  "account": "Nintendo Switch Sports Resort, released in 2026, attempts to revive the fun and charm of the Wii Sports era, but doesn't quite reach that lofty goal. The new collection of 12 sports minigames brings more options, including 4-dimensional Archery and the whimsical Thumb Wrestling. While the quality varies, Archery stands out due to its unique Joy-Con controller use, while Basketball remains unchanged and feels too choreographed. The game is best enjoyed as a party game, with intuitive motion controls and lively menu music. Local multiplayer brings out the child-like joy, as friends cheer and compete in sports like Volleyball and Skateboarding. The only downside is the requirement for two Joy-Con per participant in some games, limiting access for those without multiple controllers.",
  "summary": "A collection of sports games designed to spark deceptively heated rivalries.",
