"This event takes place on Aug 9 and 10, exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2 for Nintendo Switch Online members."
 
I remember thinking Splatoon looks so bad aesthetically I could never play it. But since there was nothing to play and they had a live test out for a weekend I tried it in and fell in love. Though I doubt that's what will happen here, but I'll give it a go.
 
I have a theory that Nintendo has started developing games that look awful and no one wants (like the Switch 2 Welcome Tour), just so their other games look even better by comparison. It's kind of like how every good friend group has the one ugly friend there to make everyone else look better.

Genius.
 
Cool I'll download it but I think it's gonna be tiring to play and dragging the two joycon mice up and down to move around is likely gonna get tedious. But I'll try it out and if it's good I'll buy it.
 
The whole idea as a game is … like cmon man . Who want to play it. I am trying not to sound rude but wtf ? I don't want to even download the demo.

So out of touch and wasted resources
 
It looks like a mini game from Fusion Frenzy that was scrapped for being too retarded.

A Rocket League clone with Nintendo's talent and aesthetic actually sounds amazing. I can't believe this is the direction they went with the concept.

On the one hand this looks ugly as hell.

On the other hand, if they tried to give it more personality, we would probably end up with a roster like this:

Maybe they did us a favor by making them generic helmeted characters.
 
I'm actually fine with the concept but.

The game has ZERO sauce
100% SAUCE free

This, and I think the game is taking bullets because the rest of the industry has gone hard and so stupid on virtue signaling wrt disabled. Like the WOW wizard rolling around in a ghost wheelchair.

I think they should've done something more ballsy, like Mortal Kombat with wheelchairs.

Instant cult classic

I'd buy it day 1 but I don't want to pay for Nintendo Online also. I'll probably grab this when Splatoon Raiders comes out to play both.

Worst reviewed Nintendo first party title… ever?

Do we know the people / team involved?

Sounds wheely boring.
 
Loved arms would have loved Nintendo to go all in with a more content arms 2, but from day one this has no interest to me, could be free and don't think I'd download

Nah, Nintendo have released their share of critical bombs. Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival, for example, has a 46 on Metacritic.

Do we know the people / team involved?

I'm curious about this too. I'd like to know if this was the Switch Sports team, because the Nintendo codename implied that they were working on a new sports-related title and I wonder if it was this or if Switch Sports 2/Switch 2 Sports is coming.
