Meanwhile, I'm less surprised to see Wii Sports Resort get minimal representation. Those may be tough pills for Wii Sports faithful to swallow, and I'm not sure why Nintendo didn't bother to bring them back, even as bare-bones ports. Gone, then, are the frantic air-punching of Wii Sports boxing and the breezy home run derbies of Wii Sports baseball. (A new version of the series' golf is slated to land as a free downloadable update later this year.) NSS's badminton replaces WSR's table tennis, while soccer and volleyball emerge as new sports to the series. Only three sports return from that jam-packed game: tennis, bowling, and 'chambara' sword fighting. The divergence between the series begins with a measlier sports selection than 2009's Wii Sports Resort. If you don't like NSS's touched-up avatars, you can select an old Wii-era Mii (learn how to create one on your Switch here) and transport back to 2006. If you're one of roughly 82 million people who've played the original, you know the drill: motion controls reign in six dumbed-down, easy-to-play sports games, and players select a cartoony avatar to represent their wrist-waggling selves on their TV. In some ways, NSS follows the trail blazed by 2006's Wii Sports. Enlarge / Watch other online NSS players after you finish your bowling turn, as the mode defaults to a best-of-16 battle royale.
