The gaming industry changed forever in 2006 when Nintendo released the Wii.

Home game consoles are no longer seen as something exclusively for young people and are now known as fun for the whole family.

The reason for this change was Wii Sports. A game that was easy to learn and play and encouraged people to get moving.

A new era of using video games for exercise had begun, and Nintendo didn’t stop with the Wii.

One of the latest fitness games to hit the market is Nintendo Switch Sports, launching in April 2022.

It immediately became a hit, especially since the Switch is one of Nintendo’s best-selling consoles of all time.

More than 13 million players own a copy of Nintendo Switch Sports, and it’s soon to get even better.

During June’s Nintendo Direct, it was announced that there would soon be a free update for Nintendo Switch Sports.

The sports simulation game was originally released with badminton, bowling, chambara, football, volleyball and tennis.

Golf was added in a free update after launch, and another game will soon be available.

Basketball will be added to Nintendo Switch Sports in mid-2024, bringing with it a new way to play.

Players will have to dribble, pass and shoot to score goals in 2v2 matches.

Like all Switch Sports games, basketball will use Joy-Con motion controls and can be played locally or online.

You can also play alone by participating in three-point challenges to score the most baskets within the time limit.

There is another multiplayer basketball mode where four players shoot at the same time to see who can score five baskets first.
