Nintendo seems to be having the best time ever, in 2022, considering the recent success it has witnessed. Firstly, Pokemon Legends: Arceus swayed the players in January and is still doing so. And then Kirby and the Forgotten Land also turned into a smash hit. Well, it looks like the streak is going to continue further with another potential hit in Nintendo Switch Sports.

But the most interesting thing about Nintendo Switch Sports is that it has managed to somehow mesmerize the fans in one segment for which the publisher has been criticized in the past. That’s the online gaming mode for its various titles. Mostly, they have been average in offering a good experience to the players in this category. However, things are different this time following the debut of Switch Sports.

Famous YouTuber Zach, from SwitchForce, recently uploaded an interesting video on his channel. In the video, he tried to explain how the ongoing online mode in Switch Sports appears to be unreal.

That should give a player a feeling of satisfaction, right? But that wasn’t the case with Zach. Because he wondered whether his easy experience with Switch Sports’ online mode was even real or not. That is, he basically said that he initially thought that the online mode was fake as it’s not possible to provide smooth gameplay and all the transitions in quick succession with consistency.

However, he did notice that only the first online match that you play is, in fact, a fake one. Nintendo tries to trick the players into believing that they are going against a real human opponent. Actually, they initially play with the computer-generated bots.

But after that, Nintendo Switch Sports actually offers an authentic online mode with real players competing with each other in different sports. According to Zach, he wasn’t able to believe this because of Nintendo’s reputation of providing poor online gameplay.
