One is to bring back popular and previously dormant IPs, with the likes <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch\/mario_strikers_battle_league\">Mario Strikers: Battle League<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch\/advance_wars_1plus2_re-boot_camp\">Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp<\/a><\/strong> being examples, and another is to position the system as a unifying living room system for all to enjoy.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/wii\/wii_sports\">Wii Sports<\/a> was the ultimate example of a game bringing players of all types together, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch\/nintendo_switch_sports\">Nintendo Switch Sports<\/a> arrives hoping to replicate some of the magic. Though technology has changed the concept is the same &#8211; stand in front of the TV with family and friends while waving a controller about.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8216;Out Now&#8217; launch trailer taps into this vibe, right down to recreating the feel of all those Wii commercials in 2006. Photogenic people in very nicely decorated living rooms, all having a fun time. To be fair, some of our living rooms will have similar scenes this weekend, albeit without all that advertising polish.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;ll be interesting to see how Nintendo Switch Sports performs &#8211; will the sizeable Switch userbase be enough to elevate it to success, will it take off in the short term, and can it join the ranks of &#8216;evergreen&#8217; games on the system that sell consistently for a number of years?<\/p>\n<p>Time will tell; let us know in the comments if you&#8217;re planning to pick it up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[embedded content]Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube Update: Nintendo of America has launched its own equivalent trailer, above.
