What's the LEAST popular Wii Sports sport?

[@Caleb-pd5fr]

Wii Sports Resort is a shared generational experience let me tell you

[@duebfofn]

Yep, I'm a 2009 kid and I got the Wii in 2012. Literally when the Wii U released.

[@gianni2003]

I still have very fond memories of me and my parents playing it. We especially played Frisbee Golf and Table Tennis. It also kinda helped my dad with his Parkinson's disease, back when it was still kinda manageable. It's so disappointing that the disc drive broke. At least I can still play it on Wii U

[@cailieisidro5758]

Already had the Wii from my family and born on 2005

[@G_Game_MII]

I recently found my uncle's old wii, hacked it for the first time, and i had a blast, super easy to hack, so many things to do, got me enntertained for months, i recoommend you hacking it too

So happy my “I played the most with my sister growing up” review was included for Wii bowling. That game means so much to me because it was always a way for us to bond, no mater what was going on.

[@the97show]

It's shocking to see Nintendo Switch Sports Soccer so low. It's actually very popular in the Japanese Sports community. Lots of very high ranked people in it. I also think it could give Nintendo a way to make their own Rocket League.

[@tiberiupopa3808]

True

[@egonvm]

Interesting video. One thing that made the older Wii Sports games more special were that Miis from the system appeared in the background. Sometimes even in the team. That's what also made the baseball so special to me. It is sad that they decided to try to replace Miis in Switch Sports, but at least we can still play with them. That's something I guess...

[@cailieisidro5758]

I’ve always liked the miis. Also, I like how they celebrate in Wii Sports bowling

[@genius31415]

Hello, Mr Switch Sports Golf Essay Here! I spend far too long responding to Google Forms anyway, so it's nice to see my efforts recognised. Thanks very much!

Switch Sports Golf is fire bruh...

[@shaiazencot]

I made the likes go from 99-100

[@GameBlock_]

I can’t believe wakeboarding scored so low, it’s one of my favorite sports in the series. I guess my opinion is just in the minority 😅

[@HuMan-bEing132]

yeah ikr, i LOVED wakeboarding i spent a long time on it as well as swordplay, air sports and many others

[@Enraric]

Yeah I really like both water sports! For wakeboarding in particular, there's a surprising amount of nuance regarding WHEN to jump off the wave to keep up your combo.

[@GeorgeWalberg]

I can’t believe cycling scored higher than it! Wakeboarding is my 3rd favorite sport on resort

[@meowsticmarvels]

ME TOOO wakeboarding is one of my favorites. love that one so much

[@lucidity8060]

I feel like if Swordplay DIDN'T have the horde survival mode it wouldn't be as popular as it is. But I'm so, so glad we got it in the end.

[@JinjeoEil]

Ngl I'm pretty sure that the reason why Chambara ranked 11th instead of higher is because it lacks a horde mode

[@julienherard414]

@@JinjeoEil It also controls a little different too. Like, when someone gets parried, they cannot parry back while in stun animation (correct me if I am wrong). Plus, I think Wii Sports Resort had more of a fluid sword motion with less cooldown between each swing. In other words, Wii swordplay feels less restrictive to swing the sword compared to chambara.

[@Ash_Everheart]

I just randomly found my dad's old Wii, now I will know what games to not play

[@Jeeve77]

Your young if that’s your dads

[@Taypokemon]

@@Jeeve77not really the Wii is 16 (near 17) years old. Just as an estimation if they were born 3 years into the Wii’s life span they could be a Teen (13) or it’s possible that they just never bothered to get it for themselves because their dad already had one. Also not to throw shade but I don’t think the guy making Plushie Videos should talk about someone being young. Edit: Double also, You’re*

All the games are good. Some are just slightly less good than the others

[@Cliffordlonghead]

hi

[@suggen08]

I am so happy that both Wii Sports Resort Swordplay and Bowling came in the top 3. Those two are my most played sports ever in that game. I have only played that game, but still. The memories just keeps coming.😊

[@Tortoiseshel]

Can't believe baseball is so low, it's one of my favorites just because I always love seeing which Miis each team gets.

[@MxNEWCASTLE]

Canoeing is amazing when your grandma and great aunt play together and manage to travel -15 yards while shouting things like, "Paddle, you old bat!" at each other. Family memories ❤

[@TitusSc]

Table Tennis is soooo good. Probably the most technical sport of them all. There’s so many tricks and techniques to master. It is imo the best representation of a motion controlled game that rewards skill before all else.

[@InfinitySevens]

Yeah, and it's VERY different in feel from actual tennis. Higher intensity to the sport's advantage.

[@pøřñöğřâpħŷ]

table tennis has always been my favourite because of how technical it is. if you are also a fan of golf then resort golf is by far the greatest experience out of the four

[@cheerydan]

What I don't understand is that switch sports badminton has the same feel to the controls and is similarly fast paced and yet doesn't seem to be very popular. It's my favourite next to tennis in switch sports! But I guess not as many people have played it.

[@greengreenanimations]

I havent played this Wii game yet but Wii Sports Resort sounds hella fun. I didnt even know Wii Sports Club was a thing EDIT: GUYS I PLAYED THE ORIGINAL DONT WORRY

3:56 Oh hey that’s me. I never really liked any version of boxing because of how wonky the punching felt. With the introduction of the Wii Motion Plus I thought it would feel better, but nope. Also I think people were overly harsh on golf. I don’t like real life golf, but I think the Wii golf games are honestly pretty chill (helps that you don’t have to go out and get your ball), and the added precision the Resort and Switch Sports versions have makes it feel even better.

