#HolidayGiftGuide - Get the Whole Family Active with Nintendo Switch Sports! + Nintendo Holiday Deals

  *DISCLOSURE* Thank you to Nintendo for providing product samples in order to facilitate this post.  All thoughts are strictly my own. 

Video games are always a hot gift idea and this year you can give the whole family the gift of active entertainment with Nintendo Switch Sports!


Not only super fun for family game night but playing is a great way to get everyone active – from kicking and spiking to swinging and beyond – with a choice between soccer, volleyball, bowling, tennis, badminton and chambara!


Bring the thrill of your favorite sports to life, in your living room or online globally, in the continuation of the Wii Sports™ series!


Take the competition online, rise through the ranks, and earn in-game rewards. Strive to reach the Pro League in every sport!


Your Sportsmate is your avatar in Spocco Square, a sprawling complex where all the sports matches are held. Customize your Sportsmate’s appearance and add wild accessories to capture your unique style. You can even use your Mii™ character! Earn more items by playing online in random matchmaking to change your look over time.


Get moving* with Soccer, Volleyball, Bowling, Tennis, Badminton, and Chambara (Swordplay) using Joy-Con™ controllers! Controls are intuitive, so you can hit the court (or lanes, or field, or arena) and get started. With controlled motions you can curve your bowling ball, add spin to a tennis shot, or even use a Joy-Con with the Leg Strap accessory to kick the ball in a Soccer Shootout. 


Every family can benefit from a little more time being active together.  Gift your family with Nintendo Switch Sports and be their hero this holiday season!
