No, simulation sports games are boring.
I mean, you play video games to win. The idea is that if you're good enough, you'll win. So you play a baseball sim, start a franchise... and win 162 games, sweep the playoffs and world series... then you get to do it again... this isn't a simulation, it's a fantasy. It's impossible in real life. If the games were made to be more "realistic", more of an actual simulation, you'd lose some games. Often for reasons outside of your control. And nobody wants to invest a couple of hours into a video game, lose, and then try to convince themselves they made some progress.
Nintendo is better off making games like Mario Tennis or Mario Golf where the presentation is whimsical and fun and you don't bat an eye at the fact that you're winning every match any more than you would at something like this.
