They should add something like a free roam to replace the plane game from resort, letting you explore the spocco square at least for 5 minutes

Agreed. I hope there will be another update exclusively for that, since a running icon was leaked a while ago.

Same, I would love a free roam mode to the game, when I play the sports, I would catch myself looking at the details of the game, like the city’s in the back, the plants, the small little places like library, coffee shop, etc, this game has amazing detail!

That would be cool. It could be like a jogging game using the leg strap. 😊

[@MasterofMonkeys16]

Yeah, thats why we love Wii sports resort. We know the island well

[@Pearl_Blossom]

Did they just... describe the entire game for us as if it's just now releasing? As if this isn't just for the basketball update? It's like they know we all forgot it existed and are trying to pass it off as entirely new

[@whtevercomesfrst]

thats what i was thinking😂

[@Treesarewoke]

Its for new players

[@B0ssguy]

it's an updated overview trailer

[@MasterofMonkeys16]

It says overview, i think its also just to show people the game in case they want to buy it for basketball too

I was thinking the same, it’s as if the games fully completed now but it wasn’t before

This person gets it

[@cmn225]

@@SoulessSinferno the addition of basketball (my fav sport) is enough to make me buy the game but the other sports would increase replay value

[@MasterofMonkeys16]

I would rather they just have a “switch sports resort” than cramming all the stuff in. I think this game was just a test to see if they should make a switch sports resort, like if it would do well.

​@@shockdojo4287 See that's what I want it

[@lemonquacklol]

I’m pretty sure Nintendo promised they’d include more inclusive marriages if they ever re-released or made a sequel to Tomadachi, they might not want to dabble with that kind of stuff especially since they dealt with the backlash of Vivian in TTYD. I don’t know what the regulations are about those types of things in Japan but that might be a reason why it hasn’t shown up yet

[@lilmrb1276]

Hopefully on the Switch 2

[@charmerboy0052]

Should have already been here from the start

[@grawman67]

​​@@Gavin-dy9cbVery astute criticism of another opinion

[@mr_m4613]

No, because then there wouldn't be any sports to add to reel more people in if they put all the sports in at once. Drip feeding is more effective than just dumping everything on there.

[@NotSnak]

​@@mr_m4613imagine defending dripfeeding content in a wii sports esque game this comment genuinely makes me lose faith in humanity. Theres NO excuse for this content to not be in the game when wii sports and especially sports resort released with more games and i can think of plenty of other sports that this game couldve added later if they really wanted to. These shouldve been in the game day one

[@ivannatinkle8196]

I'd rather just be happy that they added the sport in general than complaining that said content was added later, but that's just my personal opinion

The fact that this goes over everything makes me think it’s the last update

[@GaminylGames]

Nah I bet the entire development team is just one guy in his room who for somehow takes two years to develop each sport

[@JBRedux]

This trailer seems like it's marketed at people who have never heard of this game before, so my guess is that Nintendo considered this game to be a commercial failure and they're trying to increase its reach

[@GaminApe]

​@@JBReduxhmmmm.... I wonder if they made a better game if it would have sold better. It honestly saddens me that Nintendo thought I just releasing a sports game with motion controls that they would just generate money. They never once thought as to why people loved the Wii Sports series so much.

@zilus stare at Splatoon, animal crossing, and arms... true no wonder their fan based is on the lower end. you are sooooo right... too bad now even smash bros and mario kart now practicing releasing new content for their port with paid dlc...

[@Ziilus]

@@SupportPikminXOXO Nice passive aggression. I’ll have you now I am a HUGE fan of Splatoon 2- but I played the game after the free updates and LOVED IT! Arms was a commercial failure in some regards (as in the new updates, since any Arms reviews I’ve seen have been critical of the new updates more than Splatoon 2 and now Splatoon 3) Animal Crossing: New Horizons got some bad rep from the free updates, and it was popular due to the time it released, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’s Booster Pass DLC’s waves were mainly to test the waters of a DLC to such a well-selling, yet old game, that actually used the criticisms of the waves to improve the later ones. I don’t like how they went about things, but I’m staying optimistic for the future of actual releases and not games with “free” updates.

[@SupportPikminXOXO]

@@Ziilus Sarcasm doesnt always have to negative.. or aggressive. I did use sarcasm and i wanted to make it obvious to avoid confusion. i wanted to make it obvious there too many opinions on this for me to have a definitive i agree or disagree with so why not a yes no answer of sarcasm. i presented these example to bait you into seeing how your statement would apply to these games also know for and having critique on free update or... even paid dlc. hmm i should have tossed minecraft into the mix but on the matter at hand. you acknowledged the bad rep the others have free update have. from what i am understanding. though you didnt exactly say you hate their free update since you only mention Animal crossing has its complaints but by others and boosted by the issue at the time, arms was just a failure, and splatoon you only played it after all its free dlc came out and patches... So... but from your latter statement it seems you do have some resentment for this style... as well as the paid dlc. But is it enough for me to also tell people to stop buying splatoon, and mario kart etc etc like this sports game. i actually dont have an opinion on this matter and i was curious about yours.. i am also aware both splatoon and animal crossing faced this criticism on free update and being incomplete and was curious about your thoughs... i too am a splatoon addict and played all the mentioned games. i will i used sarcasm to bait you into responding as i really like to listen to opinion. And TO be fair... you did write a rather black and white, blunt, no further explanation, no holding your punches of "dont buy the game" i though a friendly sarcastic banter was a fair response XD i promise i didnt do it maliciously
