Moving examples to Nintendo Switch Sports


** The Sportsmates introduced in ''Nintendo Switch Sports''. Many old fans dislike them and sometimes even ''the entire game'' for replacing the Miis as the dominant characters, as well as their limited customization options especially after the Nintendo Switch version of ''VideoGame/{{Miitopia}}'' had a virtually limitless selection of customization features. Other fans like the Sportsmates for having cute designs and some even prefer them more than the Miis.



** ''Nintendo Switch Sports'' has a diving header move that results in a cartoonish face-flop when the ball isn't in front of the player. Since the player can do some moves during the "vs." intro screens of sports, a lot of Soccer games feature players flopping like fish onto the grass before the game begins. Doing this too many times in succession even tires the Sportsmate avatar out!

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: Miis being DemotedToExtra in ''Nintendo Switch Sports'' in favor of more generic-looking "Sportsmates" avatars was a huge disappointment for fans. While Miis themselves would [[AuthorsSavingThrow show up a few minutes into the announcement]], when Shinya Takahashi and Yoshiaki Koizumi demoed Volleyball using their own Miis, many fans, while happy that they're still at least an option, wished they were featured more predominantly. Especially since they're barely used in Switch games outside of ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate'' and ''VideoGame/{{Miitopia}}'', the latter of which had many hoping the avatars would make a resurgence in tandem with that title's deeper customization features.

* ThatOneBoss: Sakura, the champion of Baseball, is often considered to be an annoyance. She often pitches slow-moving balls that are impossible to get a good swing out of, if they don't end up counting as Balls. She and her team are also able to get Home Runs easily. Beating her often requires waiting for her to sweat while pitching (resulting in her throwing shots for a home run) or using Splitter Ball shots (which her team will often bat at, resulting in Foul Balls).
