Where the hell is Wii Sports Switch?

I'll even take another Mario Golf game. Just as long as it gives me swing mode like Mario Tennis Aces does.
Nintendo had been publishing titles that are kinda replacements for them, like the workout game a couple months ago, which shows those style of games arent their focus
This is the last game of the Wii/Wii U era that I need for the switch to be my fav console of all time.
I sunk so many hours into these games.
Also the golf in Wii Sports Resort is probably the best golf video game ever in terms of nailing the feeling of the swing, physics, and fun courses

Go Vacation
Fitness Boxing
Little Friends Dogs & Cats
These are the casual Wii-like games for the Switch, and i believe all three pubblished by Nintendo.

Gotta save the motion-driven, casual properties like that to help sell the upcoming dedicated VR unit, imo. The OG Switch is doing well enough without the "Wii Sports" hook. It's a perfect fit for VR though and it might as well be saved for their break in to that market.

It sold 83 Million copies. I'm not asking for Project Steam HD or Jet Force Gemini 2 (although that last one...)
I rather miss the Mii branding completely. Outside of carryovers from previous versions of games (Mario Kart, Smash) and their use as a account icon, they're more or less gone.
Nintendo is publishing a few third party games that appeal to the casual market these days, like Go Vacation and Fitness Boxing, which kinda suggests they've moved away from making them in-house
That said they should really just release Mii Sports Switch or something, remove the Wii branding (most casual consumers won't notice) and basically just port the Wii U versions of those games

Nintendo is strangely ignoring the 'Wii' titles. Wii Sports on the Switch would make for some fun office local multiplayer with my mates. The Switch is a good platform to revisit those IP.
They need to go all out on the content, though. Add a story mode or whatever or a hardcore mode for those who want a deeper experience.

I suspect that will be their next big E3 2020 theme game because of Japan hosting the Olympics that summer.
I'm hoping Switch sports does a crossover with Mario and Sonic.

Wii Sports was fucking great it was the game that got me in to Nintendo and it is doing it an extreme disservice to call is shovelware.
Bring on Switch Sports.
Wii Sports is one of my favourite games of all time. Both Wii Sports and Resort are fantastic games.
ah, yes, everyone knows that shovelware titles are backed by large R&D and marketing budgets.
Nah, Nintendo planned Wii Sports to be the console's flagship title. https://web.archive.org/web/2006102...s-will-be-flagship-title-wiimote-not-finaliz/
The distribution method was just their way to make sure it got into people's hands.
Maybe they're waiting just a few more years until the kids who grew up with Wii Sports are old enough to be really nostalgic about it AND buy it for their kids.
But surely a Wii/Mii Sports for Switch would be a lot more successful than whatever they did with Wii U. I never got Wii Sports Resort, so I'd buy it for sure!

Yeah.....no. Wii Sports was a goddamn system seller and Nintendo knew that and banked on it hard. It was a great game and front and centre for the Wii launch for good reason.
I'm at work and they're going to give a winning team time off to participate in a Wii gaming sesh. That's what non gamers know. The Wii. It's kind of weird but the Wii transcended gaming into casual entertainment.
I want Wii Fit Switch so bad.
Only reason my Wii U is still plugged in. I still use that thing every week, haha.

The problem with those, especially in the case of Go Vacation, is that it's not really good especially compared to Wii Sports Resort. Go Vacation was originally a "rip off" of Wii Sports. I mean, the most control stuff is basically "waggle" as opposed to true motion controls like Wii Sports Resort. Even the physics are certain mini-games just aren't that great.
Same! That and bowling and I'm set. Just port over Wii Sports Club downloadable titles for the eShop.
Wii Sports (and Resort) was anything but shovel ware. They're legit fantastic titles with solid physics, polish, and gameplay. Nothing else ever came close to Wii Sports even thought there was plenty of shovel ware that tried to cash in.
um...
Wii Sports can't work on Nintendo Switch. The entire game was designed around and for the Wii Remote.
Unless they're suddenly planning on making Wii Remotes compatible with Switch (which they can't), I'm not sure how you'd otherwise duplicate the experience.

Joycons can replicate everything about the wiimote aside from the pointer. None of the games in Wii Sports relied on the pointer. Only the menus, which can easily be reworked.

No but I've heard great things
Joy-Cons would work but I like the feel of Wiimote better.
It sold 83 Million copies. and I kinda just mean the franchise not so much a port of the Wii Game.
I'm wondering the same ducking thing. Just give me Switch Sports Resort and I'll be happy. Wii Sports Resort is the best casual sports game ever.
