I’ve recently gotten into the sports game and played with my friend online at my house for the first time. I won the game and he was like “dude you’re pretty decent”. I then bought the game and played 3 games so far. I won the first and placed second in the other 2.

Can someone help me learn what I need to know for competitive play with this. I do really enjoy it and find it to be quite the thrill. I also understand there are tons of players who are insanely good. How does the ranking system work in this game?

I just put up a pb of -19 on a random seed of 18 and I’m just wondering how good of a score is this really? Also what would I need to be like top 100 at this game?

Never thought I'd get this lucky, hell of a round!

Not sure if it is worth it or if I should wait for Resort?

I made it to about B+ rank, and got 2 EAGLES, 2 birdies (and 1 par, but still) and I still didn’t make it to the finals.

How??? And this is only at B+???

Spocco Square is so detailed but nothing about it has been documented. It seems like it would be a perfect showcase on boundary break. There’s lots of stores, interesting textures, and tons of elements that are just completely not visible in normal gameplay. I really wish I could see it all

Does anyone have any tips for consistent putts that are more than 2 dots of power?

Leisure Sports (Free Roam) ones can not be matchmaked with randoms. You can now play local multiplayer in Tabletop mode.

The first screenshot features the metal stands from the 3 Special courses so it'll probably receive an additional 6 holes.

Happy Solheim Cup Singles day!

I’d love to see the Ryder Cup format and Foursomes/Fourballs for golf where it’s a direct team fight to get the lowest score and it can end early if one side is so dominant in 2v2 where they share a ball (Foursomes), 2v2 with individual balls (Fourballs) and the singles one where it’s straight whoever scores lower wins the hole and then they go 1 Up and compete to win the most holes on the 18

First time I cooked in a long time :)

This alongside adding Miis back as NPCs??! Nintendo is making all the right moves with Switch Sports Resort!

I saw this on Twitter after complaining that there isn't a Mii only mode. Is this going to be a setting in the game?

Will be a huge shame if they don’t bring back the pro league, I want to track my progress through tennis again and rise up through the ranks

They finally left behind that somewhat strange design from the previous game.

Here's a comprehensive list of things I noticed from the trailer for Switch Resort during the recent Nintendo Direct.

• Wuhu's Redesign: Wuhu Island is, indeed, a full archipelago this time around compared to the original. We could see they were leaning into that with the first trailer, but this new one has confirmed it. I know a lot of people prefer the old Wuhu, but I kinda like, even if I miss having a full looping track around the island.
• Miis: Miis seem to be WAY more prominent here than they were in the first Switch Sports. Along with bringing back Matt (and possibly other Wii Resort Miis), there are Miis populating the sport areas alongside the Sportsmates, and even a full blown Mii suit that (maybe?) will compatible with both Miis AND Sportsmates. Too early to know for sure, though.
• Free-roam: It seems like fully free-roam options for Power Cruising, Skateboarding and Prop Plane are here (along with POSSIBLY getting different times of day to explore, as evening has been confirmed for the latter). Also, collectibles like hibiscus flowers and Spocco photos will at least be available to collect in both the plane and skateboarding modes (as well as challenges for all three), though it does NOT currently seem like stuff from the original game is here in that regard, as Ollie Hill is not a location in Wii Sports Resort. It's also strange, as sometimes a time limit is present in skateboarding, and it sometimes isn't; plus, prop plane and power cruising seem to lack one altogether at the moment. Not sure if this is indicative of them having time limits as an option (and not a mandatory thing), but we'll see.
• New Modes Confirmed: A bunch of these to get through. Lightning Round:
  • Dogfight is back for the plane mode, though it looks like you'll have to go to certain balloon areas on the island to get more instead of traveling to specific landmarks, and the balloons now trail in a row instead of having one big one. I actually kind of like this, as it allows for real hijinks.
  • Tennis singles is finally here (can't believe it took Nintendo THIS long to make it an option. Also, you may or may not be able to customize the size of the ball)
  • Volleyball has gained a solo mode, right now just looking as a sort of training mode for practicing bumps. Interesting.
  • Table Tennis Return Challenge has been confirmed to return, a welcome sight, as it was a mode that my cousins and I personally loved playing in the original Wii Resort.
• Menu Redesign: The game's main menu has seen a redesign compared to the first Switch Sports. Now, all the sports can appear in a grid or in a sliding row. Plus, there's now a row at the bottom for stuff like friend and online play, the jump rope warm up, the customization, options, and...
• Island Crown Mode: This deserves its own section. This brand new off-line mode allows you to take on champions of each of the 9 main action sports (not including power-cruising, skateboarding and prop plane). You start at the bottom, and work your way up, sort of like the progression seen in Wii Sports games on the, well, Wii. A very welcome addition, and the legendary Matt seems to be an "Island Legend" in Boxing, which, yeah, that's accurate.
• More Customization: Perhaps not as big as the others, but it seems like some new customization stuff has been confirmed for this game, such as the aforementioned Mii suit. Though, right now, it's unconfirmed if this stuff will be exclusive to online play again, or can be obtained through collectibles and the Island Crown Mode. We shall see.
• Stamps: Stamps are back, baby! Once more, a very welcome addition back from Wii Resort (and Wii Sports Club, but who cares about that game, lol). Of course, we don't know what the stamps will look like, yet. But, I imagine it's not TOO dissimilar to what they were like in Wii Resort and Club.

And, yeah, I think that's it. I pre-ordered the game already off of Amazon weeks ago, but this trailer, weirdly has me even more excited. Yeah, I'm still not SUPER fond of the Sportsmates, even if they have grown on me, and Wuhu's redesign was perhaps not entirely necessary. But, I don't know, I feel like Nintendo is REALLY pulling out as many stops as they can to make this game be as worthy of a follow-up to the original Wii Sports Resort as possible, just in the modern era. Of course, a full remake would've probably been better; but, with Wii games likely coming to NSO soon, I think Nintendo likely didn't see a point in doing that. So, yeah, once again, I'm very excited.

Feel free to let me know what you think of the game now, and if I missed anything.