[@OnionsAlderton]

Wii Sports Resort was the first ever game I played, and man I played it constantly! It holds a special place in my heart, but my favourite sports were table tennis, swordplay and, controversially, golf. It really started my chronic Wii addiction for a few years!

[@Phalacrocoraxaves]

Swordplay and Air Sports are my favorites I have so many fond memories of fighting my brother with a sword, even if I was just wildly swinging the wii remote around. It was always a good time. And when I was old enough to actually understand how to properly play, I loved the showdown mode so much. I still play it to this day! One time me and my brother were recently dragged to someone's house by our dad. We stayed upstairs the whole time after finding out they had Wii Sports Resort up there. We played for hours, even without our miis I'm not actually sure if I've played air sports, but I would watch my brother fly around the island in a plane. It's like how I love Mario Galaxy even if I haven't played much. I still have so many good memories, and Wii Sports Resort will always have a place in my heart

[@prayagsuthar9856]

Here's a fact I just learned from Bulbapedia, of all places: apparently, baseball is _so_ popular in Japan that, during baseball season, the Pokémon animé would _completely_ go on pause and be replaced by baseball coverage on TV Tokyo. So that might explain why they put baseball in Wii Sports-it would've been strange not to.

[@giuliobros.123]

I love Wii Sport Resort!! Its my childhood!!

[@wurlyburd_miura]

When I used to have a Wii I’d invite a friend over to play Wii Sports bowling. Just bowling. Wonderful :)

[@veethebeaniest]

I went bowling on Friday and threw my ball backwards by accident and, on instinct, *I* did the spin thing from the Wii Sports bowling when you throw the ball backwards. Bowling is brilliant. (edit: grim it’s just a simple spin wdym)

Oh wow! This was a fast turn around time for a video! I always love answering these surverys. I actually feel like I'm actually contributing to something and I get to see the results unlike big company surverys where I don't know what they'll do with the information. I'm surprised people even play Switch Sports, it's definitely not Wii Sports that was revolutionary imo and included with a Wii. Island Flyover is sooo good, I remember trying to collect all the stamps and spending hours on it.

[@ramppappia]

I wish they didn't ditch the Miis and the island :/

[@pikXpixelart]

Baseball was done fucking dirty by this video, it doesn't matter if you didn't grow up with it! Should an American KZbinr be like "I don't know cricket so whatever?"

I'm honestly surprised to see Wakeboarding so low, it was always really fun just to do a bunch of tricks. Golf is my favorite but it's also my favorite sport in real life, I understand why a lot of people don't like it lol... Resort is definitely the best version of it though!

Never owned a Wii, but when I was on my aunt's wii I was either playing mario kart wii or wii sports resort swordplay showdown. Mowing through all the Miis feels so satisfying, but it's never a mindless game as you need to think about every guard and strike you commit to to succeed in winning. It's just good

[@Nightcaat]

Kinda disappointed by the short voting time. The sample size is extremely small considering how popular Wii Sports was. Still enjoyed the video though

[@BlustreakG]

Tho I play a lot of Sports Resorts games I still go back to Wii Sports to play Tennis, Baseball and Boxing. Resorts it just more interesting to play and look at cause they fill the world of wuhu island with some of your miis in the console, so you might see your family's miis in the challenges you do and thats just a nice touch.

[@SayuuTheSleepy]

I'm surprised Volleyball placed so low for reasons that are also praised in sports placed higher

[@julianjet]

Really cool video Though I do want to add my input about what sports to include from Resort. I felt like the modes that have a pretty different feel from the other would be separate from each other. Like the frisbee ones and the air sports with skydiving and the flying modes. Either way, it was really fun to see how the rankings would go.

[@cromebookfool]

wii sports resort is the best ever, and i have the best memories from sword fighting!!

[@McNibbler]

I sprained my wrist in middleschool playing swordplay 😅 that game was so iconic. Flyover, bowling, tennis, and golf are other classics

[@IZEAS_null]

i can't believe baseball scored over EVERY golf game i have never been able to get baseball to work. some kinda weird gyro thing i can never figure out--and i'm generally pretty good at figuring out how gyro works in games so i can use it the laziest way possible lol

[@nathancrowe641]

Yeah, I'm really baffled at these results, though I'm inclined to believe them. Baseball feels like it's only exists because it's popular in Japan, whereas golf clearly lends itself to the technology, even if the sport itself doesn't appeal to you at first. I'm also shocked at how Club Golf was done dirty here. I can only imagine people just didn't give these minigames a chance.

my family used to have a wii (my mom even considered buying that exercise weighing scale thing for it) but it got lost some years after we bought it. most of my memories of it are fairly foggy since i was a toddler last time i played on it, and it mainly consists of crashing in the mud in mario kart and failing bowling in wii sports. these days the discs for those games just lay there collecting dust.

[@thequeen17]

Im suprised people dislike golf so much, i liked it as a kid. I put frisbee from wii sports resort as my least favourite sport but forgot how janky and bad power cruising was! I remeber playing island flyover as a kid with ny sister and we would take turns playing 😄. Nintendo definitely got it right with wii sports tho, maybe it was including a disk with every copy of the wii and it being such a simple but fun game that anyone can pick up and play and understand.

[@InfinitySevens]

I loved Resort Golf, but Club Golf's forced Game Pad integration just made things needlessly frustrating. OG Golf is fun, but Resort Golf is just that but with improved controls and more clubs to work with (even with a proper 18-hole mode).

[@nintendoloverin9567]

I'd find a ranking off Mario Party Side Game Modes cool.
