Nintendo Switch Sports Golf Update Now Live, Here's What's Included

Let’s do this. About time! Also, what’s next on the switch sports update list.

I really hope that Nintendo adds more sports in future updates or at least they announce that they're planning on adding additional sports in the future, because one sports game that they worked on for like half a year isn't gonna cut it.

why this mode took 7 months to come out ill never understand, really dashes my hope theyre essentially done with this game now

I love wii sports golf this will be fun to check out

I swear this is one of the laziest games Nintendo has made recently. It took them this long to add Golf when it should have been in the game to begin with. Companies please, stop releasing games before they are ready.

@BlueCoolYoshi Bet they'll make a 30 dollar DLC that you can get with a Switch Online membership

So much hate for this game. No, it doesn’t have the content of Wii Sports Resort. Luckily, that game is still widely available and easy to play! As fun as it was, I only ever got so much playtime with it due to local play only. In other words, Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort were party games.

For all its faults, this game is something different. It’s Wii Sports but online. Yes, that is the focus. Online play. And if you accept that, then it’s a great game to pop in every couple weeks to get lost in an hour or so of online gaming against randoms. That part works brilliantly, nearly flawlessly, and it’s a blast.

Just stop thinking of this game as Wii Sports Resort 2, and you can possibly appreciate it for what it is. I would estimate I have 30+ hours into this one, and nearly all of that playtime is online. Not bad. It should have been a $30 game, that I will concede.

@Hajilee yeah I wouldn't be suprised if the Big N did that. They did the same thing with the Mario Kart Booster DLC.😑

Everyone here talking about how mediocre this game is but I’m just having fun playing some motion controlled golf lol.

And since their post release strategies they can use the small modules and the customer is paying for the SD card space.

I love golf and this put me off right at release. I would rather use the WiiU version again, than buying this sports game.

Usually people scream when payed DLC is mentioned Day1, but here everything is fine, because it is free.

@mereel Yeah, all the negativity everytime this game gets mentioned is weird. My playtime is around 60 hours atm, all of it from playing online. Imo this is one of the best first party games when it comes to online play. All the weekly updates with new items to unlock have been fun aswell.

Couldn't even be bothered to design a new golf course. I guess it's good news for the five or 10 people who've been waiting 15 years to play the original course in HD.

@Burning_Spear You mean the ones who didn't buy a Wii U and Wii Sports Club?

Golf's great, hope they make more sports via paid DLC, love this game

Wii sports club already had online, they should at least bring back all those sports in future updates

@KayFiOS Ha ha. I bought Wii Sports Club. Double-dipped for the physical too. I really enjoyed the online component of that game ... when there were actually people around to play. I just can't wrap my arms around the Switch version though. Seems like a half-baked effort, and I don't normally say that about first-party Nintendo titles.

@mereel I don't really like posts like yours. Do you know why?

Because it suggests that the CONSUMER is the one who has to STRIVE to appreciate the lazy work of a company.

I appreciate more the responses they CHARGE THE COMPANY for a BETTER work at a FAIRER price.

I have no love for Nintendo nor Sony nor Microsoft. No consumer should have. Love consumers in general, not companies. Unite and cover better products at better prices.

@Burning_Spear It's unfortunately become an ongoing trend for Nintendo to release a half-baked title and add content later. Kirby Star Allies, Animal Crossing New Horizons, all of the Mario Sports games thus far... Oh did I mention these are $60 games at launch?

@KayFiOS And they load up the games with cosmetic bonuses for early adopters, to incentivize us to purchase these games before they've been fully developed. It's a sneaky tactic.

Love it! I would just like to see archery now.

The Resort courses are GOATed and Classic courses are great, but I was hoping for a few new ones. Maybe in another couple months…

@Rykdrew ok, that’s a bit harsh don’t you think? It’s just his opinion, you don’t need to forcibly change it

@Rykdrew all the caps but no italics 😂

@TenEighty I agree! Archery was always my favourite.

I'm so disappointed, the game that promised 7 games on the box only comes with 7 games. I thought we'd get at least 50 or 60 (as if that would be enough).

I love playing the new polo game, I even brought my horse into my front room for added reality. Hopefully they will be adding croquet early next year along with the already confirmed three day eventing

Tee Time golf is enough for me. Fun game, didn’t see any coverage of it here on NL.
