It looks like a fairly interesting game, but it's certainly not one of my top picks for upcoming Switch games.

wii sports boxing 2

As interested as I am, I can't say that I enjoy the way the game is controlled. Moving the Joy-Cons, while a novel concept, it seems... flawed.
I can't say the Wii Remote was accurate, but I can't say that some of the best overall usage of the Remote wasn't the Boxing and Sword games. No idea how accurate Joy-Cons are in this respect.

^ It has already been announced that you can play the game with a standard controller scheme.

Huh. Could have sworn they didn't mention much on controls other than brief but direct showings of motion controls.

Well that clears up my controller problems. Other than that, the camera angle seems kinda iffy for multiplayer (like Pokken), but I could get used to it.

The way you get new arms kinda reminds me of Custom Robo. Actually this whole thing is like Custom Robo, minus Leg customization, honestly. There's even a Dragon Gun Arm.

I also can't be the only one here who thinks that Biff guy should read the Smash Bros. trophy descriptions, right?

from what i can see (although this is admittedly not a super informed opinion) it doesn't seem to have quite enough content to back up the price point and hype. good art and concept though and it looks like it'll be fun for a while at least

I love this game. You'd be surprised how much more the accurate the Joy-cons are to the Wii remote.

Unfortunately, no one I know either owns the game or wants to play locally.

Makes me sad that it's hard for me to find local tournaments since that's all I'd really attend.
