![]() If you miss, then the other team scores a point. If you get the timing right, you can set the ball for your net players to spike it. To receive that ball, you have to swoop upward with your hands as if you were hitting a real volleyball. That sends the ball over the net to the other team. You tossed the ball up by raising your hands and then you served it by slamming downward. You did that by holding your hands together with one Joy-Con. There were a few different moves to master. The tutorial walked me through the complex moves. We played a mode where we had one CPU player and one human player on one side, playing against the same on the other side. Volleyball was a little more complicated to play, but it was a lot more intuitive than kicking the ball in Soccer. Volleyball Volleyball is complex but lots of fun in Nintendo Switch Sports. Overall, in my first game, I was able to get a number of spares and strikes. ![]() I could spin the ball using a flick of my wrist that the Joy-Con captured quite accurately. ![]() But it was quite easy to line up my body against the bowling pins and let loose. ![]() Even when I rolled the ball, I was supposed to keep holding the button. If I let go of that button, I would drop the bowling ball on the ground. I had to figure out to keep holding on to one of the buttons. It seemed pretty accurate in detecting exactly where I was throwing the ball. It split the screen into three parts and we all concentrated on our own part of the screen while mimicking throwing bowling balls down our lanes. It cleverly saves time by allowing all players - three in this case - to bowl all at the same time. Bowling Bowling was never so fast as it is in Nintendo Switch Sports. There is also a mode where two players can play with Joy-Con controllers against two others in soccer matches. The rest of the games I played with one or two Joy-Cons in my hands, and I didn’t see any of that problem with the handheld controllers at all. The problem, I think, is that it’s not intuitive when you should kick. This was total guesswork, but I think most people could get used to the timing eventually. So the only way to really judge properly was by trying to figure out the size of the ball as it approached and the speed. It was very easy to kick to early or kick too late. But this was perhaps the weakest demo to start with, as it was pretty hard to judge the timing for the ball as it came at you. With this Leg Strap attached, I could try to kick the soccer ball as it was coming at me on the screen. You can play either left-footed or right-footed, as you wish. The game character kicks the ball at you, and your job is to then kick the flying ball into the goal. I used it to play a shootout kicking a ball at a goal. You take one of the Joy-Con controllers and put it in the strap and it detects your leg movements. In the mostly empty building, Nintendo’s demo people started out showing me the Leg Strap accessory (from Ring Fit Adventure) that strapped around my right thigh. Soccer Timing is the name of the game is soccer shootouts in Nintendo Switch Sports. Later this year, Nintendo plans to add a seventh sport with a new golf mini-game. The selection of items will rotate each week. You can redeem ports you earn for in-game rewards such as outfits, sports accessories, and other gear. Players can try to reach the pro League in every sport. For instance, you can play with two players in your own home against two on the internet. Or you can play against online players with different configurations. With Switch Sports, you can play in the same room with people on a split screen, as I did with the bowling game.
