play Overview
The game sees the classic events from Wii-Sports returning:
- Tennis: rally by gently swinging the Joy-Con controller at the right time.
- Bowling: roll the ball straight ahead, or give it a little curve.
- Sword Fight: Knock your opponent off the platform while attacking and defending.
- Golf: Use the Joy-Con to control your swing in this classic motion-controlled version of the game.
There are also new sports that extend the experience:
- Football: Use a gigantic ball to make dynamic plays in a game that looks much like Rocket League. You use the Joy-Con motion to shoot and perform headers. You can also attach a Joy-Con controller to the Leg Strap to employ intuitive kicking motions.
- Badminton: Control your shots left and right while keeping the shuttlecock in the air. Swing left and right while keeping the shuttlecock in the air. Unleash powerful smash shots to gain the upper hand!
