I've been looking into the development of Wii Sports recently for a project and came across this review which I thought was pretty funny to look back on.
"Wii Sports Worse Than Mario Party 5" - GamesTM Review
@rorie: Right, like everyone loved bowling, and tennis was pretty solid, but I never hear anyone say "Man, Wii Sports baseball was my jam" or whatever.
And of course Mario Party is the crowning achievement of the games medium that all other games strive to grovel at the feet of, so there's that as well...
I like Wii Sports and had a good time with it, but if it wasn't a pack in then I think it, and the Wii as a whole, wouldn't be remembered so fondly. Kind of an opposite 1-2-Switch situation.
I generally remember the Golf with some nostalgia tinted glasses, since I quickly recognized that the holes were all from NES Golf. Seems like Golf for the NES just keeps popping up from time to time considering the Golf (Flog) emulator that was in the Switch for a time.
Bowling was always fun.
So, sure, if it wasn't a pack in I probably wouldn't have bothered, but it was still a good time.
