Yeah, Wii Sports would have been amazing. Nintendo is literally the only company in the world to put on ice one of the highest selling gaming brands worldwide - twice! First they did it with Super Mario Bros. and then with Wii Sports. It's like they are afraid of success or something.

Here's hope for Switch Sports at e3. I'd die for a new Wii Sports and all my friends asked if there'll be another title in the series.

It's like you said, there's still appeal for the game. Nintendo has many great party games, Mario Kart, Mario and Wii Party, maybe even splatoon in the future. Sad to see them drop the wii sports brand this much.

There definitely is! The thing people seem to miss about the Wii is that it was designed as a disruptive product. Disruptive products are "crappy products for crappy costumers". And the theory of disruption says you have to move upmarket with your product (get into more demanding market segemnts that are not as "crappy" and easy to satisfy). People mistakenly thought the Wii U was this product - but moving upmarket for Nintendo means making motion control good enough for the hardcore gamers. And that's exactly what the Switch has the potential to be: Splatoon is motion controlled e-sports and a competitve Switch Sports with online play would sell extremely well.
